Window to my world - concrete sculpture workshop with sculptor Balázs Veres
The workshop consists of two organically linked sessions. Tickets are valid for both sessions and are transferable. Details below!
Have you ever created in concrete?
Do you know what formwork is?
Now you can make your own concrete sculpture in a 24X24 cm panel. The theme will be the window, starting with a look at David Hockney's work in our collection.
During the workshop, you will learn a lot about concrete and how to use it as a material for sculpture. A formwork is required to make the casting, which everyone will make themselves. The window will be the theme, but there will be the opportunity to shape it in different ways to create one or two cassette, square or arched window designs.
If you want to learn how to work with concrete, this is the place to try an exciting technique! You are in for one of the most exciting workshops of your life!
Schedule
The programme will be led by sculptor Balázs Veres.
Balázs Veres graduated as a sculptor at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Pécs. During his university years he met concrete, which is still the main raw material of his sculpture. In 2016, he founded the Monostor Art Centre, creating together with Hungarian and foreign artists one of the most important workshops for concrete sculpture outside the institutions in Hungary. He has participated in numerous exhibitions in Hungary and abroad and his works can be found in several private collections and public spaces.
Ludwig Museum
The Ludwig Museum - Museum of Contemporary Art, located in Müpa, is the first museum in Hungary to exclusively collect contemporary art. In addition to a permanent exhibition of the collection donated by the Ludwigs and a number of temporary exhibitions, the museum aims to raise awareness of the works and their creators through special publications and a variety of art education and art education programmes.
