4th Grade Tile Project


In the 21st year of the 4th grade tile project, art teacher, Christine Moyer, shared the newly finished tiles currently being installed on the walls of Memorial School. The theme this year was Henri Matisse's cut-outs. 

Henri Matisse (1869-1954) is one of the most influential artist of the 20th century. His stylistic innovations fundamentally altered the course of modern art and affected the art of several generations. His art consists of painting, drawing, sculpture, paper cut-outs, graphic design and book illustrations.

Matisse and his work:

Henri Matisse: The Fall of Icarus (1947)

Henri Matisse: The Sheaf (1953)

Henri Matisse: The Horse, the Rider and the Clown (1947)
