A Subjective Journey into the Art
Tuesdays 10.15 – 12.00
Enthusiasm is contagious! Those who are passionate
about what they like impact everyone around them.
Excitement, intensity and ardour are conditions
that light up our lives. The Spring 2017 season will
benefit from the energy of those who are in close,
professional contact with art. The lecturers will
talk about their choices with unbridled enthusiasm.
Through detailed examinations, essential features
and meanings will be unravelled.

“I like art!” Do you? Why do you like it? When did you
realize you were an art lover? Do you have a favourite
artist, artwork, or period in art history? What is the
source of your inspiration? So many people, so many
opinions. Our lecturers also have their own responses.
Would you like to hear them? If so, you are welcome
to our six-week lecture series.
