The Indifferent Landscape
Brad Kahlhamer
Tuition $1,415
Code D0918-25
This mixed media workshop focuses on landscape with an emphasis on incorporating the figure into the landscape narrative using ink, paint, drawing materials, and sketchbooks. The class heads outdoors for at least two of the workshop days, then returns to the classroom to continue to work and discuss the figure, composition, and landscape in depth, striving to create an artistic discourse that is clear, authentic, and earnest. Students engage as a group and in one-on-one conversations and are encouraged to explore the historical and cultural context from which their work emerges. Emphasis is on creating with the confidence to make the work that compels students to take possession of their ideas and follow their obsessions.
