Drawing Marathon – VIRTUAL: Duel/Dual: Abstraction in the Process of Drawing & Figuration in the Abstraction of Looking with Graham Nickson & Guests
Course Description
In the Drawing Marathon, students learn the importance of drawing as the basis for understanding their experience of the world. Drawing is seen here as the most direct route to the examination of our perceptions. Unorthodox tools and exercises will be introduced to broaden the student’s drawing vocabulary. The class meets every day from 9am to 6pm ET, five days a week. Evening critiques will be held occasionally throughout the two weeks and times of the critiques will be announced during respective sessions. We will utilize Zoom as our virtual “studio” and Padlet as our virtual “studio walls” during this virtual Marathon. All sessions are led in real time with the Instructor and Teaching Assistants.
