About This Course

Cubism and the Emergence of Abstraction

This is a course on the work of the Spanish painter Pablo Picasso. Pablo Picasso is one of the most influential painters of modern art. The innovations that he, along with George Braque, developed had a profound influence on modern art. In addition to the work of Picasso we study and enjoy the work of Cezanne, George Braque and Juan Gris. I teach lecture courses and studios as I wish they would have been taught to me. Much of the graphic material in my lectures is taken or generated first hand directly by me on site. I teach to learn. I teach subjects as I wish they were taught to me. The Mission Statement. Education is a tool for the improvement of successive generations. I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius

This course is designed under the premise that humans should be taught in a way that is modeled after the educational patterns of evolution.

The design, development and application of educational systems based on the educational principles of evolution generates a philosophy and methodology of education in synchrony with the evolutionary education system that is firmly and deeply rooted in each of us.

Education for evolution is an educational system designed to help propel humans forward in the natural course of evolution. The purpose of education for evolution is to enhance and strengthen the natural evolutionary process of humans through the mechanism of education. The means to achieve this objective is the design of a curricula based on the same educational techniques and strategies used by natural evolution, enhanced and guided by the application of conscious educational decisions.

I found the background music very distracting to what he was saying. Even on a big sale I did not really feel like it was worth the money.

Inicialmente achei as falas um pouco lentas... que o curso se tornaria maçante. Engano meu! É um excelente curso, diria, fundamental para quem quer entender a arte moderna! O professor demonstra profundo conhecimento sobre o Modernismo e disseca através dos detalhes, como apreciar, ou mesmo desenvolver este tipo de arte. Até o momento, foi o melhor curso que estou fazendo pela Udemy!
