Exhibition to showcase works by Art Specialist Course 2018-19 graduates (with photos)
*************************************************************************************
The opening ceremony was held today. Officiating guests included the Acting Deputy Director of Leisure and Cultural Services (Culture), Mr Chan Shing-wai; the Art Specialist Course (Painting) Course Coordinator, Ms Wong Wai-yin; and the Art Specialist Course (Printmaking) Course Coordinator, Ms Jane Liu.
The Art Specialist Course 2018-19 covers the disciplines of painting and printmaking, which are co-ordinated by experienced artists Wong and Liu respectively. Established local artists are also invited to teach specific topics and take the students out of the classroom to visit exhibitions and artists' studios, as well as to conduct outdoor studies. The painting course takes a progressive approach which enables students to explore the possibilities of painting. The printmaking course introduces traditional and contemporary printmaking through theoretical and practical training, and helps students to explore their creative development and build up their own styles.
The new courses for 2019-20 are now open for application. They include Art Specialist Courses in ink painting, ceramics and sculpture, as well as Advanced Specialist Courses in painting and printmaking. The deadline for application is February 24.
