Venice Biennale Australian Schools call-out:
This is a call-out open to all Australian primary and secondary schools. The aim is for students to work together in designing themes and producing works of art around issues that are important to them. It’s an opportunity to consider cross-curriculum projects with other subject teachers in the school, and to engage in the ABC’s social media space Pool. This project is part of the Australian Venice Biennale Education Resource.
Imagine…
A group show of your students’ artwork presented by Australia at the Venice Biennale. We invite your school to contribute.
What to do?
Your students to curate an exhibition of up to five students’ artwork (one artwork each). Give the exhibition a name, write a curatorial statement about the theme of the exhibition and include a description of each work & why it has been included. the exhibition should reflect the interests of the students & what is important in their lives.
You might even like to install the exhibition at school and have an opening night party!
