On-campus
8 Oct 2025 to 17 Jun 2025
Wednesdays 20h to 22h30.
Teachers: Alexandre Camarao and João Miguéis
The Evening Course in Drawing and Painting 2 differs from the previous year in two fundamental aspects: a more specific orientation of the experimental dimension, promoting a growing individualization of the students’ work; continuous studio practice, complementing the classroom sessions. As was the case in the previous year, evaluation of the student’s progress is at once continuous (the responsibility of teachers) and formally confirmed several times a year in the presence of the head of department. All throughout the year, participants are expected to build an individual, abundant and consistent portfolio..
