Dear colleagues and Thyssen team:

I am Mercedes and I work with First graders. 

In September I ask them to draw themselves and I display all the portraits on the wall like a big poster.

 Using "Franzie in front of a carved chair" by Kirchner as a model, the children can draw a partner and describe the picture to the class.

Vocabulary: parts of the face, description of hair,   colours, feelings, clothes.

Values: We are  the same, we are different.

Games: Who is who

Craftwork: A collage using cut-outs from magacines.

Hello Mercedes,

I answer the same as our colleague Ana in the email below.

Thank you very much for writing! I love your proposal, and it connects with a video that we recorded with the idea of ​​playing Guess who. The video is in Spanish but it can give you some idea to work with your student in the classroom. I give you the link to see the video on Youtube:

Guess who

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7OtCjhD9lE&t=34s

We have also worked with the idea of ​​ physical characteristics and parts of the face with other Cubist portraits. The painter titled The smoker by Juan Gris, or Head of a man, by Picasso. I paste here the link to our website to read the information about the paintings.

The Smoker (Frank Haviland), Juan Gris

Head of a Man, Pablo Picasso

Hello teachers and educators!

I will work with Portraits in my class, to study physical appearence and  how yo describe people, with 2 grade students.

First we will play Guess who Game with Portraits that are in the museum.

Later the students will draw and paint a classmate portrait. He/she will choose a name card from a bag, so all the students will have their Portrait.

With these portraits we can play again Guess Who Game, and at the end we can do an exhibición.

FROM ABSTRACT TO DEFINITE.
Walking arond the museum, the kids will choose some abstract paintings they like.

Once they have selected their favourite one, the children will have to make a description about what they actually are seeing in that painting. That is to say, to transform the painting into something concrete.

Then, with their description of the selected painting, they will paint their own definite and concrete canvas.

In a nutshell, our kids will work different tenses and will practice description techniques.

Thanks mates!

Hello Juan Manuel,

Thank you very much for writing us, I like your idea a lot. There are many artists who made abstract paintings in the collection. I can recommend you the artists of Russian avant-garde where you can also find some women artists. It could be very interesting for you the American Abstract Expressionism. I give you the links where you can find a selection.

On the other hand there are many artists in the collection who work halfway between abstraction and figuration.

Observe this work by Robert Delaunay, at first glance it seems a completely abstract work, but can you discover the figure of a woman with a parasol?

Woman with a Parasol, Robert Delaunay

In this other example of cubist portrait, could you recompose the smoker?

The Smoker (Frank Haviland), Juan Gris

https://www.museothyssen.org/en/collection/artists/gris-juan/smoker-frank-haviland

In this other work it is a little bit more difficult to discover the figure of two woodcutters with an ax cutting wood. Can you see them?

Woodhackers, Bart van der Leck

https://www.museothyssen.org/en/collection/artists/leck-bart-van-der/woodhackers

What about the dancer of David Bomberg?

The Dancer, David Bomberg

And the last one

The Forest, Natalia Goncharova

https://www.museothyssen.org/en/collection/artists/goncharova-natalia/forest

There are a lot of possibilities! I hope you find them useful.

PAST SIMPLE THROUGH MADRID IMAGES

Looking to this painting:

  • Vista de la Carrera de San Jerónimo y el Paseo del Prado con cortejo de carrozas. Atribuido a Jan Val Kessel III

I have thought about a didactic proposal to practice past simple and present simple:

   We will show students in class different paintings from Madrid in old times: Retiro Park, Paseo del Prado, Puerta del Sol…

   They can choose 1 painting ( or more voluntarily) and they have to take a picture of the same place nowadays.

   They will bring their pictures to class and we will compare the painting from the old times with the current photo.

Doing this we can teach and practice:

  • Past simple and present simple.
  • Comparisons
  • Use of connectors (whereas, while, as well as…)

I have only found the painting I have mentioned above, I would like to know more paintings that can be useful for this resource.

Thank you :)

Hello Laura,

I love your idea of comparing real cities with paintings in the collection. The view of Madrid painting is perfect for your activity and it can be very interesting for your students if they know the area of the Paseo del Prado. There are not many paintings with Madrid’s views in the collection but maybe you could do it with other cities in the world, it is easy to find current photos of those places online so that your students can compare the past with the present.

For example, we have a painting by Pissarro with a view of Saint Honoré Street in Paris. I give you the link to our web site and you could look for a current image on Google Maps, the differences will be surprising!

Rue Saint-Honoré in the Afternoon. Effect of Rain, Camille Pissarro,

You can do it the same with other places:

VENICE

The Piazza San Marco in Venice, Canaletto (Giovanni Antonio Canal)

BERLIN

LONDON

NEW YORK

ROME

Dear colleges, 

I'm Ana, an English teacher. Currently I'm teaching pre-schoolers however, I think art is useful for all ages in order to learn more creatively through innovation. 

This week at school we are playing with fruits and other vegetables so as I remember from the second session of the course, I used some paintings to introduce the topics and brainstorm. Later we went out to the school garden where different ones are planted, so that they could spot them out with realia. 

I am thinking about a creative following up activity to practice them in a useful context. Any ideas? 

Thank you so much, this course it's been very interesting, rewarding and motivating.
