Camden Arts Centre è lieta di presentare per la fine dell'anno, una cinque giorni con un

Il programma in inglese:
29 December 2009
Over the festive season Camden Arts Centre is running a series of family activities in conjunction with the Eva Hesse and Katja Strunz exhibitions. Working alongside practicing artists, families are invited to book their place to take part in afternoon activities in Animation and Sculpture:
George Wu: Animation workshops (aimed at families with children aged 5-16 yrs)
Tuesday 29 – Wednesday 30 December 2009
2.00 – 4.30pm, £1.00 per session booking required (SOLD OUT)
Wu's first taste of filming came from being selected as a winner in the BBC New Music Shorts 2006, leading to an MA at the Royal College of Art. The Animation workshops aim to take Katja Strunz’s musical, animated assemblages and sculptures as a starting point, inspiring visitors to make their own animated film, experimenting with drawing and making.
Viyki Turnbull: Clay workshops (aimed at families with children aged 5-16 yrs)
Wednesday 30 – Thursday 31 December 2009
2.00 – 4.30pm, £1.00 per session booking required (SOLD OUT)
The clay workshops are led by Viyki Turnbull, who has worked with young people as part of various arts education programmes at galleries including Tate Modern, Tate Britain, Whitechapel Art Gallery and the National Portrait Gallery.
Taking Eva Hesse’s experimental approach to materials and sculpture as inspiration, the clay workshops will encourage participants to use clay in new and unexpected ways beyond functional ceramics – as a sculptural material in its
own right.
