About this course:
New NYC Crit Club course!
The Crit Assignment will consist of 6 class Zoom meetings, lead by renowned artist and educator, Molly Zuckerman-Hartung. In this course, artists will have the opportunity to present their work twice to the class. In the first round of critiques, artists will receive feedback from Molly, the Visiting Critic and peers. Based on the feedback received, Molly and the Visiting Critic will create an assignment for each artist based on the feedback. Each artist will receive an individualized assignment in the first round of critques. The assignment is intended to challenge and help reinvigorate each artist’s approach and artistic practice.
After the first 3 classes, there will be a break and no class on March 14th. The break is to provide artists enough time to respond to their assignment. Class will resume on March 21st, and the Visiting Critics will return to discuss and review the responses to assignments.
