Description

Grade 6 visual arts surveys major periods and schools of Western art. Students revisit the classical ideals of Greece and Rome and the Gothic, then compare Rococo playfulness with Neoclassical order, Romantic emotion with Realist observation, and the light-filled moments of Impressionism with the bold experiments of Post-Impressionism. They finish with the new materials and engineering of the Industrial Revolution — iron, glass and steel — in buildings, bridges and monuments.
