Top row: The second grade art class used a bottle of glue to draw a landscape on black paper. Once the glue dried, students used pastels to create colorful landscapes. From left to right is work by Emma Mowatt ’32, Clara Neal ’32, and Arianna Jo ’32. Bottom row: Fifth grade students completed a collaborative game, “Exquisite Corpse.” The project requires each student to take a turn drawing on a sheet of paper, folding it to their contribution, and then passing it to the next player for a further contribution. The game gained popularity in the 1920s when it was adopted as a technique by artists of the Surrealist movement to generate collaborative compositions.
