Create a Collage
Jean (Hans) Arp experimented with different kinds of art-making. To make this collage, he tore paper rectangles and let them fall onto a larger sheet of paper. The artist let chance decide where the pieces would fall. Some people think he might have moved some of the shapes for the final collage, other people think he didn’t. What do you think?
Try this!
Create a chance collage. Tear shapes out of a piece of paper. Let the shapes fall from a distance onto a sheet of paper. What do you notice about your arrangement? Glue or tape down your pieces or try again.

Have you ever felt so moved by music that you wanted to sing, to dance, to paint? The artist Vasily Kandinksy was inspired by music and used colors and lines to capture the different lines that he heard. Instead of depicting people and places, he made lines, shapes and colors the subject of his paintings. Use these steps from MoMA‘s book Art Making with MoMA to paint or draw your own artwork to your favorite song or playlist.
