"School Rhythms--Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer" created by Pre-K through third graders welcomes everyone to PS 111. Each painted panel depicts a different season made of birch panels and cutout shapes of muslin fabric in vibrant colors. The significant placement of the work makes a noteworthy contribution to the physcial and emotional environment of the school.

     
     
 

PS 225, Region 7, Brighton Beach, Brooklyn
STUDIO Artist: Gewn-lin Goo

Students spent several weeks studying elements of their community before skteching out "Brighton Beach Reflection" onto pieces of poplar wood. Using wood burning tools, they outlined the images, and then painted in the details. The effect is a colorful and lively display of the students’ community, complete with an applied lattice-work fence and seagulls suspended in the sky. The whole school community can enjoy this installation daily in its permanent home in the school cafeteria.
