16 April to 23 June 2018

Input weeks: 16 April to 4 May 2018

Project weeks: 7 May to 23 June 2018

Ever since prehistoric cave paintings, men have been painting animals. Out of this connection between humans and animals, different artistic currents have been explored, up until the modern times, and embody a force that has unleashed our imagination and creativity. We will approach the following themes:

• Drawing, painting and study of the nature of the animals: the eagle, the lion, the cow and the bee.
• Exploration of the relationship networks between man and the animal
• Implementation of individual animal species in colour and form
• The role of the animal and its mythological representation in the history of art, from the Stone Age to the Modern Era. Field research: zoo, farm
