What are we going to do?
The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw invites you to a drawing and painting workshop inspired by the exhibition “You Are at the Heart of Change: Surrealism and Anti-Fascism.”
During the workshop, we’ll learn about selected Surrealists and examine their approaches to depicting landscapes. What logic guided the artists as they recreated their worlds? Together, we’ll paint a large-format picture depicting our “strange land.”
What will we be doing?
We’ll begin the workshop with a short guided tour of the exhibition. We’ll learn how the Surrealists went beyond traditional ways of composing landscapes. This shared observation will serve as our starting point for a discussion about the transformative power of painting as a tool for building worlds on our own terms.
In the next part of the session, we’ll move to the education room. We’ll establish rules for each of our paintings so that the individual landscapes blend seamlessly together. We’ll talk about what our extraordinary landscape will look like. Then we’ll focus on individually finishing specific sections of the canvas. When combined, these works will create a large, collaborative landscape.
The workshop is suitable for participants of all skill levels.
Important Tips
A workshop ticket grants admission to the exhibition up to 2 hours before the event.
