Field Trips - Escola Básica e Secundária Gonçalves Zarco

Art has its own version of beauty, clearly showing just how subjective the concept of beauty really is. 

With that in mind we visited 2 different types of museums. On the 3rd of December we visited the Museum of Contemporary Art and on the 17th we visited the Museum Universe of Memories - a repository of memories built throughout the life of João Carlos Abreu as a journalist, traveller, poet, writer, politician, actor and artist, as he travelled through the world.

We asked our students to choose one piece from both museums and share their own interpretation of them, share what, in their eyes, made those pieces beautiful.

Here's a glimpse of the lecture on Art & Beauty the kids attended before visiting the museum. The museum staff was awesome and even gave their lecture in English to keep to topic of the English lesson and the project the kids are working on.
