About this event

Description

Mixed Media: Collage & Assemblage - All Levels
Instructor: Marat Paransky

This course is a combination of technical instruction through demos, discussion of examples from art history in books/slideshows and, of course, studio time and individual instruction for students to create collage and assemblage work. In terms of theory, the instructor will be discussing these art forms in their historical context, their subversive nature and contemporary uses in the visual arts. Some of the technical topics include:

•Supports for collage and assemblage

•Mounting images and materials

•Sealing images and object

•Glues and mediums

Students will be required to scavenge for their own raw materials and ready-mades, as well as purchase acrylic medium and PVA glue. They will also need to bring in their painting/drawing/ sculptural medium of choice to add to their projects.
