ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIORS OF PARIS:
A DRAWING INVESTIGATION
July 20 - July 31
This course offers an immersion into the built environment of Paris—its monuments, museums, urban fabric, rooms, gardens, early modern masterpieces, art, culture, and innovations. The city will be the classroom and drawing will be the primary tool for discovery. Drawing methods practiced on-site and include orthographic correspondence, perspective drawing, composite/layered drawing, sketchbook work, and experimental mixed media work that will capture the experience of being in Paris. Conversations will incorporate contemporary and historical views, as sites shift from medieval to modern, and drawings move from documentation to analysis and invention. Note: This course is available for graduate credit. Students enrolling at the graduate level should indicate this status on the Registration Form. It is recommended that students without any previous drawing experience take the two-week course: Drawing in Paris, College/Adult level, in addition to this course to build the necessary skills.
