  • Join to access all included materials

Art is a wonderful way to express feelings of social unrest or change. Learners will examine the works of two contemporary Japanese artists, and how they each have used art to say something big. They analyze the work of Katsuhiro Saiki and Junko Yoda, discussing how each makes statements about urban life and the environment through art. A really thoughtful lesson.
