The Museum Council of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston is seeking qualified artists, or their representatives, to submit work to a juried silent art auction being held on Saturday, June 12, 2010 at the Museum Council's 7th annual black tie fundraising event - the Summer pARTy. Proceeds of the sale of the work will be split between the MFA and the applicant. The Summer Party raises funds to benefit the Museum Council Artist in Residency Program. All submissions are due by April 5, 2010. All media are eligible and will be considered. Submissions will be reviewed by a panel of MFA curatorial staff and select Museum Council members. Works by emerging, mid-career, and established artists are encouraged, including secondary market works. Thank you for your support!
Photography as a Creative Process At Brookline Adult Education Photography is a visual art form on a par with painting, drawing, and sculpture. In this course, we will learn how to use the medium of photography for personal, creative expression. Rather than concentrating on the technical aspects, we will use the camera as a tool for artistic creativity. Each student will be guided in choosing a subject to pursue as a project for the semester. We will study a variety of visual techniques in order to create a wide range of emotional and psychological moods. Our goal is to cultivate a unique, individual signature that will distinguish each student’s work. Please bring photographs to the first class. Students are responsible for bringing in prints each week.
