From Image Making to Curating an Exhibition will be divided in two parts: students will first create images in the streets of Paris during shooting sessions. The work produced will then be examined by students who will come up with a group scenography, leading to an exhibition in ESPACE F15 Gallery. This class is an opportunity to go through the whole creative process: from concept to showcasing students’ art as a cohesive body of work.
