EarthDiverse: Art Appreciation Café, Thursdays in November
Love Art? EarthDiverse is pleased to announce its first ever Art Appreciation Café on Thursday evenings in November.
Everyone is a potential artist, and everyone can appreciate and interpret art. At our Art Appreciation Café we meet for informal discussion about works of art, artists and artistic developments. Join us over a cuppa to view and talk about exemplary pieces of world art. During each of our 4 sessions we will discuss 4 very different works of art from diverse eras and geographical places of origin.
After a brief introduction by an expert, we invite everyone to share their personal observations and insights.
At our first session we discuss cave art from Lascaux, a painting from the Italian Renaissance, German Romanticism and a contemporary New Zealand sculpture.
The workshop's conveners Peter Dornauf and Norman Franke look forward to seeing you for four evenings of spirited discussion about the arts in November.
Coffee, tea & biscuits will be available during each weekly session.
Thursdays beginning 7 November, 7:00-8:30pm, in Hamilton, New Zealand.
