Courses are open to Society members only. Current fees are £90 for a five-week course; it is not possible to pay for part of a course.

PLEASE NOTE THAT BOOKING CLOSES 48 HOURS BEFORE THE START OF THE COURSE.

Places available

Whistler, Sickert and the avant-garde

  • Fri 6 January - Fri 3 February 2023
    2-4pm recordings available for one week after each session
  • Lecturer: Jo Rhymer

Both Whistler and Sickert evade easy classification, but their impact on the history of art is significant. Looking at paintings and prints, this course aims to show how American-born painter and printmaker, James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), and German-born painter and printmaker, Walter Sickert (1860-1942), each played crucial roles in the development of modern art.
