Gallery + Studio: Experiments in Three Dimensions
For ages 6 to 12 with accompanying adult(s)
-
With artistJennie Smith earned her MFA from UC Berkeley. When she is not drawing in her own studio, she can be found at the de Young Museum making art with kids from all over the Bay Area.
Modern artists like Alexander Calder, Isamu Noguchi, and others investigated color, shape, rhythm, and balance in their works on view in Dimensionism. In this workshop led by artist Jennie Smith, work on your own or with one another to create sculptural artworks using paper, cardboard, wonder foam, and wire. Then, talk about your own experiments and process in a group discussion, posing open-ended questions just as these artists did.
