View Weaving Paper VesselsJoin artist Richard Gunning, as he explores the Art of the Renaissance and the history of Venice and its art in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
The six-week course will be presented in two parts. Part one explores the art of the Renaissance, the cultural phenomena that begins initially in Florence and evolves over two centuries, producing some of the most beautiful and important works in Western Art. Part two takes us on a journey through the history of Venice from its unpromising beginnings in a muddy lagoon to its emergence as a world power, all the while looking at how this incredible story is reflected in its art.
