Exploring Madrid Through the Arts in Madrid, Spain
Video and Photos
About
As an “artist-in-residence” in this experiential program, you’ll learn about Madrid by exploring the Spanish greats and ornate buildings of world renown. But you’ll also find a blooming contemporary art scene of photography, graffiti, architecture and studio art. It’s hard to imagine a more lively place to study art, history and the connection between the two.
Morning classes prep you for exciting afternoon tours and excursions to working studios. You’ll meet local artists and photographers, create art projects with local Spanish-speaking peers, and take a survival Spanish course to help you navigate the city.
As a final project presentation, you’ll focus on a Spanish painter, architect, studio artist or photographer, or create a short documentary video about the significance of Madrid as an art destination. You’ll return home with a certificate in Art & History, an amazing portfolio, and inspiration to make your mark in the year ahead.
