Vancouver Art Gallery Fieldtrip: Emily Carr: Into the Forest
On Wednesday, October 25th Encompass 10-12 students will be attending a field trip to the Vancouver Art Gallery for the afternoon. The purpose of the trip is to have an opportunity for students to celebrate and learn about the work of Emily Carr.
The work of Emily Carr is of primary importance to the history of this region. Her view of British Columbia has helped establish a relationship to the landscape through representation and her work has been a major influence on the work of subsequent generations of artists. As part of an ongoing investigation into the work and life of Emily Carr, this exhibition will present an in-depth look at her forest paintings. During the tour students will investigate Carr’s processes and techniques and will be introduced to the formal elements of colour, light and abstraction through sketching from her works. The hands-on section of this tour will focus on oil pastel drawing in the Carr Gallery. This field trip will also help the students gain experience and confidence using public transit, physical activity and to appreciate the tourism and outdoors of Greater Vancouver.
