Mira Schendel exhibition at the Tate Modern with the sixth art pupils.

Yr12 and 13 pupils visit the Tate Modern and the work of Mira Schendel(1919-1988).  

On Wed 20 November Yr12 explored and worked from the permanent collection at the Tate Modern until we were met by Yr13 pupils and visited the work of Swiss Born artist Mira Schendel, who is regarded to be one of Brazil's most important artists from the 20th Century.  After fleeing a war - devastated Europe for Brazil she soon settled into a newly dynamic society with its own emerging art movements.   Her work  deals with the themes of existence, self understanding, faith and language.  It is a very unusually hung show and our students picked up lots of different ideas.

Year 10 Royal College of Art Trip

On Friday 8th November, 15 students from Year 10 were invited by ReachOut RCA to take part in a Life Drawing workshop at The Royal College of Art in Battersea. Students were lead by current MA students in various drawing activities that ranged from quick 5 second responses to making their own individual and group stop frame animations. It was a throughly enjoyable day that challenged the students perception of figure drawing and moving image in an exciting and engaging way.

Frieze Trip 2013

Frieze Art Fair 2013

Pupils from Yr11 and 13 visited the Frieze Art Fair 2013 in Regents Park.  We enjoyed fabulous sunshine as we drew from the sculptures in the sculpture garden.  The theme was very reflective this year!  Once inside the fair HB pupils experienced a global snap shot of contemporary art today.  It was a rewarding day and pupils were able to resource different  ideas and artists for their personal work in their coursework projects.
