ART DISCOVERY SUMMER CAMP
We are happy to present our first English-speaking art camp. It is based on historical art periods and different kinds of art techniques we will all try.
Learn what is the difference between montage and collage. Explore how the Japanese make paintings with black ink or get to know why Buddhists create mandalas. Make your landscape with watercolor. Try to paint like Van Gogh and the Impressionists. Create an initial like medieval monks but from your name. Try out what kind of representation the ancient Egyptians had. Experience how to make multiplied graphics before the appearance of the printer by using Linocut. Or making dreamlike surrealist paintings like Salvador Dali. These and much more that the camp contains.
Our wandering will last for 5 days. We are going to discover different techniques and artistic eras every day. We are also going to learn how to make art in the style of famous artists such as Piet Mondrian, Pablo Picasso, Hokusai, or Victor Vasarely.
Discounts can not be combined!
