Spend a month in Paris at “les Recollets”, a famous Residency that nurtures artists and scientists from all over the world. You’ll be immersed in a totally creative environment in one of the most beautiful and art driven cities in the world . This course allows students from all disciplines to investigate the concept of The City in Motion while exploring Paris. Students are challenged to explore
various aspects of the city with time based sketches done as drawings, photos, and/or any other media that they may choose. Mobility will be a point of emphasis and students are encouraged to bring tablets , smartphones ( and good sneakers!) to be able to animate directly on the go. In addition to improving their creative skills, students meet exceptional Parisian talents and discover world class museums, monuments, and urban areas that range from antiquity to 21st century experiments. This three-week program offers 3 studio credits in animation, with an optional 3 credits in art history. Classes may be taken for undergraduate and graduate credit or audit. The program is open to undergraduate or graduate students (rising sophomores to second-year graduate students), and to lifelong learners at least 18 years of age who have completed at least one year of college study. All students must have a current, valid passport for travel.
