News Sixth Form Art and Design Trip to the Tate Modern 31.01.2025

The entire cohort of Lower Sixth and Upper Sixth Art and Design students visited the Tate Modern Gallery to explore two current exhibitions: Antony McCall’s ‘Solid Light’ and ‘Electric Dreams: Art and Technology Before the Internet’.

Students used forms of journalling to record their observations and to throw around ideas and thoughts in response to what they viewed and experienced. Creative thinking in relation to movement, space and perceptive were considered as was the notion of what defines the possibilities of sculpture. It was thought-provoking for us all to consider how artists from across the world have responded to technological innovation and the emergence of the internet.

The visit proved to be a fantastic opportunity critically examine artworks and develop their own individual lines of enquiry.
