“你是一个好的宇航员吗？”
这是英国当代艺术家、设计师、作家
戴维.布兰斯顿在上周五的
哈罗珠海大师班上
向哈罗学子提出的问题
作为哈罗珠海大师班第二期的客座讲师
正在佛山举办艺术展的戴维先生
受哈罗珠海邀请，专程来到珠海
为哈罗的孩子们带来了一堂别出心裁的
当代艺术课

他引用美国先锋发明家、建筑师、门萨第二任主席
巴克敏斯特·富勒的“宇航员”概念作为开场白
带领孩子们开展了一场极具意义的
当代艺术旅程的探索
作为一名跨学科的艺术家和设计师，戴维老师擅长用环保材料和回收材料制作艺术品，曾在全球举办过超过100场设计讲座及设计工作坊，还撰写了多本以“创意生成”“材料运用”为题的设计书。
为了打开哈罗学子们的艺术思维，他引用了巴克敏斯特·富勒在《地球飞船操作手册》中的“宇航员”概念，巧妙的引出了艺术可持续性的话题。
富勒在书中提到“如果地球是一艘飞船，那么每一个人都是一个宇航员。这艘飞船无法在宇宙中停靠获取补给，因此作为一名负责人的宇航员，每一个人都需要利用好身边的物品”。
戴维老师紧接着分享了他的一系列艺术作品，他利用意想不到的废弃材料，打造出了众多极富美感和现代艺术内涵的作品，这些作品在英国、美国、中国很多地方展出。
戴维老师告诉哈罗学子们，艺术创作的本质就是去发现生活中的美好，而利用废弃材料，我们都能够成为一位负责任的“宇航员”。
哈罗学子们对戴维的艺术工作充满了好奇，纷纷举手用英文提问。“你为什么喜欢艺术？”“我应该怎么学习艺术？”五年级的小朋友Vegas 甚至问出了 “艺术家的盈利模式是什么？”戴维老师颇有耐心地一一给孩子们做了解答。
哈罗珠海的学子们非常珍惜与大师交流的机会，而自信勇敢的哈罗学子给戴维留下了深刻印象，他感叹道：“哈罗的学生和我见过其他中国学校的孩子真的不一样！”
戴维善于启发学生，曾带领年轻设计师们在意大利、英国、美国和中国举办设计装置作品展。在演讲结束后，戴维就与哈罗学子进行艺术共创，让学生亲身用简易素材感受现代艺术的创作过程。
一个呼啦圈，一个用废旧木板改装的滑板，一个装颜料的废旧塑料瓶……这些不起眼的东西在戴维的手下变成一组艺术装置。在他的指导下，学生在画纸上开始了对艺术的探索。
得到启发后，哈罗学子更发挥自己的创意，使用课室里的乒乓球和纸筒加入了创作。戴维告诉孩子们，当代艺术的美学存在在艺术创作的过程之中，在很多创作的瞬间，你们能够发现美，而使用多媒体记录这些创作美感，可以让作品更加多元。
戴维鼓励喜欢艺术的同学们：“艺术品的制作一般用时不长，但是完善往往需要一段很长的时间，有时候会废寝忘食，但是自己乐在其中。你们应该找到自己一生热爱的事情，善于发现周围的事物，充分发挥自己的想象力，享受创作的过程，为他人带来更多美好。”

"Are you a good astronaut?"
This is the first question that British contemporary artist, designer and writer Dave Bramston proposed to our students at the AISL Harrow Zhuhai Master Class last Friday.
As the guest lecturer for the second Master Class, Mr Bramston, who is currently holding an art exhibition in Shunde, was invited by Harrow to come to Hengqin to give a unique contemporary art class to the pupils of Harrow Zhuhai.
Contemporary Artist, Designer, and Author
Art Lecturer at the University of Lincoln, UK
Director of the Bramston Studio Limited, UK
By quoting the concept of 'astronaut' by Buckminster Fuller, a pioneering American inventor, architect and second President of Mensa Club, Mr. Bramston took our Harrovians on a highly meaningful journey of discovery into the modern arts.
↑Buckminster Fuller showed the architectural model
As a multidisciplinary artist and designer, Mr. Bramston specializes in making artworks from eco-friendly and recycled materials and has given over 100 design lectures and workshops worldwide. He has also authored several design books on the subject of "idea generation" and "material use".
In order to open the minds of Harrow students to creative arts, he invoked Buckminster Fuller's concept of 'astronauts' from his famous book Operating Manual For Spaceship Earth，which cleverly led to the topic of artistic sustainability.
In his book Fuller says "If the Earth were a spaceship, then every man would be an astronaut. The ship cannot dock in space for supplies, so as a responsible astronaut, each person needs to make the best use of what is given".
Mr Bramston went on to share a series of his artworks, using unexpected waste materials to create a number of aesthetically pleasing contemporary artworks, which have been exhibited in many places in the UK, USA and China. Mr Bramston told our Harrovians that the essence of creating art is to discover the beauty in life and that by using discarded materials we can all become responsible 'astronauts'.

Our Harrovians were curious about Mr Bramston’s art work as it was very different from what they had learnt in the art class. Students raised their hands to ask questions in English. "Why do you like contemporary art?" , "How should I learn about art?" , and Vegas, a fifth grader even asked "What is the profit model for an artist?" The artist patiently answered all of our children's questions.
Our Harrow Zhuhai students cherished the opportunity to interact with the master and the artist was impressed by the confident and brave Harrow students, exclaiming "Harrow students are really different from other Chinese school children I have seen!"
Co-creation with the Artist
Mr. Bramston has a knack for inspiring students and has led exhibitions of design installations by young designers in Italy, the UK, the USA and China. After his lecture, the artist engaged in an art co-creation session with Harrow students, giving them a hands-on experience of the process of creating modern art using simple materials.
A hula hoop, a skateboard converted from a scrap of wood, a few used plastic bottles filled with paint ...... These humble objects were transformed into a set of art installations under the master’s hands. Under his guidance, students began to explore art on drawing paper.
Inspired, our Harrow students kicked off their own creativity, using ping pong balls and paper cones from the classroom to create their artworks. Mr. Bramston told the children that the aesthetics of contemporary art exist in the process of creating art, and that there are many creative moments where you can find beauty, and that using multimedia to record these creative moments can make the work more diverse.
Mr. Bramston also encouraged our Harrovians who enjoy art: "Artwork usually doesn't take long to make, but it often takes a long time to perfect and sometimes you can forget about the time, but you will enjoy it. You should find what you love to do in life, be good at finding things around you, use your imagination to the fullest, enjoy the process of creating and bring more beauty to others."
The Master Class is one of the many new initiatives starting from this academic year.
In the last AISL Harrow Zhuhai Master Class,
the school has invited Badminton World Champion Ms. Ma Jin
to give a unique PE lesson to our Harrovians.
The Programme Lead of the Master Class Series
Head of Marketing and Admissions at Harrow Zhuhai
Mr. Constantine Yu
"The Master Class is a reflection of Harrow‘s holistic education philosophy on our Zhuhai campus. By bringing together world-class learning opportunities, we can give our Zhuhai Harrovians more and better learning experiences. Not only will children be able to learn from the masters through these open classes, they will also be able to expand their horizons and enlighten their love for learning. In the future, we will bring in more market and educational resources to provide learning and development opportunities for our children at Harrow."
