COLLABORATIVE MURALS CREATED WITH LINE, MUSIC, AND MOVEMENT!
For this lesson, students drew inspiration from the abstract artwork of Wassily Kandinsky and the music of Earth Wind and Fire. The students listened to music and drew what they heard. They used expressive lines to create large murals that represented a specific song. The students were given the opportunity to learn the connection between visual arts, music, and dance. ARTIST INSPIRATION Wassily Kandinsky was an influential Russian painter who created some of the first abstract artwork. Most of Kandinsky’s artwork was inspired by his love of music.
