Body as a tool
(performance and corporal expression in large paintings)
Work with the idea related to the body and gestures in painting: minimal gesture and maximum gesture. How can the body of the model be used, as the object- tool to paint on the canvas? Body prints as the repetitive abstract element of the painting. Work with and design a performance related to the painting and the body. Some of the artists related to the theme: Yves Klein, Orlan, Niki de Saint Phalle, Lucio Fontana.
Life Drawing
Every afternoon Piotr will give his much loved Life Drawing class with a live model. During the series of workshops students will practice working with gesture and movement, mixing dry and wet techniques to create volume and transparency, using alternative materials, working with color, ink, bleach and iodine in drawing.
