We are thrilled to announce that we have just launched our newest course, In the Studio: Postwar Abstract Painting.

MoMA’s first studio art course on Coursera offers an in-depth, hands-on look at the materials, techniques, and approaches of seven New York School artists: Willem de Kooning, Yayoi Kusama, Agnes Martin, Barnett Newman, Jackson Pollock, Ad Reinhardt, and Mark Rothko. Through studio demonstrations and gallery walkthroughs, learners will form a deeper understanding of what a studio practice means and how ideas develop from close looking, and will gain a sensitivity to the physical qualities of paint. The works of art explored in this course may also serve as points of departure for learners to make their own abstract paintings. Readings and other resources provide broader cultural, intellectual, and historical contexts about the decades after World War II, when these artists were active.

The first session begins Friday, March 24 and is open for enrollment through Wednesday, March 29. To explore all of MoMA's courses, visit coursera.org/moma.
