High school workshops meet at Carnegie Mellon University, Margaret Morrison Hall except Architecture 101 and Architecture 102, which meet at Carnegie Museum of Art. Students and instructors spend several sessions per week in the museum galleries.
Developing Drawing
July 7–11, 9:00–3:00 p.m.
Expand on your interest in drawing by developing and refining your skills in this weeklong workshop. Through sketches, drawing exercises, and more finished studio compositions, you will learn to draw from a live model in the studio, artwork in the museum galleries, and out of doors. Investigate proportions of the human figure and the use of value to create the illusion of three-dimensional forms. Explore the use of line in graphite, charcoal, conte crayon, and pastel to develop and hone skills in both representational and expressive drawing. (One-week workshop)
Architecture 101
July 7–18, 9:00–3:00 p.m.
Are you considering a career in architecture? Build your portfolio in this studio course that introduces college-level architectural concepts. Focus on design development, model making, and aesthetics. Explore abstract design ideas while gaining a greater understanding of architectural drawings, renderings, and models. (Two-week workshop, meets at Carnegie Museum of Art)
Art Now Carnegie International Exploration
July 14–25, 9:00–3:00 p.m.
What does it mean to be an artist today? How do emerging and established artists from Pittsburgh, the U.S., and different places around the world process their individual and communal life experiences through the creative process? Discover a range of art forms, from the traditional to the technological, used by contemporary artists in works on view in the 2008 Carnegie International. Find your own voice, as you interpret and evaluate their works from your perspective. Delve more deeply into the creative process, as you experiment with materials and modes to explore your own life experiences and world view. (Two-week workshop)
Architecture 102
July 21–Aug. 1, 9:00–3:00 p.m.
Want more architecture? This course is similar to Architecture 101, but with new projects. Less time will be spent on architectural basics–and more on design and critiques. While Architecture 101 is NOT a prerequisite, students registering for this course should have some knowledge of basic architectural drawing. (Two-week workshop, meets at Carnegie Museum of Art)
Portfolio Preparation
July 28–August 1, 9:00–3:00 p.m.
Are you considering applying to art schools and do you need pointers for putting together a portfolio that will provide a full picture of your potential? A professional artist educator will review and critique examples of your work and guide your artistic development to deepen and broaden your range and technique. Discover documentation and presentation methods to put your work in the best light. Join in student critiques and hear from a panel of artist educators to gain a range of perspectives.
