This three-day course provides an intensive study of contemporary art, including painting, sculpture, installation and mixed media.

Arranged chronologically, the first day of the course introduces art from 1960 to 1980. The second day covers works produced between 1980 and 2000, whilst the third focuses on art in the new millennium. As London is one of the world’s most vibrant centres of contemporary art, the city has become a base for many noted artists.

The course includes visits to the enterprising galleries and artists’ spaces that have burgeoned across the capital over the past decade.

Fee: £650 (£600 if booked by 8 March 2010)
