ARTIST ROOMS On Tour is an inspired partnership with the Art Fund - the fundraising charity for works of art, and the Scottish Government, making available the ARTIST ROOMS collection of international contemporary art to galleries throughout the UK. ARTIST ROOMS is jointly owned by Tate and National Galleries of Scotland and was established through The d’Offay Donation in 2008, with the assistance of the National Heritage Memorial Fund, the Art Fund and the Scottish and British Governments.































Opposites We used the following words to describe the paintings of Alex Katz on display. We then matched them into pairs of opposites and tried to find a painting that best represented each?

Summer

Inland Far

Day

Reflection Near Night

Shadow Winter

Coastal

We then made ‘opposite’ drawings of our own?
















How much did we enjoy ourselves - before and after!
