The Genius’ Log Project The idea of this project is to choose some characters that travel (virtually) to the countries and cities of the partners schools. We are going to tell the experiences of our trips in a blog, like a ship’s logbook. We are going to make a real figure or toy and send it to the schools of the countries we are going to visit. We are going to learn about: - The life of the genius and his/her main contribution to the culture of the country. - Tourism (The most important places in the country or the region). - Gastronomy.

The Greek Genius Domenicos Theotokopoulos

The pupils of 94 th Primary School of Athens chose Domenicos Theotokopoulos ( El Greco ). We made a mini-genius and studied about his life. We saw some of his paintings and wrote about him. We posted everything to our partner-school and we waited for the Turkish genius to arrive from Turkey.

This is our mini-genius

EL GRECO ( ) Domenikos Theotokopoulos was born in Fodele, a village in the island of Crete.His brother’s name was Manoussos.He first painted religious themes. In 1566, he left Crete and went to Venice.He stayed there for four years and worked with famous artists like Titian,Tintoretto,Veronese and Bassano. In 1570,he went to Rome and some time later he travelled to Spain. In Madrid,he decorated the Escorial Palace for Spanish King Philip II. In 1577 El Greco moved to Toledo.There, he worked on the shrine of Santo Domingo el Antigono. He met and loved Dona Jeronima de la Cuevas.They had a son,Jorge-Mnauel. EL GRECO’S ART We can estimate his works at about 500.There are some landscapes and a few portraits but most of them are of religious themes:"Assumption", "Holy Trinity", "St John the Evangelist", "St. Sebastian", "Saints Peter and Paul", "Christ embracing the Cross", "Resurrection", "Annunciation", "St. Andrew", "Pentecost", "Baptism of Christ" The most illustrious of his paintings are "Burial of the Conde de Orgaz", El Espolio", "Martyrdom of St. Maurice", "Laocoon", "Vision of Apocalypse" and "View of Toledo". I am minigenius El Greco. Pupils of the 6th Class of 94th Primary School of Athens have brought me to life. I had a great time working with them but now the time has come. I am coming to your country to find out all the interesting places there. Are you ready to show me round? Then, after three weeks, put me on the go again to meet new places and start a new adventure.
