Let’s Draw Art | Concrete or Abstract?

Let’s Draw Art is back – the Abbonamento Musei event designed to entertain young artists with pencils and markers, which this year are provided by the historic company CARIOCA. Children up to age 12 play, learn, and have fun with the works in the exhibitions and museum collections, interacting with art in dedicated workshops.

On Sunday, April 19, from 3:30 to 4:30 pm, CAMERA will host the event Concrete or Abstract?, where children will be invited to observe Edward Weston’s photographs from different perspectives, giving free rein to their imagination.

From a distance, it’s a desert, but up close it looks like a drawing; from a distance, it’s an artichoke, but up close the leaves become lines; from a distance it’s a seashell, but up close it’s a collection of curves. Edward Weston had a superpower: he could transform real things into shapes and signs, as if they were abstract drawings. Shall we try to decipher his most mysterious images?

At the end of the activity, a snack will be provided by Biraghi.

Let’s Draw Art costs €5 per child, while an accompanying adult is eligible for a reduced-price ticket (€10).
