We are very proud to have had the opportunity to participate in the Turner Prize-winning artist and Oscar-winning filmmaker, Steve McQueen's latest project - Year 3.
Earlier this month he unveiled one of his most ambitious contemporary art projects to date at Tate Britain Art Gallery in Pimlico.
This vast new work of art is one of the most ambitious visual portraits of citizenship ever undertaken, in one of the world’s largest and most diverse cities.There are 76,146 pupils from 1,504 schools forming a portrait of London - the class photos, taken last summer are now on display in the gallery.
It is free to visit so why not go along and search for Walker! Our Year 4 classes will be going on a trip to see themselves soon!
Each half term, children throughout Walker will be finding out about a famous artist, sculptor, designer or architect. It is important that we know and understand how art and design both reflect and shape our history, and also how it can contribute to the culture and creativity of our school.
