About this event
During guided art discussions, we study art by engaging in a conversation about it. Each participant is actively involved in looking at art, verbalizing their thoughts and feelings, sharing ideas and listening to others. The guide provides an art history perspective, steers the discussion and ensures its safety. During the events, we follow the rules of nonviolent communication, namely, we observe without judgment and talk about our own feelings.
Each discussion has the following parts, some of which may be repeated:
- Introduction of participants.
- Exploration of artworks by participants.
- Group discussion of artworks.
- Reflection on the exploration and discussion steps.
The objectives of guided art discussions are:
- Widen the participants' knowledge of art.
- Discuss art with like-minded people.
- Practice slow/mindful looking at art.
- Practice talking about art.
- Learn about different perspectives on art from other participants.
