SUBJECT
This semester
the subjects of our
tours
are going to be
different for two age groups.
With
my younger audience
we'll continue our
studies of different kinds, genres and meanings of art.
We’ll look at
portraits, genre scenes, still-lives, and landscapes of different countries
and historical periods. We’ll try to figure out what this art was about: why
people created it, why did they enjoy it, and why is it still interesting to
us? We’ll be looking at art works very carefully, but there will be also plenty
of stories to listen to.
For
my older students
I would like to offer
tours on artists and styles of various art periods. This semester we’ll
continue into the 19th and 20th century art scene. We’ll talk about personalities of some
famous artists, and what actually made them famous, about styles and movements
in art.
