On Sunday, January 13, 2012, at 14:00, the PinchukArtCentre invites 10 to 12 year old childrento join a Walking –Talking class entitled Text in Visual Art.
Through the examples of the art objects created by the nominees for the Generation Art Prize 2012, in particular Basim Magdi, Emily Roysdon and Meris Angioletti, young visitors will reflect on how images and text interact. During a practical section of the class children will explore the ways to manipulate perception of an art object by means of a text.
The classwill start at 14:00 in the reception area on the 2nd floor of the art centre. Ludmila Bulanova, PinchukArtCentre’s tour guide, will host the event.
Walking–Talking is an educational program held in the context of the exhibition of 21 shortlisted artists for the Future Generation Art Prize 2012. It offers a new series of 7 classes with a mission to introduce young participants to the diversity of contemporary artistic practices from around the world. Children will have the opportunity to study in detail different types of contemporary art forms and their positioning within the museum space. Each class will consist of a theory part delivered in a form of a discussion, and of a practical part – solving a puzzle.
