In his capacity as Artistic Director of the Gage Academy of Art,
Faigin leads exclusive art tours to cultural destinations across the
United States and Europe.
With equal doses of history, biography and
artistic technique, Faigin brings the context of Western art alive to
small groups of art lovers who relish taking educational vacations
while visiting museums, galleries and artists’ studios. Since
1995, Faigin has led American & European Art Tours.
Academy Art Tours are designed by Faigin in collaboration with
Gage Executive Director, Pamela Belyea. Tour participants stay in
charming, centrally-located 4- and 5-star hotels and enjoy comfort
and camaraderie with a dynamic group of like-minded connoisseurs.
Faigin is currently scheduled to lead the following tours:
| June 2011 |
Art
d'Espana: Art Treasures of Madrid and Barcelona |
| August 2011 |
In
the Steps of Georgia O'Keefe: Ghost Ranch and Beyond |
“The tour exceeded my hopes in bringing to life
Renaissance art and European history. The “working
artist” visits were also helpful, including the mosaic
artist in Ravenna and our tour of the Florence Academy of
Art. Gary was an exceptional guide; only now do I realize
that he’s an ascended reincarnation of Renaissance Man,
thinly disguised as a 21st century art teacher!”
