DESCRIPTION
This painting course will center the use of the human figure as a primary subject of expression in Central European painting and technical studio instruction for this expression. After an introductory lecture, the class will move to the studio facilities to work directly from live models. Here students will be taught the basics of drawing from the figure while simultaneously applying the experiences and knowledge gained from the lectures and the museums in Prague.
Students will work primarily from the model, but should be inspired stylistically by the specific Expressionist characteristics of Central European art. The premise is that the Central Europe of Prague and Vienna developed according to its unique history and artistic heritage, which differed from the cultures of other European capitals and regions and that this can be a valuable source of inspiration for the contemporary artist.
There are no prerequisites as we can accommodate beginners as well as more advance students in this multilevel course.
