Au premier semestre, dans le cadre d’une séquence intitulée “Art is alive”, les élèves de 4C et de 4E ont travaillé sur des œuvres picturales célèbres de la peinture américaine et britannique. A l’écrit, ils se sont inspirés du roman de David Levithan, Everyday, et ont imaginé qu’ils étaient un des personnages de l’œuvre d’art, donnant vie à cette dernière. A l’oral, ils ont réalisé ce qu’on appelle des verbal descriptions, que les musées développent de plus en plus actuellement pour proposer une expérience muséale aux personnes atteintes de cécité.

A travers leurs travaux, ils vous proposent un voyage dans l’art anglo-saxon !
