Seniors Social: Denyse Thomasos, Wassily Kandinsky and Abstract Art

Make new art connections and spark conversations! Join us for our free virtual Seniors Social program, a live biweekly series for older adults that combines conversations with art and artmaking. The AGO believes providing opportunities to experience art and artmaking increases well-being.

In this session, we'll explore the musicality of certain paintings and the exciting world of abstraction. We'll take a closer look at a piece by Wassily Kandinsky (who some consider to be the first abstract painter), as well as truly extraordinary and much more recent work by artist Denyse Thomasos

For the artmaking portion of our session, you will need: a piece of string, black India ink, watercolour paints and brushes, and watercolour paper.

 

Live sessions will contain automated closed captions.

Closed captioning is available in this recording.

If you require further assistance, please email us at [email protected]

For requests for Verbal Description, American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation and/or live captioning for online and onsite programming, please provide three weeks notice in advance of the event date. The AGO will make every effort to provide accommodation for requests made with less than three weeks notice. Please note that automated captioning is available for all online programs. For onsite visits, the AGO offers these supports for an accessible visit. Please contact us to make a request for these or other accessibility accommodations. Learn more about accessibility at the AGO.
