Welcome to Rhythmic
Bridges
Through exploration
of this website, you will come to understand that music and art share
some common characteristics, which are expressed through different media
using parallel elements.
The artworks you will
see all fit the criteria of sharing common elements, although this may
not seem obvious at first. Come and explore by clicking on any of the
buttons to begin your artistic journey. Rhythm,
Polytonality and Improvisation
will lead you to a Looking and Listening page where you explore each artwork
in depth, read the artists' biographies and see more visuals. Rhythmic
Connections will enable you to understand the connection between
art and other forms of artistic expression, such as poetry, literature
and different musical forms. Teacher Pages
will help your teachers with ideas, while Resources is a comprehensive
collection of places where you can find more information.
