The Martín Chirino Foundation reissues the Martín Chirino Classroom, together with the ULPGC, in 2022

The Martín Chirino Art and Thought Foundation continues with the ambitious project of the Martín Chirino Training Classroom, in collaboration with the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Both institutions proposed last year to collaborate to expand the training offer, and include specific training on theory and criticism of Contemporary Art. The university extension course Resonant Forms: Artistic Interrelationships in the Contemporary Age, will be attended by professors Antonio M. González Rodríguez, David Cortés Santamarta and Daniel Lesmes González, and will run for three weeks in November 2022, during afternoon. Since the creation of the Martín Chirino Foundation, agreements have been established with the University to offer advantages to students, and the creation of the Martín Chirino Training Classroom constitutes a collaborative training project, these university extension courses being the next step in a path of growth in which the training offer will be expanded. After the first edition in 2021, with the course Art Theory, Aesthetics and Criticism, this year the training will analyze the synergies established between the different disciplines from the 19th century. The objective of the Classroom is to help understand the complexity of the contemporary artistic phenomenon from different perspectives, contextualizing it through multiple theoretical frameworks, to obtain knowledge of the different theories and methodologies of analysis of Art History. Traditionally, training in Art History starts from a linear perspective, the Foundation's proposal consists of complementing this knowledge by helping to understand the conceptual kaleidoscope that shapes contemporary times.
