Preparing for Monet & the Impressionists...

 

 

Well, the exhibition is finally here.  We didn't finish our Impressionists study last year, but I'm planning to pick it up again now.  Our national museum, Te Papa, is hosting the exhibition.  They have put up a list of all the paintings that are included in the exhibition, so we can now have a look at each of them before we go. We'll just start from the top of the list and look at one or two each week.

There are some great education links within the Te Papa website.  This one suggests several questions to ask students about some of the paintings.

Hi Rach, yes I thought the Te Papa website was really helpful, especially if you have done no artist study. I don't think I'll take all the kids, most likely just Ronise and Sophie, the boys can do other things! It really is a 'once in a life time!'
PS. I use your blog as a spring board to other blogs using the top right hand cormer link, a good way for me to see any of your updates!

Oh, I'm so pleased for you (and envious, if truth be told). That will be amazing!! Be sure to share your links with us at the Yahoo artist study group.

Don't you love it when there is a good art exhibition on locally!! The opportunity to see real, life-sized pieces of art can't be missed IMHO!!
