THE COURSE offers art history lectures, guided museum visits and London walks.
Symbolic, illuminating, awe inspiring – the mastery of light has been a vital tool of the western artist. This course, five lectures and gallery visits, looks at such forms as stained glass, the natural light of Constable, the brooding emotion of Rubens and the reflections of Impressionism in an attempt to understand the fascination of light and its immense possibilities for the artist.
CAPTURING THE SPARK
In this session at the National Gallery, we will see how different artistic media present alternative possibilities for conveying the presence and the subtleties of light. In particular, the movement of painters from tempera to oil paint from the C15th creates the opportunity of
rich glazes and a new radiance to give new dimension to the experience and narrative of the world.
