Paint, Potential, and Power: The London Experience for American Artists
Instructor (s): Paul Sattler, Art
Why was is it so difficult for American painters to sever their umbilical relationship to British Art, London and the European Tradition given Colonial America鈥檚 thrust toward independence? 小福利导航 will be introduced to Art History as well as Studio Practices. 小福利导航 will examine how Modernism, the rise of Paris and the World Wars influenced the British/American cultural relationship. 小福利导航 will also analyze the experiences and expressions of painters such as Benjamin West and compare them to 19th century artists including John Singer Sargent and James Whistler. 小福利导航 will learn the basics in the crafts of drawing and watercolor through repeated visits to London 鈥檚 seminal collections of painting and have the opportunity to observe instructional methods of London 鈥檚 Royal Academy of Art.
