Few topics are as transversal and present in education, art, and life as identity. This edition of Art in the Classroom invites participants to reflect on what defines, distinguishes, and unites us, to discover artistic references, and to explore identity through the tools of visual arts.
Name, body, traces, objects and places, relationships, image, or action will be some of the elements of our playground. Through a dynamic and participatory methodology, work with artworks, observation sessions, reflection, and debate will alternate with creative workshops.
This course is therefore an opportunity to explore the relationships between the physical, social, and cultural spheres, to build bridges between art and school or didactics, and to enjoy discovering our own navels.
PROGRAMME
- Objective and subjective elements of identity
