Project
name: Computer Metamorphoses
- art - primary schools, (students aged 11+12, grade 5)
Description
of project:
This
project aims to develop students' attitude to art, their observation,
creativity and the use of ICT for creating artworks. We would like to
start co-operation with national galleries to present and guide young
students into the world of art on national and international level.
(In our case - Slovenia
we will be in touch with one of the persons of our national Gallery,
http://www.ng-slo.si/ngslo/ and
we expect other partners to do the same in their country.)
Project
plan - steps:
Each
partner school chooses one of the artworks (they could scan it or find
it on the web) of their national artist and send it to us (viljenka.savli@guest.arnes.si).
All
the sent paintings will be published on our site and sent to the
partner schools.
Each
partner chooses all the paintings of the other partners (if there are
5 partners that means 4 paintings) except their own.
Students
in the partner school try to paint the picture by using computer
graphic programs (paintbrush, Painter, CorelDraw or others)
After
drawing it they also write a short opinion about their painting:
- why did they choose that painting
- what was the most difficult part to paint
- where were they most successful and why?
They
send their artworks and opinions to the project co-ordinator and also
publish them on their site if they have one.
The
artworks will be published in the electronic gallery.
The
main aim of the project is to get to know and understand other
national painters' artworks and to develop students' own
interpretation of art.
