Art Intensives (ARTT-NE)

This two-week summer program introduces high school students to the creative process of staging a fashion exhibition. Students will be asked to do research in fashion history, engage in close examination of objects, design an exhibition space, and narrate an original story of fashion for a public audience. In-studio workshops will be complemented by visits from guest speakers–historians, curators, and exhibition designers–and class visits to museums across the New York City region.

Summer Studio Residency provides a genuinely immersive studio experience for the recent BFA graduate who is dedicated to studio time, theoretical concerns, and establishing a professional practice for a career in art. Through the semi-private studio atmosphere, residents will be expected to maintain a rigorous practice, utilizing this time to further develop critical ideas through their studio. Participants should anticipate meeting weekly with visiting artists and scholars to discuss their ideas and work.
