10/22 - Marcel Duchamp

Today we learned about artist Marcel Duchamp.  Duchamp was a French painter who enjoyed trying new, wacky, or unusual ideas that others had not tried before.  One of his favorite things to do was to drop pieces of string on paper.

Our activity was similar to Duchamp's favorite art technique.  We dipped string into paint and dropped (and some dragged) it onto papers.  The kids had a lot of fun trying different ways of dropping their string!
