YES WE ART

This is a summary of the work done by six European schools from The Basque Country, Belgium, Hungary, Italy and Turkey on art as the main topic. The aim of this project is to make students aware of the different ways of communicating through art and how this art becomes part of our own heritage. We will provide children with the oportunity of exploring emblematic artists from the countries involved , and we will use various techniques to version and create art and to share it with others.

WE ARE ARTISTS!!

  
We have started to create art with the help of Jorge Rubio, an artist from the Guggenheim museum.
So far we have worked on three different disciplines: painting, sculpture and drawing. Jorge told us about Zumeta, a famous and colourful Basque painter, and he helped us mix and contrast colours, to create our own work of art as if we were little Zumetas. Here you can see the different steps of a work that changes continuosly. First we painted an abstract; once we had our painting, we decided to experiment with it following the artistical concepts of another emblematic Basque artist called Oteiza. We gave volume to the painting and turned it into a base that would support a sculpture. Now, we had a sculpture to make. We used different shaped wooden sticks to design our sculptures. The final work was really nice!! Don´t ever think that we have finished working. We still have further steps to follow. After making the sculpture,we are drawing it from different views using the technique of perspective.
