Bilingual Art Learning at the Metropolitan Museum of Art 大都会艺术博物馆双语艺术课堂

On Dec.1, Mr.Wang taught a special theme art lesson, “Power, Wealth, and Protection” to the dual language digital art class students (803/804) at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. This special art lesson featured 3 artwork, “the Altar Set”, “Gusoku”, “Armor for man and horse” from the Met Chinese Art, Japanese Art, and Arms and Amor collections.

During the 1 hour Museum lesson, students studied “Power, Wealth, and Protection” by detailed observation on the ancient artifacts, live-sketching of the collection, and multi-modal activities feeling the materials and cultural differences in the galleries. Students further explored how modern society structures power & wealth and what “protection” means physically and mentally.

12月1日，王老师在大都会博物馆为双语数字艺术班（803/804）的学生们上了一堂特别的关于社会”权力、财富和保护”的主题艺术课。这堂特别的艺术课展示了来自大都会博物馆中国艺术、日本艺术和欧洲骑士铠甲的藏品中的三件艺术品：”青铜祭器组”、”武士铠甲”和 “人与马的盔甲”。

在一个小时的博物馆课程中，学生们通过对古代文物的细致观察、对藏品的现场写生，以及在展厅中感受材料和文化差异的多模式活动，学习了关于社会的 “权力、财富和保护”的知识并进一步思考了当下社会中的权利与财富结构与“保护”对我们来说的现实与抽象意义。
