Adventures in Gorzolandia
Trainer: Maria Grigorescu, visual artist and MARe custodian
The workshop proposes an imaginary journey into the world of Dumitru Gorzo’s colorful characters. Children will imagine a comic strip in which they themselves are the main characters and experience adventures and encounters with the inhabitants of this new realm, Gorzolandia. They will have colored pencils and markers at their disposal. Throughout the workshop, children can draw inspiration from the exhibited works, and the concept of the exhibition “Does Anyone Want to Be Me?” signed by Dumitru Gorzo will be presented to them. In this workshop, children will learn: elements of artistic analysis, comic strip techniques, and basic storytelling concepts.
Wishboard: Dreams in Color
Trainer: Robert Boghiu, cultural mediator, head of Educational MARe
In the first part of the workshop, we will discover the expressive characters in the exhibition “Does Anyone Want to Be Me?”, observing shapes, gestures, and ideas that can spark children’s imagination. Then, each child will create their own wishboard using paper, magazines, colors, and cutouts, illustrating dreams, wishes, and things that make them happy. They will be encouraged to combine images and drawings into a personal and energetic composition. In this workshop, children will understand the important role that imagination and dreams play in the creative process; they will learn to observe, analyze, and interpret elements from an artwork; they will explore the connection between personal dreams and the creative process; they will understand how dreams can inspire and influence artistic creation.
