<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Times New Roman&#34;,serif"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">You will study the works of Pablo Picasso, Wassily Kandinsky, Mark Rothko, and Salvador Dalí, analysing their approaches to form, colour, and composition. The course will examine how Cubism deconstructed perspective, how Abstraction moved beyond representation, and how Surrealism embraced the subconscious and dreamlike imagery. Through lectures and discussions, participants will gain insights into the cultural and historical contexts that influenced these movements, as well as their lasting impact on contemporary art.</span></span></span></p>
