CONTEMPORARY VISUAL ART: UNDERSTANDING AND PRACTICE

A partir de 57.75 $ /h

KEY OBJECTIVES:

• To introduce the right toolkit to take on contemporary art of any kind, no matter how difficult, minimal and conceptually driven it may be.

• To learn to spot and call out artwork that is being difficult or challenging because it’s a load of rubbish.

• To make you feel more confident when making and looking at contemporary art!

How can we be so categorical about something as subjective as deciding if art is ‘good’ or ‘bad’? Think of it like this: If you’re not any good at carpentry, you can still identify a poorly made coffee table. Basically, what we’re going to try to do is understand how to recognise if an artwork has been responsibly made or not. In the case contemporary art that has been made responsibly, this class will suggest that your kid could not have made it, any more than they could have removed your appendix, designed a suspension bridge or landed a crashing helicopter. In the case of art that has not been made responsibly, then yes, perhaps your kid could have made it.

Acerca de mí

I am professional contemporary artist who understands that art isn't always accessible, and definitely isn't always fun. I am therefore committed to creating playful, accessible and rewarding experiences in both making and teaching art.

If you want a rigorous guide to contemporary art and have a bit of a laugh along the way, then give me a shout. It doesn't matter if you're a complete novice, an art student or even an industry professional, I can tailor my teaching to assist your creative needs.

Experiencia / Calificaciones

Since 2014 I have worked as a visual artist, writer, and curator. During this time, I have developed a creative practice working with performance, language, and technology as they pertain to privilege and identity. My extensive experience of working with
art practice in internationally acclaimed galleries, museums, biennales and art fairs has given me a thorough working knowledge of every element of contemporary art.

I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen.

I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist.

I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns.

In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on.

You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns.

Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

Are you willing to learn drawing or painting? Do you wish to improve what you already know?

I graduated from an art school where I learned all the important classical techniques of drawing, painting and sculpture. I would like to pass on the knowledge I have acquired through my studies and practice and give those who so wish the opportunity to go on a journey into the world of art and improve their language and technique.
The lessons are open to all levels.

The techniques covered range from drawing with pencil, charcoal and pastel chalk to all painting styles (watercolor, oil, acrylic, tempera). You have the opportunity to experiment on different types of paper (with different weights and colors) and canvases.

The topics change from lesson to lesson and can range from the human body to the landscape to the wildlife, depending on your preferences and desires.

Particular attention is paid to the method so that the finished work is clean, pleasant and as expressive as possible.

I teach classes in artistic drawing, painting, sculpture and creative strategies. For all levels.

I offer accompaniment so that students are able to learn to look, decipher meanings and create their own pieces of personal expression.

I work with both a historical and contemporary approach. With my methodology, students acquire the tools to create their own artistic languages. Plastic, visual and audiovisual aspects are worked on, both analog and digital.

This combination of art and English class will help children explore their creative ability and, at the same time, gain new language skills.

We can discuss any medium you want your child to explore and I will create a suitable lesson for each class. Tailored classes with interesting artistic topics will provide extra motivation for students and encourage them to remember various information from the class.

Join me and get creative using different art techniques while you boost the English language!

*** I will provide materials for this class, but if you have a specific request that requires special equipment/materials please be ready to prepare/bring them to the class!

Mis clases se adaptan a cada estudiante:

Niños: trabajamos con actividades lúdicas y creativas que estimulan la imaginación, el color y la experimentación con diferentes materiales.
Adultos: me enfoco en la técnica, la práctica consciente y la construcción de un estilo propio, respetando el ritmo y objetivos de cada persona.

Enseño diversas disciplinas artísticas: dibujo a lápiz, coloreado, pintura en varias técnicas (acuarela, acrílico, óleo), ilustración digital, así como la creación de personajes y escenarios. Gracias a esta variedad, mis alumnos pueden explorar un aprendizaje completo y elegir el camino artístico que más les inspire.

Mi metodología combina teoría y práctica con ejercicios progresivos, pensados para que mejores de forma constante mientras disfrutas del proceso creativo. Además, trabajamos en proyectos personalizados, lo que te permitirá ver resultados desde las primeras clases y sentir motivación en cada logro alcanzado.

La transformación digital exige repensar la forma en que planificamos y desarrollamos nuestras clases. En este curso revisarás metodologías activas como el flipped classroom, el aprendizaje basado en proyectos, el aprendizaje-servicio y el trabajo colaborativo, adaptadas a entornos virtuales, híbridos y presenciales.

Trabajarás con plataformas educativas y otros recursos digitales para diseñar experiencias de aprendizaje activo, crear actividades en línea significativas, elaborar rúbricas y tipos de preguntas para la evaluación formativa y aprovechar herramientas de IA generativa como apoyo docente. Al finalizar, tendrás un curso o asignatura rediseñado con enfoque en metodologías activas y uso pedagógico de las TIC.

Get ready for creativity, giggles, and a whole lot of colorful mess! I’m starting a super fun arts & crafts class just for kids where imagination runs wild and every project feels like an adventure. We’ll paint, glue, cut, sprinkle glitter, and turn everyday ideas into awesome creations kids will be excited to show off.

This class is all about exploring, trying new things, building confidence, and having FUN while we create. No pressure to be “perfect,” just a welcoming space where little artists can express themselves, make friends, and leave with big smiles (and maybe a little paint on their sleeves 🤭).

Este seminario de 6 clases propone un recorrido profundo por la vida y la obra de Andrei Tarkovski, uno de los directores más grandes e influyentes de la historia del cine.

Clase 1: Biografía y formación
Se abordará su infancia, su crianza en un entorno católico dentro de la Unión Soviética, el contexto social y cultural de la época, su formación como estudiante de cine y sus primeras películas. El objetivo es comprender de dónde nace su mirada artística y espiritual.

Clases 2 a 6: Filmografía y lenguaje cinematográfico
Se realizará un análisis completo de su obra, siguiendo un recorrido cronológico por sus películas para identificar temas, obsesiones y transformaciones a lo largo del tiempo.
Trabajaremos su estilo y lenguaje cinematográfico:
– el tiempo y el ritmo
– las atmósferas
– la memoria
– los símbolos
– lo espiritual
– la construcción de sentido a través de la imagen

También se abordarán dos ejes fundamentales:
– la censura del Estado y su relación conflictiva con las instituciones soviéticas
– la presencia del cristianismo y la espiritualidad en su cine

El seminario está orientado al análisis narrativo, estético y simbólico, no técnico, y busca desarrollar una mirada más profunda y reflexiva sobre el cine de autor.

Está dirigido tanto a personas sin conocimientos previos como a estudiantes, realizadores y amantes del cine que quieran comprender mejor la obra de Tarkovski y su importancia en la historia del cine.
