CoCA Visit

On Thursday room 11 went to CoCA art gallery ( centre of contemporary arts ) and while we where there we found out a lot of interesting facts about German children's picture books ( an exhibit at CoCA)   . For e.g the story behind the art, the materials they used and the techniques. We also had a storyteller in to read us a picture book translated into English. We thought of what the pictures meant and how they can tell a simple story with no words. 
After that we drew pictures of our own bedrooms at home and what they would look like with only a little bit of light coming through your door or window(s). We would definitely like to go there for one of their next exhibits.
