Kandinsky Circles

This term we studied a little about the Russian born painter Wassily Kadinsky.  He is a more modern artist and is known for his "abstract" paintings which were supposedly the first of their kind.  Many of his pictures involve concentric circles--a circle inside a circle, inside a circle,etc.--and they even seem to be a theme among much of his body of works.  After looking at several of his more famous works, we  emulated his theme by making some concentric circles of our own.  Each student made two circles--their size and choice of design to hang on our tree.  It makes for a very large as well as interesting collaborative project.  You can check it out in the stairwell beside the K-2 room.  Enjoy!
