Schools

The Education Department of the museum offers experiences that develop the “life skills” to children in primary schools. These range from the decoding of different emotions to the expression of oneself, and they fall under the concept of a perpendicular learning approach to education by integrating the disciplinary paths related to art and artistic techniques. The activities on Marino Marini have a thematic scheme, so as to focus on the many aspects of artistic creation.

For the 2018/19 school year the thematic proposals available are:

Aloud is a journey that favors narration as a way to establish contact with the art. The path through the museum analyzes a few of the works by Marino Marini, and then focuses on one, inventing a story, nursery rhyme, or poem around it.
The project is included in the Chiavi della città of the City of Florence:

Emotive colors is a path that focuses on color. Color provokes emotions, transmits sensations and communicates moods; color witnesses changes and expresses the meaning of transformation. In a museum dedicated to modern and contemporary art, proposing to children and young people an activity that reflects on creative expressiveness involves them in experiments of corporeal, graphic and pictorial gestures to acquire a deep and stimulating meaning.
The project is included in the Chiavi della città of the City of Florence:

Connecting with Art by Touch (Con-Tatto Arte) is a journey focused on multi-sensoriality. At the Museo Marino Marini some sculptures are able to be explored by touch, and during this visit, the sense of touch is preferred to understand the work of art and its materiality.
The project is included in the Chiavi della città of the City of Florence:

The ABC’s of Art – the collage is dedicated to an avant-garde technique adopted during the beginning of the twentieth century for the creation of works of art, that piques interest also in today’s artists.

Il Dipartimento Educativo del museo si rivolge alla scuola secondaria di primo grado con proposte che sviluppano le “life skills”, a partire dalla decodificazione delle diverse emozioni, all’espressione di sé, e si collocano nell’ambito dell’educazione trasversale agli apprendimenti andando a integrare i percorsi disciplinari relativi all’arte e alle tecniche artistiche. Le attività su Marino Marini hanno un taglio tematico così da mettere a fuoco i diversi aspetti della creazione artistica.

Per l’anno scolastico 2018/19 le proposte tematiche disponibili sono:

Ad alta voce è un percorso che privilegia la narrazione come modo per stabilire un contatto con l’arte. Il percorso nel museo analizza alcune opere di Marino Marini per poi concentrarsi su una, intorno alla quale si inventa una storia, una poesia o una filastrocca. Il progetto è inserito nelle Chiavi della città del Comune di Firenze: www.chiavidellacitta.it/progetti/ad-alta-voce

Colori emotivi è un percorso che si incentra sul colore. Il colore provoca emozioni, trasmette sensazioni e comunica stati d’animo; il colore testimonia cambiamenti ed esprime il senso della trasformazione. In un museo dedicato all’arte moderna e contemporanea, proporre a bambini e ragazzi un’attività che rifletta sull’espressività creativa e li coinvolga in sperimentazioni di gestualità corporea, grafica e pittorica acquista un significato profondo e stimolante. Il progetto è inserito nelle Chiavi della città del Comune di Firenze: www.chiavidellacitta.it/progetti/colori-emotivi

Con-Tatto Arte è un percorso focalizzato sulla multisensorialità. Al Museo Marini alcune sculture si possono toccare e in questo percorso il tatto è l’approccio privilegiato per comprendere l’opera d’arte nella sua matericità. Il progetto è inserito nelle Chiavi della città del Comune di Firenze: www.chiavidellacitta.it/progetti/con-tatto-arte

L’ABC dell’arte – il collage è il percorso dedicato a una tecnica adottata agli inizi del novecento per la creazione di opere d’avanguardia, che suscita interesse anche negli artisti di oggi. Il progetto è inserito nelle Chiavi della città del Comune di Firenze: www.chiavidellacitta.it/progetti/labc-dellarte/

The Education Department proposes guided visits, creative labs and special projects to bring students closer to modern and contemporary art. The proposals take place in the permanent collection and also with the temporary exhibits hosted by the museum.

Come talk about art? is a visit in the form of a dialogue where the participants are engaged in an experience of building knowledge on the works of art by way of a conversation that develops within the group and that everyone can partake in, even if they are not an expert in art.

Alternating School and Work: the museum has activated projects for the school-work alternation scheme that the middle schools that participate may request, agreeing upon projects and programs with the referring teachers that are functional to the museum’s guidelines, as well as, being interesting and meaningful for the students’ professional career.
So far, several school-work alternation projects have been activated, including: the reception of visitors to surveys on customer satisfaction; a peer-to-peer exchange project between high-functioning autistic kids and their peers; the inclusive design of a tactile guided visit in the museum; a project supporting the Alzheimer conference and the reception of two German guests, a person with Alzheimer’s and his carer, during the week dedicated to the learning event of the European Erasmus+ project; and a project to approach modern art with the artist Irene Lupi (Amaci project).

Take pArt: a peer-to-peer education project on modern and contemporary art, created by young people for young people. The project engages secondary school students who, through the school-work alternation scheme, elaborate the interpretative materials for the temporary exhibitions and for the permanent collection, specifically conceived by them for their peers. This is a peer-to-peer education project that starts from what kids are interested in learning, deepening their knowledge, and communicating about the artists and works that are the subject of temporary exhibitions and the figure of Marino Marini. The museum thus becomes a laboratory for experimentation on museum communication aimed at a specific segment of the public, young people between 15 and 19 years of age, who are given the dual role of producers of content and users of the initiative.
In the first edition of Take pArt, the students of the Classic Lyceum of SS. Annunziata at Poggio Imperiale worked on the exhibition “La mano di Dios” by Rayyane Tabet (June 9 – July 31, 2016), with the coordination of the museum educators of the department.
Project realized in the context of toscanaincontemporanea2016
In the second edition, the students of the State Academy of SS. Annunziata at Poggio Imperiale worked on the museum and on the permanent collection.
