Painting and Printmaking class, Kerstin Drechsel

Engage with image making. Painting, drawing, printing techniques and their possible and impossible contexts. Narrative and figuration can be starting points. What do we have in the bag? What do we want to investigate or narrate? Painting as excavation. Making hidden spaces visible. Scratching the surface, rearranging. Between omission and formulation. Body images. Questioning norms, disciplinary, interdisciplinary. Everyday culture, research. Old masters. Current. Art. Non-art. It's about the relationship between motif, narration and media choices. What? How? Why? What can a medium do? Crossing boundaries. Feeling one's way.

Class meetings, individual and small group discussions.
if possible: exhibition visits, excursions
