Hello everyone, we are the 4th grade A class activity and for Artistic May we research

2
00:00:11,679 --> 00:00:19,280
one of the most famous museums in the world, the Louvre in Paris. We work in groups and choose a

3
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:28,239
piece of art from the Louvre collection, creating our own version of it. We learn about two different

4
00:00:28,239 --> 00:00:36,240
cultures historical periods and artistic techniques most groups selected sculptures

5
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:44,240
especially from ancient egypt and used materials such as clay watercolor and cardboard to recreate

6
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:51,920
them now each group will present their artwork and explain what it represents and how they made it

7
00:00:51,920 --> 00:01:07,340
Our group studied Landscape of the Fisherman, a painting made in 1755 by Giambapiste.

8
00:01:08,019 --> 00:01:18,920
It showed fishermen working in a space full of natural settings and was explained by everyday life and nature.

9
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:30,920
To recreate it, we first used the scene with pencil and then painted it using watercolors.

10
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:41,920
We chose these artworks because we liked its calm atmosphere and pretty landscape.

11
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:53,280
Our group research an Egyptian canoping jar used during mummification.

12
00:01:53,280 --> 00:02:04,280
Ancient Egyptians placed organs inside these jars because they believed in the afterlife.

13
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:16,280
We created it using clay and chose it because it is very interesting and teaches us about Egyptian beliefs.

14
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:34,300
The group created a sculpture inspired by an Egyptian coin from the Louvre.

15
00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:43,300
We used mouldable clay in brown and green and shaped it into a dragon, ending the tiles with a marker.

16
00:02:43,300 --> 00:02:48,300
We displayed it on white cardboard.

17
00:02:49,300 --> 00:02:54,300
We chose this artwork because it was very beautiful.

18
00:02:57,300 --> 00:03:10,580
Our group studied an ancient Egyptian amulet used for protection and decoration.

19
00:03:10,580 --> 00:03:22,580
It is very old and has unusual shapes that could look like a person, bird, or man.

20
00:03:22,580 --> 00:03:30,580
We recreated it using clay and painted it with blue acrylic paint.

21
00:03:30,580 --> 00:03:37,580
We chose this piece because we like its colors and unique design.

22
00:03:37,580 --> 00:03:51,000
Our group chose the Mona Lisa because it's very beautiful, famous and old and we were

23
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,539
curious about who she was.

24
00:03:54,539 --> 00:04:07,020
It was painted by Leonardo da Vinci in the early 1500s and we recreated it by first drawing

25
00:04:07,020 --> 00:04:12,539
which pencil and then coloring it with acrylic paint on cardboard

26
00:04:23,550 --> 00:04:37,680
