We are excited to announce the dates of the Prep & Senior Art exhibition, a selection of pupil work will be on display in the gallery from 7 - 30 June 2015.

Pupils in the Art Team at Brighton College Abu Dhabi were busy yesterday creating their new chalk drawings in the school corridors. Here are a few of their beautiful creations and thought provoking messages, what will they think of next?

The Art Team have been drawing on the walls this week, creating their own temporary works. We can't wait to see what they do next!

A selection of pupils at Brighton College Abu Dhabi will be invited to create illustrations for a book written by Malin Garemo. Malin is a mother of three, a dietician and an assistant professor at Zayed University. Her book ’Where does it come from’ is an educational story for children about where food originates. The successful pupil illustrations will have a chance at being published!

We are looking forward to the next pupil exhibition at Brighton College Abu Dhabi!

Pupils in the Prep & Senior school spent last Thursday & Sunday learning about 'Well Being'. They completed workshops in Art, Drama, Music and PE; their achievements are now on display in The Gallery until the end of term, alongside the ‘Objects of the Emirates’ exhibition.

Some lovely 'Objects of the Emirates' work by Year 5 pupils with Mrs Marais.

There were some (very well behaved) wild animals in the Art room today making 3D work. It's great to see so many of the Prep pupils supporting the Hosn House charity.

Some fabulous collage work made in the Year 3 & 4 Art ECA with Mrs Bourn this week. Wow!

Some fabulous drawings of still life objects by Year 8 and Year 5 pupils. Well done Leen, Haneefah, Hyeonbeen, Alora, Emily, Katie & Sungmin!

The Year 5, 10 and 12 pupils at Brighton College Abu Dhabi had a thought provoking time with visiting artist Amira Rahim today. A comment from a Year 5 pupil to Amira - “You were inspired by all of those artists but now you have inspired me”. The pupils were welcoming and enthusiastic, it was also wonderful to hear their opinions and ideas about Abstract Art. Amira's exhibition will be on display in The Gallery until 13 November.

Pinch pots & ceramic fun with Year 6 today in the Art room. Next week we will be using the slab building techniques to create work for the 'Objects of the Emirates' exhibition in November.

All pupils are encouraged to submit Art work for the ‘Objects of the emirates’ exhibition. Get creative and drop by the Art department for advice. They can be painted, drawn, sculptural, photographic, collaged or made with mixed media. The theme is OBJECTS of the Emirates so think coffee pots, traditional jewellery, incense burners, Emirati clothing, henna packets, majlis cushions, falconry accessories. We can’t wait to see your ideas! Prize winners will be announced in November.

In November we will be launching the next pupil exhibition 'Objects of the Emirates'. All pupils in the college are encouraged to submit Art work, there will be prizes too!
