Sketching in the Galleries: Principles of Design, Directional Forces

Saturday, March 2, 2013
10:15 a.m. – 1:15 p.m.

Studio 114 and museum galleries

Instructor: Ken Wenzel

Sequence is the path or gesture in an artwork and it is created through visual directional forces on the work. After viewing the work as an ensemble students are drawn into its sequence. Line, both real and implied, creates this movement. Through the classroom presentation and by drawing from paintings in the collection, participants will study methods of using line to create directional forces and sequence.

Fees per session: $30; $22 for MIA members. To register, call (612) 870-6323 or register online »
