Art History Club
The Art History Club’s first session will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 9, at 9:30 a.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 3. The class will not teach painting or drawing, but explain and discuss backgrounds of historically renowned artworks. During the meetings, club members will listen to lectures on art movements and artists while viewing projected pictures of their masterpieces.
Over the next year, the club will proceed with lectures on 18 major art movements, which are carefully chosen throughout art history, along with 100 important artists and their 400 famous artworks. The club will follow a timeline of art movements, so that people can sense the artistic evolution from the Renaissance through the modern abstract arts.
The objective of the club is to provide club members with knowledge for a better appreciation of arts, through which they will enjoy the value of masterpieces and foster beautiful emotions. It will also be a good place for friendship and association.
The club will meet on the second and the fourth Tuesday of every month at 9:30 a.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 3. Lectures will be given in Korean. Everyone who attends is required to wear mask and to pay special attention to the risks of COVID-19. No fees will be collected.
