4th grade







For this project 4th Grade looked at the work of both Kieth Haring and Piet Mondraian.  Mondrian is know for is Simple shapes and use of primary colors.  Mondrian Painted in the style De Stijl as a reaction to the crazyness of the world around him.  He tried to find order and simplicity through art.  Haring is know for his simple figures and bright colors he worked this was because he was reacting to the crazyneness he saw in the world around him and he wanted to bring beauty to the world.  I love that these 2 artist have a similar motivation to create art but very differnt styles.  Students attempted to merge their two styles into one.
