The Fool is an ancient figure who invites us to consider the space of incongruity and change. The Fool is always an outsider, but also a jester, surprising us with the purpose of laughter and a renewed and widened view of the world around us.
In this course, we will explore the Fool as a personification of art, as a breaker of norms, and as an inspiration for a better understanding of the world.
