The arts of different continents, countries and regions can all teach us much about their particular people’s history, traditions and beliefs. In Africa we look at Ghana and its long tradition of kente and adinkra cloths; and then to Morocco and its zellij tiles. In Asia we turn to Japan and specifically to the art of sumi-e; and to India with its world-famous Taj Mahal. Finally, to South America where we look at the traditional indigenous arts of Guatemala, and specifically at its 'worry dolls'; and to Panama with its brightly coloured textile art called molas.

There are few things as fantastic as the human face! In this art box we will look at three different ways of creating portraits: at paint and how artists like Sandra Silberzweig and Modigliani use its different mediums to capture the essence of their sitter; at sculpture and how artists such as Chris Ofili and Picasso create portraits in 3D; and at collage, and how artists like Hannah Hoch use this particular technique to depict people and their multi-faceted faces.

The types of love that we feel are almost as varied as the people who experience it, as is the art that explores the subject. From Greek mythology to Hindu motifs, cultures around the world have used a range of symbols to represent love in art. We look at a few in these art projects, creating hearts with Jim Dine; hugs, embraces and kisses with Brancusi; and dances inspired by Kerry James Marshall.

Animals, both real and imagined, have long been a favourite subject in art. Part of their beauty lies in their versatility as subjects: they are often used as symbols, but they can also be majestic creative muses in their own right. We look at creatures big and small, from wild animals with Franz Marc and Salvador Dali, to farm animals with Picasso and Tracey English, and finally at bugs and butterflies with Louise Bourgeois.

Nature has been an inspiration for some of the greatest artists of all time. In this art box, we investigate flowers, especially looking at the art of Marimekkko and O'Keeffe; trees and forests through the work of Rousseau and Carr: and finally the power of water and the sea through inspiring artists like Turner and Hokusai.
