Happy Spring! It is Spring Break for us and we took a little trip to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. We saw an awesome Lego exhibit at the museum by artist Nathan Sawaya. If you are in the area, I definitely recommend visiting the museum to see this exhibit.
My favorite pieces were the ones in which he recreated famous works of art throughout art history.
There were some impressive animal sculptures as well as a fantastic dinosaur sculpture.
He also had many sculptures of the human figure.
Can’t make it to the museum? Check out a book about Nathan Sawaya— The Art of the Brick: A Life in Lego! I bet your students would love to flip through this book in your classroom. (Amazon Affiliate link used at no extra cost to you.)
Do you like Lego? I have a few other blog posts about Lego here.
