Henri Matisse
In the early 40s, Henri Matisse created exclusively appliqués. In the first workshop we will get acquainted with his special technique and create one or more of our own collages using different basic principles of composition. First we work on creating a sketch, drawing on knowledge of Matisse's work with collage. You will receive a set of colored paper, cutting out individual elements of the image with scissors and/or a scalpel and creating elements of your design. You can use your motives. After the preparatory stage, you will assemble your own Matisse. Each participant will have the opportunity to create their own drawing according to their personal master plan. In this master class you will make 1-3 images on A3 DIN paper.
Pablo Picasso
Each participant receives a choice of several different linocut designs created by Picasso. After copying the image onto A4 DIN linoleum, you can start cutting out your printing plate. Pablo Picasso developed a special unique technique for creating linocuts using 2-4 different colors. Receiving expert advice, we will create and consistently print each color several times. In this master class you will make 1-3 images on A3 DIN paper.
