Year 10 Modernism Paintings
Finally, we are thrilled to share a beautiful range of Year 10 paintings from their recent assignment on Modernism. These works are accomplished examples of students’ understanding of the principles and approach of early to mid 20th century painters. The entire selection of Year 10 works are currently on show in the Luci Campbell Memorial Cabinets opposite the Lecture Theatre entrance.
This week’s banner is from Year 10 student Isobel Murray’s Modernism assignment.
