“Painting: Modernism and Mixed Media”

 

This intensive course is an immersion into materials, and a journey into alternative surfaces manipulated in ways that go way beyond traditional methods and means. The movements of “Dada” and “Arte Povera” have greatly influenced our explorations in modern art, freeing us to use burning, cutting, gluing, staining, found objects etc. as creative means in the realization of our formed intention. This has expanded our aesthetic choices exponentially while also welcoming us to consider the whole gamut of surrounding objects and textures as expressive possibilities. These lessons began with Duchamp and culminate in contemporary art experimentations, many of which fuse our entire experiential world with the act of making art. Come join us, and bring all that “stuff” you’ve been saving to make “something” with.
 

All painting mediums and formats are welcome.
