Artists have drawn and painted human figures for millennia. Figure drawing is among the hardest art forms to master, and artists need human models. This course demystifies what modeling involves and introduces some unconventional opportunities like posing as patients at medical schools, even here in Athens. Modeling types from portrait to clothed figure to costumes to nude will all be discussed, with expectations and pay for each. Attendees interested in becoming personally involved will see examples of the model types posing and will learn how to join in at their own level of comfort.

Naomi Klein’s international best-selling books include No Logo, The Shock Doctrine, This Changes Everything, Doppelgänger, and No Is Not Enough. Although I consider Klein to be one of the most important writers and thinkers of our time, not only most Americans, but also most of my OLLI students are unfamiliar with this brilliant, prophetic witness. This discussion course is for fans of Klein and those previously unaware of her work. There is no required text for the class, but I especially recommend Klein’s 2017 book No Is Not Enough. I will also be recommending various online resources.
