Wyckoff Teacher Resource Center Outreach Suitcases Places, Spaces, and Faces: Modern and Contemporary Sculpture Outreach Suitcase “The materials immediately inspired great creativity . and the Educator Resource Guide inspired me to create an accordion-book project. Thanks for the supplies and inspiration.” —Elementary Parent Art Docent ABOUT THE SUITCASE The Places, Spaces, and Faces suitcase is a resource for examining modern sculpture from the late nineteenth century to the contemporary period, emphasizing objects from the collections of SAM. These objects are intended to inspire artistic creation by students and provide an interactive approach to sculpture, including exploration of materials, techniques, meaning, and history. By using these objects, students can explore not only the formal and expressive elements of sculpture, but also how sculpture conveys social concerns and issues of identity. Book this suitcase online at www.seattleartmuseum.org/programs-and-learning/schools-and-educators/teacher- resource-center/suitcases. LOOKING QUESTIONS Encourage your students to look closely at the objects in the suitcase and images from SAM’s Collection with questions like: • Describe what you see in this sculpture.

  • 1 Hello Families! Lots of Exciting Things Have Been Happening at OSP The
    Hello families! Lots of exciting things have been happening at OSP the past couple of weeks! The highlight was a visit from our friend, Bobby, who is the head gardener at the park. He taught us about the plants, trees, and shrubs that we see in our everyday life. In the Valley, we learned about snowberries, sword ferns, dogwood trees, and ginkgos. We have begun to recognize which kinds of berries make humans sick (snowberries) and what colors the tree leaves are turning (red, yellow, orange). +her’s names, explore our most immediate surroundings at the park, and familiarize themselves with the available activities of each day. 1 In the North Meadow, we are exploring different kinds of plants and wildlife. The Meadow is home to Douglas firs and Garry Oaks, as well as all sorts of grasses we can roll in. The Meadow is also where our best train-spotting occurs! Emerging fine motor and artistic skills: drawing people! 2 Using magnifying glasses to look at plant clippings Questions we have been asking about the sculptures: What colors/shapes do you see in this work of art? What do those colors and shapes remind you of? Do we all see the same thing when we look at this sculpture? Or do we notice different things? Questions we will begin to ask: Why do you think these colors were used in this sculpture? Do colors have meaning? Do colors relate to emotions? Do you see movement in this work of art? (i.e. Does the sculpture look like it’s floating/flying/tipping over?) We’ve encountered a few sculptures on our explorations.

  • Olympic Sculpture Park
    MAP & GUIDE WELCOME TO SEATTLE ART MUSEUM’S OLYMPIC SCULPTURE PARK SEATTLE’S GREEN SPACE FOR ART AND PEOPLE The award-winning Olympic Sculpture Park is downtown Seattle’s largest green space. Free and open to the public, the sculpture park provides a welcoming outdoor space year-round for everyone to experience art and the natural beauty of the Northwest. Wander the park to discover sculptures among native plants, dip your toes in Elliott Bay, or bike along the waterfront, taking in stunning views over Puget Sound to the Olympic Mountains. Stroll along the 2,200-foot Z-shaped path that zigzags from the pavilion to the water’s edge to tour the park and its surroundings. “We aspired to create a sculpture park at the intersection of the city and the water, and to define a new model for bringing art to the public,” said Marion Weiss of Weiss/Manfredi, the lead designers for the park. As a former industrial site, the sculpture park’s nine acres have undergone extensive restoration, achieving a range of environmental goals including brownfield redevelopment, creation of a Chinook salmon habitat and a pocket beach, extensive use of native plantings, and the capture and use of onsite rainwater. The sculpture collection features major works by influential artists from the past half-century up to the present day. Temporary art installations during summer months add vibrancy and an element of surprise to the park experience. The Olympic Sculpture Park was made possible by a public and private partnership that began with a collaboration between the Seattle Art Museum and the Trust for Public Land.
