Description
Art Appreciation L1B Women Who Changed Art
This course would focus on women artists across different periods, cultures and movements, looking at their contribution to art history and the ways they challenged expectations, developed new visual languages and shaped modern and contemporary art. It could include both well-known and less familiar artists, offering students a broad and engaging introduction to women's impact on art.
Alongside lively discussions, you'll be guided through practical exercises using watercolours, inks, and Japanese sumi-e to create small artworks inspired by real or imagined journeys. You'll reflect on your own experiences of place and memory, creating sketchbook responses or small paintings along the way. This course is about seeing the world through an artist's eyes—no passport or prior experience required.
