Abstracting Reality 2
10 Week Class | Available
In this course, we will continue the experimental exploration of space and shape; colour and composition; mark making and pattern; and personal expression while digging deeper into process that we began with the first course, Abstract Painting. Students will be encouraged to follow their own trajectories and develop individual projects based on their investigations. Structured exercises will explore different strategies for beginning each project and students will work on multiple paintings at once. Projects include both observational and conceptual approaches. Each project will be supported by relevant presentations of contemporary abstract painting.
Prerequisites: Abstract Painting course or experience of abstract painting.
