Pratt in Venice appeared in the story “26 Ways of Looking at Pratt: A Visual Alphabet of the Institute” in the December issue of Prattfolio, the biannual magazine of Pratt Institute.
In this year of change, many things that link us remain constant, though aspects of them may have adapted or evolved. Prattfolio takes an A-to-Z look at some of the elements of Pratt Institute that our community has made special, inspired by recent Interior Design graduate Ashika Amarnath’s graphic tour of cherished places in New York City (including Pratt!). Our riff on the project is a non-exhaustive collection of unique sights, sounds, events, landmarks, and more that we appreciate, continue to enjoy in new ways, and look forward to experiencing again together— even as we create new traditions and reimagine our world at Pratt.
V: Pratt in Venice
Just one of the study-abroad opportunities offered by Pratt, along with programs in Rome, Berlin, Copenhagen, Tokyo, and more, Pratt in Venice has given students the chance to broaden their global artistic horizons for 35 years and counting. The program immerses students in the city’s art, architecture, culture, and one-of-a-kind environment—a “dazzling interplay of water, light, and sky,” in the words of fine arts professor Michael Brennan. Brennan illuminates the lasting impressions of teaching and learning in the Floating City in a video series Pratt in Venice began releasing this fall, anticipating the future of international education at Pratt.
