Art Appreciation

We are a small friendly and inclusive group

Members each take it in turns to research and present our sessions

We always have afternoon tea together in the Crypt cafe at the end of our meetings

New members are always welcome

 

We are pleased to announce our programme for 2023 -2024 :

” Latin American Art Since 1900 “

 

Latin America has developed its own colourful visual language,largely unencumbered by the influence of European art

Geometric Abstraction,the Mexican Mural Tradition and South American Surrealism are probably the most important art movements to have originated in Latin America

These three movements will form  the basis of our programme

 

We are using as our reference book ” Latin American Art Since 1900 ” by Edward Lucie – Smith

The book is published as part of the Thames and Hudson World of Art series

 

If you would like to learn to appreciate a wider range of art you are very welcome to join us

Our first session is on Friday 22nd September

We meet in the main hall of Kemptown Crypt at 1pm and our sessions last for 90 minutes

On Friday 22nd September we will be looking at the work of Mexican artist,disability,feminist and lesbian icon,Frida Kahlo

 

Please find listed below our meeting dates for 2023 – 2024
