Nursery World - Traditional Japanese art techniques

(Photograph) - Traditional Japanese art techniques bring a new twist to children's drawings in the largest exhibition of art by children in Britain for many years. The exhibition, 'Fans, Screens and Neon Lights', currently at Kew Gardens in London as one of the events for 'Japan 2001', features works by children aged three to 11 created by using traditional Japanese arts such as screen painting and fan making. The drawings, paintings, designs and sculptures are the result of three years' development by the Visual Learning Foundation, working with primary schools in London. The exhibition is on display until 30 September, after which it is likely to travel to Japan.
