= **Twentieth Century Hispanic Artists **=

==**A Project Created by the 4th Grade Students of Denver Public Schools' ** == ==**Florida Pitt Waller K-8 School ** in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month! ==


= =  **This is a collaborative, multidisciplinary project on four Hispanic artists of the 20th Century: Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, and José David Alfaro Siqueiros. ****Each class studied one of the artists: Mrs. Mullans' class studied Siquieros. Mrs. Baumgartner's class studied Orozco. Mr. Kyvik's class studied Rivera, and Mrs. Graves' class studied Kahlo.

With our school librarian, Peggy Obert, each class learned facts about the artist's life and art. With the art teacher, Holly Dout, they viewed the artist's work and discussed themes, techniques and styles. Then each student created a piece based on the artist's work. With the technology teacher, Anne Weaver, each class contributed information, examples of their work** **and comments** **to create this interactive wiki space.** **Viva el Arte!**
