Art workshop for adults and seniors / integration and intergenerational programme: Studio Photography / to the Pavel Jasanský exhibition

The photography workshops will reflect the work of Czech multimedia artist Pavel Jasanský and his non-commissioned documentary photography. During the workshops entitled Studio Photography, participants will be introduced to studio portrait and still-life photography. When taking pictures, we will use a creative approach to working with studio lighting and composition. As part of group activities, everyone will have the opportunity to try their hand at being both a model and a photographer. The creative process will be based on discovery and experimentation, with the adventure of creation itself playing a central role.

 

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.

This activity is implemented with the financial support of UNHCR (The UN Refugee Agency) and the Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic.

Saturday Art Workshop: Photography versus Painting / to the Pavel Jasanský exhibition

Through art workshops, we will provide visitors with an interactive introduction to the first extensive retrospective exhibition of the photographer, graphic designer and artist Pavel Jasanský. We will draw inspiration from an exploration of his multifaceted work, which includes photography (documentary and portrait), painting, sculpture, video and intermedia. During individual interactions with the works and their subsequent interpretation and discussion, we will confront and compare the diverse perspectives of programme participants on each specific work and series of photographs. As part of our artistic responses, we will use mixed-media and experimental techniques such as painting in combination with photography / colouring black-and-white photographs with watercolours and ink, photo collages as well as graphic techniques such as paper printing, blind printing, etc. We will also draw inspiration from the artist’s graphic work to create designs for record covers and posters in the form of photographic collages, also in combination with simple relief printing. As part of our exploration of new media, we will try our hand at creating so-called “video sculptures” – multimedia works in which we will project Jasanský’s photographs onto objects and create short videos.

The workshops will develop visual, information and media literacy and promote creative and critical thinking.

Art workshop for adults and seniors / integration and intergenerational programme: Silkscreen Print / to the The Palace of (Leisure) Time exhibition

Our artistic responses will focus on the concept of an exhibition that reflects on the ways we spend our leisure time. A series of art workshops will include handicraft, sensory and haptic experiences, and creative collaboration with experts and regular workshop participants.

The workshop series, called Silkscreen Print, will introduce participants to a traditional printmaking technique that allows for the creation of original prints on paper and textiles. Throughout the workshop, we will familiarise ourselves with the principles of this method and learn how to work with stencils and colours. Each participant will create their own template, which they will then transfer to the printing surface. The art programme will be held in cooperation with Iva Grundová.

 

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.

Art workshop for adults and seniors / integration and intergenerational programme: Figure, Collage and Photogram / to the Tono Stano exhibition

The work of the world-famous photographer Tono Stano will serve as the inspiration for the photography workshops.  The workshop series Figure, Collage and Photogram will focus on the creation of images through the principle of montage. While working on their art, participants will learn about various techniques, including collage, photomontage and assemblage. They will also experiment with art disciplines such as painting, frottage and impression. The resulting image will be further developed using the photogram technique. Workshop participants will learn the basics of Stano’s art, i.e., working with cast shadows and exposing photographic paper using an artificial light source, followed by developing and fixing the resulting black-and-white image. The series of workshops entitled Light, Shadow and Shape will focus on studio photography. When taking pictures, we will use a creative approach to working with light, shadow and composition, suppressing reality and focusing on the abstraction of the portrait and body, lines and stylisation in photography. The creative process will be based on exploration and experimentation, with the adventure of creating art playing a central role throughout.

 

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.
