Exploring The Visual Arts




« back to classes page
ClassGraphic In this study group, participants are encouraged to share their experiences with painting, sculpture, photography, architecture, art movements, or creative techniques. Active discussion is a core part of every presentation—everyone’s knowledge and opinions are welcome. Volunteer presenters choose a subject for our examination, prepare talking points, and present a mix of text, audio, images, or video. Coordinators assist with content preparation if needed. The coordinators select the first week’s topics; after that, study group members suggest topics based on their particular interests. The format includes one or two local field trips. There are no prerequisites or required readings except for materials presenters may suggest. Possible topics include Caillebotte, Ashcan artists, Calatrava architecture, Velázquez, Bernini’s sculptures, Rembrandt, and conceptual art. Presenters often say they learned more than expected and that meeting the research challenge was rewarding. The main goal of our study group is to enjoy and discuss art in a fun, inclusive setting.
