Each semester, Object Workshops are offered for graduate students to approach a variety of art objects from technical, material, and connoisseurial perspectives. The series takes students to pieces at the Clark and affiliated institutions for in-depth analysis outside the classroom.
Bi-weekly Contemporary Curatorial Workshops, currently led by Lisa Dorin, Deputy Director for Curatorial Engagement at WCMA, and Robert Wiesenberger, Curator of Contemporary Projects at The Clark, are available for students studying contemporary art and curatorial practice. The course hosts local and visiting curators and artists for presentations on their projects and explore key topics in modern and contemporary art and curatorial practice.
