Art Tools for Everyday Use

Experience the transformative potential of art.

This interactive course introduces art strategies as tools for grounding, connecting, disconnecting, reflecting, and opening one’s own creative potentials. We will take a hands-on approach as we work through select art methods used to appreciate the small things in the everyday, recognize our sublime placement, and be given the opportunity to unlock the subconscious, if desired. Allowing for a free-flowing process rather than following steps to produce a specific outcome, reflexively experiencing a process for the sake of that process rather than a means to an end, unlocks a world of possibilities.

Art and Culture in Spain

This course moves from the Spanish masters to the local art scene. A really exciting component is that this course contains exclusive interviews (in English or with translation provided) with Spanish artists that were recorded specifically for this course on scene in Spain: coffee chats, wine sips, perhaps a tapa para picar, city walks filled with diverse architecture and the stories that accompany them as told by locals, museum visits, studio visits, a house visit in the case of Dalí, wild stories about Goya, and much more. Students will get a fresh (and sometimes hidden) perspective on well-known artists, explore the architectural trends through storytelling, as well as be introduced to the contemporary art scene, including a thriving culture of art, music, and dance.
