How to write about art?
Monday 13.05.24
Welcome to a new edition of the popular writing seminar with Caroline Ugelstad Elnæs.
The seminar is held on Zoom on four Mondays in April/May of 2024. The seminar is in Norwegian.
Do you want to explore art through text? Maybe you are already working with a text and are eager to develop it in new directions? Or are you an artist looking for ideas to put your own or others' art into words? Then this writing course is for you!
About the seminar
This online seminar is for anyone who wants to gain insight into the art of cross-disciplinary writing in nearly any text genre; shorter texts and social media, Haiku poems, essays, articles and more. The course is meant for an adult audience with a desire to immerse themselves in art and express themselves through text.
