Art workshop for adults and seniors / integration and intergenerational programme: Map of the Landscape and Imprint / to the Expanding Our Collection: Acquisitions 2013–2025 exhibition

As part of our artistic responses, we will focus on selected works by artists featured in the exhibition that encompass printmaking. The printmaking workshop Map of the Landscape and Imprint is dedicated to drypoint and monotype techniques as a means of capturing a unique artistic gesture. Participants will work with line, engraving and imprint, drawing inspiration from artists in the exhibition such as Jiří John, Jan Koblasa and František Skála, and from other artists who treat printmaking as process and experiment. We will begin with sketches as records of artistic ideas, then use a simple engraving tool to transfer the final motif to the smooth surface of a small format cardboard plate, which will be used to create a print. The graphic prints (A5 format) will be made using an intaglio printing press.

 

This programme is designed not only for adults and seniors, but also for their children and grandchildren as part of an intergenerational encounter. The workshops are also open to foreign visitors.
