Art outing and lunch in Montreux

On Friday the 13th of September the MYP 1 and 2 students enjoyed a lovely and enriching Art outing and lunch in Montreux.  They looked at several sculptures placed along the lake by various artists.  The sculptures were part of a juried biennale exposition http://www.biennale.ch/en. 

 

Students were asked to sketch one of the sculptures that was meaningful to them in some way.   They will use their sketches for further research that will help them begin their art projects.  Their first MYP unit in Art is on identity and the roles they play in various communities.  The final project will be pretend sculpture proposals that they have created to submit for the next art exposition in 2021 in Montreux.
