Transnational Dialogic Art Gathering with students from Malta and Spain.

This final stage of an e-twinning project between the Mikiel Anton Vassalli College – Malta School of Art and I.E.S Alfonso II School in Spain will involve an online Transnational Dialogic Art Gathering with the participation of students and educators from both schools. About 30 students ages 12 to 16, together with tutors, staff and community members from both countries will join for the Dialogic Art gathering on Thursday 3rd June starting at 17.30.

Two artworks, one from a Maltese public collection and another by a Spanish Artist, will be explored during this gathering. Students were given the opportunity to vote and select the works from a pool of 6 famous art works. The artworks that received top votes were Caravaggio’s Beheading of St John and Las Meninas by Velasquez.

Ahead of the Dialogic Art Gathering, students will have time to observe and explore these two famous works and select elements of both artworks that mostly resonate with them. In other words, the method used focuses more on critical thinking, feelings, emotions, and personal relation with the artwork rather than facts and historic knowledge about the work.
The MAVC- Malta School of Art would like to invite all those interested to join in this experience to register by filling the following form.

A code will be sent to access the event on Microsoft teams.
