We have been continuing our history of art learning this week and explored the idea of the chronology of art. The children sorted art into time order starting with the oldest. They successfully identified that the cave paintings and classical art were the oldest. We discussed the invention of the camera and how this impacted and changed art. Artists moved onto creating more abstract art and become more experimental in their ideas. The children created a timeline of the artwork and added the different art movements over time. Some children took there learning even further and added key historical events to their timeline
