1001 Reasons to (dis)OBEY
Les élèves ont pu reconnaître, dans le travail de ce street artist américain, de nombreux thèmes étudiés en cours d'anglais: Climate change, Gun ownership in the USA, Black Lives Matter ...
Les élèves de T11/T12 ont ensuite imaginé et réalisé des oeuvres "à la manière de Shepard Fairey". Bravo à eux!
School trip to an art gallery of Shepard Fairey’s works
During this school trip, we had a tour of the museum with a guide. It was clear and efficient. We learned that Shepard Fairey was a very committed artist who defends plenty of causes as well as denounces injustice, and it was nice to find out the story behind each artwork. Furthermore I enjoyed searching for Shepard Fairey's logo (or brand name) in each of his paintings.
One of his works that I found the most interesting was the one in which he depicted a flying man who was inspired by mythology. Also, he used shades of light blue in this one which differs from the red and dark tones he often uses to catch the eye.
