Abstract Expressionism
A study of the plastic self in the moment.
Description
This course is on Abstract Expressionist Art. Abstract Expressionism is an art not about flowers or landscapes, but of the human being that is painting the work. Each of these works is the manifestation of a human being in paint. In this course I encourage you to try your hand at working in each of these different styles. It is being taught to you by a practicing Abstract Expressionist artist. I teach lecture courses and studios as I wish they would have been taught to me. Much of the graphic material in my lectures is taken or generated first hand directly by me on site. I teach to learn. I teach subjects as I wish they were taught to me. The Mission Statement. Education is a tool for the improvement of successive generations. I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius
This course is designed under the premise that humans should be taught in a way that is modeled after the educational patterns of evolution.
The design, development and application of educational systems based on the educational principles of evolution generates a philosophy and methodology of education in synchrony with the evolutionary education system that is firmly and deeply rooted in each of us.
Education for evolution is an educational system designed to help propel humans forward in the natural course of evolution. The purpose of education for evolution is to enhance and strengthen the natural evolutionary process of humans through the mechanism of education.
