Vincent Desiderio is not only a contemporary Painting master. His profound knowledge of Art history and techniques and his ability to share them will help you to understand the big questions that every artist wonder about. This will help you to grow and to find your own pathway and voice as an artist.
First week Module I
Form and its evolution in painting
Exercises will be centered about creating a convincing illusion of light and articulated form. The origins of forms, privilege as originating in perspective, will be discussed as well as the optics of illumination from Baroque painting to Modern approaches like Malevich, Beekman and DeKooning..
Second week Module II
Color and its evolution in painting
The second week will be about color, from its denigration before Delacroix to its triumph in modernity.Theory related to optical “truth” and symbolic “meaning” will be discussed. Students will be asked to create a work emphasizing color over form. This will be based on their first project as a complimentary task.
Exercises & Feedback
In both modules, specific exercises will be proposed to grasp the essential concepts that will be developed during the live online sessions. You will have 5 days after each module to work on your own studio and at the end you will upload your work to our website School visual Platform. There, you will interact and receive feedback from the teacher and other participants for you to learn also from your classmates work and exchange comments with them.
