Online Master Class DEVELOPING CONCEPTUAL SKILLS AND ADDRESSING ART STYLES by Klaus Speidel

“This masterclass invites artists to critically reexamine their work and gain more knowledge on how to execute their ideas and vision for the best outcome. The masterclass will help emerging artists experiment with new dimensions of their work and also be beneficial to mid-career artists to enhance pre-existing knowledge and experiment more to explore new paths for their work. As a first step towards consciously positioning and mediating art in a national and international context, this masterclass will focus on two issues, each of which has played an essential role for contemporary art and critically examine their role for artists: style and concepts, with a secondary focus on the role of beauty and of politics for contemporary artists.” (Text by courtesy of Klaus Speidel and KAFART, photo by courtesy of Edwins photography & the artists)

KAFART is a platform intended to support creatives in the community by giving them the perfect platform to showcase and express themselves. The exhibition also seeks to put forth underrepresented African cultures, and encourage the redefinition of history and the reinvention of a vibrant future by African creatives. KAFART aims to establish the right channels to connect African creatives to a global audience. The event is also geared towards encouraging creatives to be environmentally responsible and promote eco -friendly crafts and ideas that can help improve the current state of the environment.” (Text by courtesy of KAFART)
