The session will delve into Renaissance Art, Impressionist Art, Contemporary Art and much more. Each episode will feature an art project inspired by an artist from that particular movement, it will use elements of the style discussed and guide children to create homemade interpretations.

Looking back

What: A four-part BBC series, written and presented by Michael Wood, titled “In the Footsteps of Alexander the Great (1998)” is being screened on the website of IIC. Wood retraces Alexander the Great’s amazing journey from Greece to India, searching for the truth behind the legend and experiencing the tremendous scale of his achievements. Using ancient historians as his guides, Wood follows Alexander’s journey as closely as possible, crossing deserts and rivers, from Turkey to war-torn Afghanistan. As the journey progresses, he recreates the drama of Alexander’s epic marches and bloody battles. All along the way he finds proof of the survival of the legends surrounding Alexander, a leader whose life has excited the world’s imagination for 2,000 years.
