Corey D'Augustine and MoMA curators engaged participants, like myself, in a multi-sensory hands-on experience that transformed our nascent perceptions of abstract expressionism into a developed sense of artistic appreciation for the revolutionary approaches Fantastic course, very well planned and great mix of source material through the Career in Eight Artworks sections to the videos explaining painting technique in the studio.
The teacher, Mr. Corey D'Augustine, was wonderful; however the intellectual level of the assignments was quite low, and their was basically no feedback.
I really enjoyed the demonstrations and explanations of the artists' methods by Corey D'Augustine.

abstract painting
i have wanted to do abstract painting for years but have been afraid to try it.
It has completely changed by view of abstract paintings from 'a child could have done this' to a deep appreciation of the skilled approach and the artist's very deep knowledge and understanding of their chosen medium.
I did not know a lot about Abstract Painting, but I loved the courses of MoMA and decided to do anyways.
More you have a critics presentation of the most interesting abstract paintings of the century.
Superb introduction to postwar abstract painting - a must for any person seeking to understand the historical context and techniques used to create the masterpieces from this period.
Higly rec I will admit that I am not a fan of abstract painting and that was one of the reasons I enrolled upon this course.
I loved learning not only the history of Postwar Abstract Painting, and an appreciation of the art works, but also the techniques used by many of the artists.

abstract expressionist
I know it is difficult to include all the wonderful Abstract Expressionist artists, but my feeling is that it is worth increasing the length of the course to cater for these two artists.
Alternatively, offer another Abstract Expressionist course - so have Part I (the current course) and Part II which follows on from Part I.
It gives the learner a new perspective in appreciating abstract expressionist paintngs.
I have very much enjoyed this course, and I have learned a lot about abstract expressionists.
A great course- a wonderful look at some of the great Abstract Expressionists of 1950's, and a more in depth look at how they actually painted than you'll get in most art history courses.
Many thanks to Corey D'Augustine who's straight-forward, easy-going style of teaching helped us not be afraid of trying products never used before, in my case oil paints and all the mediums that go with them, and trying methods of famous Abstract Expressionist artists.
The quiz at the end of each module help to reinforce the lessons learned for that module.In the end, I found that I could paint paintings in the style of the postwar abstract expressionists - something I never thought possible.
I have always loved the NY abstract expressionists therefore this course gave me the opportunity to learn and appreciate these painters in so much more detail.
I also learned about some of the prominent painters, techniques and materials of the Abstract Expressionist movement.

learnt a lot
Great experience, I learnt a lot about artists, techniques, composition and more.
I feel I've learnt a lot.
I've learnt a lot about Abstract Expressionism, but also about visual analysis and work appreciation.
I learnt a lot on the technical aspects of many artists I already knew about, discovered early artworks I had not seen before and also got to spend more time on artists like Ad Reinhardt I knew little about.
I have learnt a lot.

used by
I loved in particular the videos demonstrating the techniques used by each artist.
Techniques and materials used by each artist is well explained and demonstrated.
A fantastic way to discover and learn the techniques used by the artists.
My only suggestion is: maibe will be nice to go more deeply in the materials used by the artists (not the supposed one) , with link to papers, scientific investigation, conservation treatment report and other useful information about on what is the actual knowledge on the painting materials and tecnique used by the painters of newyork school.

studio exercises
Worth doing all the studio exercises to make the most of the course.
I looked forward to learning through video, reading, my own research and in the studio exercises.
The demos are great, and never give you the feeling that you cannot do such a thing (but if you do the studio exercises, you'll discover that it's not that easy...).
