  1. AFRAID Liceo Artistico in Venice (Italy) and Ginnasio in Lipsi (Greece) since March 2006…

  2. The project wants to tackle the general issue of the current global fears. It focuses on how fears are perceived by teen-agers, on their emotions and feelings around the most relevant events shown daily by the media

  3. METHODOLOGY The original students’ feelings are taken into consideration by inserting in the school curriculum the way their perception of fear has been used in different artistic expressions and media forms which are the base for further thinking on world events.

  4. The two twinned schools send the material produced by their students in digital form to each other. This material shows visually the fears as perceived by the young people aged between 16 and 17, coming from a very different background.

  5. THE PATH FOLLOWED It is the tradition of the Liceo Artistico of Venice to express dramatic events through artistic works. In the teaching path covered up to now, we started collecting visual material going back to the dramatic events of September 11, 2001.

  6. The new teaching proposal has come from the Big Picture Network project after the terrorist attacks in London on July 7, 2005. Then a website called “We are not Afraid” (http://www.werenotafraid.com/) raised a lot of interest and seemed to be able to sublime in a virtual way people’s reaction to terrorism.

  7. Last year (2005-06) students from the Liceo wrote and illustrated some original tales in which fear is the original seed to develop the story. The reference project for this activity was the fairy tales museum Museo della fiaba

  8. SELENE AND THE MOONby Denise Agnoletto, Beggio Cistina, Campalto Francesca, Dalla Pietà Laura, Pellegrini Michela In a far away planet very similar to ours, where all the houses were of glass and the artificial light didn’t exist , the sun and the moon, always full, alternated and lightened up the days and the nights of that fantastic planet every day. There lived a little girl: Selene. …

  9. Clara’s fears… As usual on Sunday, a sweet, funny and cute girl called Clara, went to spend the day at her grandparents’ big house with her parents. As usual just after they had eaten, courious as she was, she went to explore the upper floor. One Sunday though, attracted by noises she heard coming from the attic, where she had never been, she decided to open the door and she was in front of some stairs. …

  10. VAMPIRES The dark sky was clear, a soft breeze was blowing. A silver cloud hovered on the hills around, the sharp edges lighten by the red shining of the hidden moon. He was coming home after the usual guarding, when he heard voices. …

  11. Currently the students are producing new works as to visualise their fears in order to socialise them and compare them to those produced by the students of the schools participating in the project activities. THEY’LL BE BACK…
