The interactive online Contemporary Art Summer School, led by performance artist and academic researcher Dr Despina Zacharopoulou since 2017, examines the rich array of positions, methods and materials that artists use, as well as exploring the questions raised by contemporary art and its production.
It is a three-week, online, practice-led short course that provides a supportive environment for self-led independent practice and introduces participants to the study of contemporary art within the academic environment of the Royal College of Art.
Taught online by RCA staff and supported by a broad range of prominent artists, academics, critics and curators, the course provides participants with the opportunity to develop their individual practice within an interdisciplinary, collaborative atmosphere.
The theme of 2025 is ‘Ana-Meta-Materialisms’ exploring how Contemporary art practices reinvents, rethinks and references itself. This theme is treated loosely and as a framework within which the course evolves. Students are allowed to respond to this theme in any way they see fit and to the extent that they feel it contributes to the development of their work.
