Tour: Exploring the Collection Through Composition

In this tour, visitors have the opportunity to creatively engage through photography with Museum Educator Bristol.

The tour starts with a crash course on composition and a discussion on what makes a quality, captivating composition. We will examine each work in the Pulitzer’s permanent works: Scott Burton’s Rock Settee, Ellsworth Kelly’s Blue Black, and Richard Serra’s Joe. Visitors will be able to spend time capturing the beauty of these works, as well as learning how the physical space and lighting of the Pulitzer can be used as compositional elements.

This is meant to be a fun, relaxed, and introductory tour for all ages. We will primarily use smartphones, but other cameras are welcome! If you would prefer to explore composition through sketching, supplies will be provided.
