History Courses 

This three-morning series explores how Western art changed from realistic portraits and landscapes to abstract styles between the late 1700s and the mid-1900s. Starting with the strict rules of Neoclassicism, the emotional drama of Romanticism and Realism’s focus on everyday life. Then discover how artists moved away from solid shapes, starting with Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, followed by the bold, “wild” colours of Fauvism. Then examine the fractured views of Cubism and the dream-like world of Surrealism. We’ll also look at modern design schools like the Bauhaus and finish with Picasso’s famous anti-war painting, Guernica.

Csaba Dolak, studied Art History in Hungary before moving to the U.K. and for over a decade he has taught art and art history locally.
