Life Around Me with Primary School Students

Life Around Me with Primary Education Level 1 Students (Grades 1 to 4) 

This program invites children to explore natural life and their environment through works of contemporary art. 

Visiting Istanbul Modern's collection exhibition with a museum educator, the children focus on artworks such as Neşet Günal's "Earth Man", Nedim Günsür's "Miner", Orhan Peker's “The Fisher Boy and Cats", Neş'e Erdok's "Shoe Shiner", Burhan Doğançay's "The Magnificent Age” and Aydan Murtezaoğlu’s “Untitled“. The children identify the basic concepts in the artworks, generate ideas, and share their opinions on the life of living things as an element of natural life. The program focuses on the relationship between human beings, nature, and their environment.
