“Art in the School” @ Högastensskolan in Helsingborg

During week 9 in 2012, all the pupils in grade 7 at Högastensskolan in Helsingborg participated in a crash course in contemporary art: Konst i skolan (Art in the School). The pupils were drawing and painting according to their own interests and their works were exhibited on the 14th of April in Malmö at Konstfrämjandet Skåne, who were also the initiators of the art course with me as the tutoring artist. The art week also consisted of an artist talk, painting with UV-sensitive colour and discussions about art in general and their art works in particular, as well as democracy and critical thinking along with comradeship.
