MASTER CLASS
with Maurizio Pellegrin
This dynamic and intense master class is designed for artists to explore their practice and build historical and conceptual foundations through both practical and theoretical study. Under the direction of Artist and Executive Director, Maurizio Pellegrin, the program will cover a broad spectrum of cultural topics relating to arts and culture and embody an educational philosophy that aims to place the individual student’s studio practice at the center of the curriculum.
Participants will be recipients of an extensive lecture series and studio practice with one-on-one instruction. Each student’s experience will be unique, one that combines his or her theoretical study and practical application as it pertains to their project. It will be a result of the work that is completed in the studio as well as through understanding and examining the history, relationships, connections, and meaning of their specific project through lectures and research.
The Master Class will include:
Individualized studio instruction by Maurizio Pellegrin
A series of lectures covering a variety of subjects including; Architecture, Art History, Fashion, Photography, and Film
Invitational lectures by art industry experts
Visit to a US Cultural Institution
Participation in a group exhibition at The Hub, our International Gallery on the 6th floor
An exhibition catalog
Bibliography/reference book from Lecture Series
