<p>During guided art discussions, we study art by engaging in a conversation about it. Each discussion focuses on a specific art topic, genre or period and consists of the following parts: introduction of participants, exploration of artworks and slow looking, group discussion of artworks chosen by participants and the guide, reflection on the process and feedback round. During the discussion, every participant is actively involved in looking at art, thinking about art, verbalizing their thoughts, sharing these thoughts and listening to others. The guide steers the discussion by focusing the participants&#x27; attention on specific aspects of artworks (e.g., content, color, composition, etc.) and on the participants&#x27; own perception of these artworks. The guide also takes care of the safety of the discussion by ensuring that the following rules are observed: we do not make judgments and talk about ourselves only.</p><p>The objectives of guided art discussions are:</p><ul><li>Widen the participants&#x27; knowledge of art.</li><li>Discuss art with like-minded people.</li><li>Practice slow/mindful looking at art.</li><li>Practice talking about art.</li><li>Learn about different perspectives on art from other participants.</li></ul><h3>🎟 Tickets and Cancellation Policy</h3><p>The event price is 20€ per person + 1.08€ eventbrite fee.
