VISIBLE STUDIO | American Landscapes: Munson Museum Master Copies
With Yulia Levkovich | Intermediate | 18+
This class celebrates intensive technical study, problem solving, and dialogue with artists and artworks of the past. It builds on a long-standing tradition of working from close observation of a masterpiece in a museum’s permanent collection. Through this tradition of close observation of a masterpiece, artists receive personalized instruction in oils and the unique opportunity to utilize artworks from the Munson Museum of Art collection. Some previous knowledge of oils is required and beneficial for the class. This course celebrates the summer exhibition, American Landscapes From The New York Historical Society, and includes admission to explore the show.
The first two classes take place in the School of Art Studio Building before moving to the museum galleries. All paintings are 19th century masterworks from the Munson collection. A materials list is provided.
