Seraphine Pick: Assumed Identities     5 June 2010 - 26 September 2010
This major collection of Pick’s work features inventive peopled landscapes and portraits that fuse imagination, fantasy and memory. Not to be missed. With this exhibition Seraphine Pick would make an ideal artist model for senior secondary art students in 2010.

Art Attack!      Level 1-8
This is the visit where the only artworks that are looked at by the class are the ones that the students have chosen themselves. They also get to explain the reasons for their choices.

Card Sharks      Level 1-4
Students are given cards such as ‘The artwork I would choose for my mother’ or ‘An artwork I would love to throw in the skip’ to place under artworks. This is a fascinating and entertaining approach to looking at an exhibition.

Design Your Own Exhibition      Level 1-4
This visit looks at the work of the curator in the process of selecting and arranging works in an exhibition space. Students will curate their own exhibition of miniature artworks.
