Good morning everyone!
Let’s take a virtual tour of Aberdeen Art Gallery – https://bit.ly/2AR37X5
With a duration of 2h30 minutes, we highly recommend that you view the tour throughout the week. If you prefer, focus on a specific gallery (Sculpture Court, Collecting Art etc).
Throughout week 1, we are going to focus on identifying our favourite piece of art within the gallery, sharing our thoughts/opinions and researching the artist.
Click on the Sway below to see everything you will need to complete this activity. An example has also been provided. Good luck and remember to share your work with your class teacher.
Thank you for sharing this, Mr Reid. I had no idea you could do a virtual tour of the Gallery. I like the way it shows you the different pieces of art and talks about them. I haven’t been to the Gallery since it has been done up, so I am really looking forward to watching the whole tour.
Thank you for sharing, Mrs Still. Enjoy the tour and if you have a favourite piece of art in the gallery, please let us know 🙂
‘Habitat’ is probably my favourite piece in the whole gallery. It made a very strong impression on me the first time I saw it. The contrast between the perceived ‘cosiness’ of a sleeping bag and the hard material that it is made from brings home the harsh reality that people living on the streets may have nothing to call ‘home’ other than a sleeping bag. I found it very moving.
Thank you for sharing, Ms Rees.
