Overview
Key facts
Artworks will be pitted against one another to provoke lively debate and better understand why one work or artist might be perceived as 'better' or more 'valuable' than another.
University College London (UCL)'s The Art of Looking - From Gallery to Studio (Summer School Short Course) course runs from 9.30am to 4.30pm each day. You'll also have the option of attending extra-curricular events such as talks and exhibitions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings.Programme Structure
Courses include:
- You'll visit museum collections to assess and discuss paintings.
- You'll learn about the process of looking and be asked to separate the 'depicted' subject matter from the 'artist's' subject matter to better understand the success or failure of a work.
- Practical exercises will help you identify formal values inherent in art that can discreetly ensure an artwork's quality.
- You'll explore and explain your findings through group discussions and individual presentations.
