Gray M.C.A in partnership with The Courtauld Institute of Art London is proud to present a series of Fashion Illustration Masterclasses – each hosted by a leading illustrator. In each session you will hear how a contemporary artist approaches his or her work, and what inspires and influences their practice. Participants will also gain insight and feedback on the work they produce over the course of the evening, as they are invited to draw fashion worn by live models. This is a unique opportunity to be inspired to learn about current fashion illustration practice, while producing your own drawing.
We are pleased to announce that our next Masterclass will be hosted by Tina Berning.
Tina is a Berlin based artist and illustrator. Her Illustrations have been been distinguished many times and published in numerous anthologies. Her client list contains brands (Mercedes Benz, Tiffany & Co, Delpozo, Carven, Prada) as well as magazines and newspapers such as Die Zeit, New York Times, New Yorker, Harpers Bazaar, Playboy or Vogue.
At the same time Tina Berning continuously develops her fine artistic position. Her motto „A drawing a day keeps the doctor away“ comes to live in her online diary that can be followed on her instagam account @tina_berning. Her solo art projects are continously published and exhibited in galleries and art fairs worldwide including Schönfeld Gallery, Brussels, Alison Milne Gallery, Toronto, Galerie Andreas Binder, Munich. Her long time cooperation with fashion photographer Michelangelo di Battista has been shown at CWC Gallery in Berlin and Fotografiska Museum in Stockholm.
