The Curriculum

A path, not a pile of facts

Track 01

Ways of Seeing

Start with the eye. Composition, color, light, and line — the vocabulary that turns looking into understanding.

Track 02

Movements & Masters

From Renaissance to Impressionism and beyond. Who changed what, and why it still matters on a wall today.

Track 03

Reading a Work

Put it together. Walk up to any piece in the Gallery and know what you're looking at — and what to say about it.
