Children, Art, Artists

This publication offers a guided view of the exhibit “The Expressive Languages of Children, the Artistic Language of Alberto Burri,” which includes works by children from the municipal infant-toddler center through elementary school. The exhibit explores some of the encounters between children and works of art, which offer children and teachers opportunities to approach and explore different materials, as suggested by certain aspects of Burri’s work. Along with the exhibit texts, the catalogue includes essays discussing the relationship between schools and the city, children and art, and pedagogy and the atelier.

“Long term, we want parents and policy makers to understand that it is the meaning children make out of their experiences that is of value and once they learn how to be such good problem solvers, they will move on to reinvigorate the rest of the educational system, which sorely needs their creativity and innovative thinking.”
—Ellen Khokha

“It is through these opportunities to talk and think about the struggles and concerns of being a teacher that we can become more aware that teaching is a journey that involves movement between poles of certainty and uncertainty, knowing and not knowing, joy and sorrow, triumph and failure.”
