Abstract Photography - Nigel Wilson

Event info

Only one place left - next date 29th July.

This on-line course will be looking at experimental and conceptual image makers and how you can apply some of their techniques to your own work.

There is a rich creative tradition of abstraction in photography and you will have the opportunity to examine and discuss in detail the work of practitioners of this fascinating genre, these include:

  • Wolfgang Tillmans
  • Aaron Siskind
  • Eric Meola
  • Man Ray
  • Thomas Ruff

Influenced by these great artists, you will then experiment with abstraction and create your own images which will then be reviewed in the class.

This workshop will be for 8 - 10 people only and will be the same as a face to face workshop, just from the comfort of your own home.  Don’t worry if you’re not familiar with working on-line the tutor will be there to guide you through each step.  Registration is at 10am and the course will commence at 10.30am - this will give the tutor time to help those who might have issues.
