5th graders learned about contemporary artist Robert Indiana, known best for his grid-like LOVE sculpture in Philadelphia and New York City. Students could recall seeing other designs inspired by the iconic LOVE piece. Upon learning that Indiana was a writer and believed the word was a powerful work of art, students set out to create their own powerful pieces. Students were instructed to brainstorm on a four letter word that said something you want everyone in the world to have.

From the conventional love also came hope, cash, food, beds, pets, safe (for safety), kind (for kindness), life, and more. Students worked individually, and some classes worked on a larger scale to display at the Spring Art Show. Some fifth graders stated this was their favorite project of the year!

I HOPE these pieces make you feel as much LOVE as they did for me!
