The Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA), San Diego visited Zamorano to offer 5th grade students an interactive art experience called the Valise Project inspired by renowned 20th century French artist, Marcel Duchamp, who designed miniatures of his works and carried them in suitcases to share with others.
Each class picked a topic they were interested in and were introduced to the Valise pertaining to that topic. Below are photos from California Dreamin by Max Greis (where students created a book cover depicting something important to them) Real Image by Ruben Ochoa (where stuDents created an Alebrije) and Field Box by Alison Moritsugu (where students painted a landscape on a log).
This was a great experience, thank you ICA San Diego!
4th grade students this week created Pop art inspired by an onomatopoeia. I provided students with a variety of words they could pick from. Focus here was to overlap letters to create interest, use bright colors and change the letters to appear different so they could provide more meaning to the word(creating shadows/ changing line to ziz zag or wavy). I also wrote directions after demonstrating so students would have visual cues to look at.
