Facilitated art-based workshops for ESOL Learners
Join us on a journey to explore why the British Musuem is the ‘temple of the muses’ and how museums have
been used for artistic inspiration and to make human connections. This practical art-based workshop will explore the exhibition through creative approaches, blending ESOL through art technqiues and approaches.
About the exhibition:
In 1881 the French sculptor Auguste Rodin visited London for the first time. On a trip to the British
Museum, he saw the Parthenon sculptures and was instantly captivated by the beauty of these ancient Greek masterpieces.
A hundred years after his death, see a selection of Rodin’s works – including his iconic sculptures The
Thinker and The Kiss – in a new light. This major exhibition will feature original plaster, bronze and marble examples of many of Rodin’s sculptures on loan from the Musée Rodin in Paris. For the first time, they will be shown alongside some of
the Parthenon sculptures that the artist so admired, as well as selected objects from his own collection of antiquities.
Experience the magnificent sculpture of a modern master, and explore how the ancient world shaped his
artistic vision.
