THIS COURSE IS SOLD OUT
ART & THE WORLD: JAPAN – FOUR WEEK COURSE
🇯🇵 For centuries, Japan has been a powerhouse of cultural influence. Deeply rooted in culture, ceremony and meticulously-honed artisan skills, and with a history of tradition intersecting with radicalism and reinvention, Japanese culture is as diverse as it is inimitable, having long inspiring artists, designers, trade and society well beyond the country’s own borders.
Over four evening sessions facilitated by a specialist NGV educator, and with guest experts including NGV curators, participants will learn about Japan’s social, political and cultural history through a close study of the NGV Collection and the Kimono exhibition.
Enrolment includes private, after-hours access to the Kimono exhibition and course materials.

🇯🇵 WHAT IS INVOLVED
This course introduces the art and design of Japan and its far-reaching cultural and social influence through a study of key artworks, movements and styles. Participants will learn how the art and design of Japan has transformed over time explore and its influence and impact on international cultural production, trends and histories.
Classes are held in the NGV’s learning spaces and galleries and take place after-hours to provide an exclusive and intimate learning experience, including private access to the Kimono exhibition.
No prior knowledge or experience is required.
A prescribed reading and resources list will be provided to course participants as part of the course materials, providing links to a curated selection of books, articles and videos to extend your learning.
Includes tea, cofee and light refreshments on arrival in the NGV Members Lounge.

🇯🇵 SESSION TIMES
The course will take place weekly on Monday evenings, 6pm–8pm from 25 August – 15 September.
