SUMMARY:Groundbreaking Women in Art
DESCRIPTION:Join art historian Sarah Middleton on a journey looking at significant female artists and artworks of the 20th & 21st century. For too long\, the history of art has been told through a male lens\, often censoring\, omitting or overlooking female perspectives and expressions. \nPaula Rego’s heartfelt\, raw\, political and often jarring artworks are the starting point for this lecture exploring themes of censorship\, fear\, injustice\, motherhood\, love and desire. These artworks articulate what it is to be a woman\, the context in which they lived their lives and documenting their inner selves onto canvas. \nThese artists stand in their power\, no longer seen as lesser than their famous partners – Lee Krasner\, Frida Kahlo and Georgia O’Keeffe are examples of artists stepping out from the shadows of a male dominated landscape. Their resilience\, ingenuity\, bravery and deep commitment to their craft leaves a lasting legacy on the history of art. \nAbout Sarah \nSarah Middleton is a painter\, art historian and lecturer. She studied Italian and History of Art at UCL and courses at The Courtauld and Slade School of Fine Art. Sarah works as a communications consultant and lectures all over the Cotswolds\, including giving Arts & Crafts Tours in Painswick. www.sarah-middleton.co.uk \nBook Now

SUMMARY:Expressive Drawing Inspired by Paula Rego
DESCRIPTION:Explore storytelling through drawing in this hands-on workshop led by artist Dougal Kirkland. Inspired by Paula Rego\, participants will begin from a story and use intuitive mark-making to explore the feeling and location of a narrative and how it feels to inhabit these environments. \nThe workshop will then focus on developing and combining characters\, using costumes from the Wilson collection to draw from.\nOpen to all levels\, the session encourages playful experimentation and personal expression through drawing. \nAbout Dougal \nDougal Kirkland is an artist and printmaker interested in landscape\, archeology and folklore. He studied at the Royal Drawing School where he was awarded the ACS drawing prize and where he currently teaches. Dougal is passionate about drawing and enjoys exploring ways of drawing with others.\nwww.dougalkirkland.co.uk \nBook Now
