BA (Hons) Fine Art year 1 students have their 3rd exhibition on the UCA Farnham campus. Part B of their induction project has just opened in the Linear Gallery for the exhibition "CITY GAMES". Following on from their study and response to the Valasquez painting Las Meninas, year 1 students where asked to consider exploring the questions raised by "the gaze' in the urban environment. Students approached the idea of watching and appearing to engage with opposing concepts of the "flaneur" and the "dandy" to either critically observe or intervene with the environment in London at the end of week 1. Still and moving image work make up this exhibition of selected student work.
UCA Farnham Fine Art students in year 1 have been launched into their programme with not 1 but 2 projects in their 1st week. The first project saw students work collaboratively to formulate responses to the Diego Valesquez painting "Las Meninas". The second project saw them work independently to explore the concept of the "Flaneur". Both projects will be exhibited, but today saw the opening of the Las Meninas project in the Linear Gallery, Farnham, their 1st exhibition.
