Online art courses Drawing in Contemporary Art

The online art courses of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao offer accessible yet rigorous training in key concepts and topics in the history of modern and contemporary art, addressed from current perspectives. Drawing on the contributions from experts in specific fields, these courses are inspired by the Museum’s Collection and its dynamic exhibition program.
Drawing was the first form of artistic representation used by man to communicate or convey ideas. Its development has followed the evolution of history and art since its emergence as such in the sixteenth century.
Moreover, a drawing, either on paper or in the mind, is often the starting point of the creative process for many artists – a sort of “skeleton” of their work. And many drawings have come to be considered as works of art in their own right, given their complexity, their uniqueness, or the skill with which they were drafted. Many artists in the old days were celebrated for their dexterity in the mastery of this technique, which continues to be a fundamental discipline in contemporary art.
Objectives 
This online course is aimed at:
<ul>
<li>Offering an overview of the history of drawing, illustrating it with pieces from the old masters, particularly Francisco de Goya, as a predecessor of contemporary drawing.</li>
<li>Reviewing non-Western drawing practices with an influence on contemporary drawing.</li>
<li>Highlighting the importance of drawing, both as a technique and as an independent discipline.</li>
<li>Illustrating all of the above with a selection of works from the Museum Collection that show the key role played by drawing in artists’ creative processes and accomplished works of art.</li>
</ul>
Conducted by: 
José Manuel Matilla, art historian, Chief Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Prado Museum.

Children and Families

In the context of the exhibition Uramado AR, which is being held in Bilbao, the Institut Français Bilbao and the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao have organized a series of children’s workshops on digital art. Uramado AR, created by Julie Stephen Cheng, offers an experience in augmented reality, telling the story of Tanukis, spirits of the forest waking up in the city. Using a tablet or a smartphone and the free app, participants will go on a treasure hunt route across the city to find these fascinating creatures. As they are discovered one by one, they come to life, ask questions, and respond to the user’s replies. The conversations with them can shed light on the differences between us and the multiplicity of worldviews available, in an experience that is both playful and poetic.
In this Museum workshop, children will have to find the Tanukis and learn about them with the help of drawing. They will make up stories and draw scenes based on the characters from Japanese mythology brought to life by augmented reality. At the end of the route, they will discover that they themselves are spirits too, and they will make their own colorful masks! The masks will also come to life thanks to augmented reality. Participants can then take their masks home to go on playing.
Two groups: 
10:30 am–12:00 noon: 15 children 
12:30 pm–2:00 pm: 15 children

Courses Pop Art

The online art courses of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao offer accessible yet rigorous training in key concepts and topics in the history of modern and contemporary art, addressed from current perspectives. Drawing on the participation from experts in specific fields, these courses are inspired by the Museum Collection and its dynamic exhibition program.
Pop art was an art movement characterized by a return to representation, drawing inspiration from sources in popular and commercial culture—hence the name of the movement. Emerging in Britain in the 1950s, Pop art flourished in America in the 1960s, where a sudden boom in the economy triggered the growth of consumerism. Some of the artists in the Pop art movement reacted by incorporating images from mass culture and using techniques that emulated (or parodied) industrial production. Pop art drew on billboards, commercial ads, films, television, pulp magazines, comic strips, or even shop windows.
This course offers a broad overview of the relevance of Pop art and its various manifestations in the international art scene, its main representatives, and its influence on contemporary art practices.
Objectives
This online course is aimed at:
<ul>
<li>Analyzing the keys to the most salient characteristics of Pop art, as well as the social, political, economic, and cultural background that led to its emergence and development internationally.</li>
<li>Exploring the work of the leading Pop artists, including several women, and their most iconic creations.</li>
<li>Showing the influence of Pop art on other forms of culture beyond the visual arts, e.g. music or fashion.</li>
<li>Understanding the legacy of Pop art and its influence on contemporary art from a 21st-century perspective.</li>
</ul>
