The Tomato Industrial Museum in Vlychada travels to the magic world of art, together with the children of Santorini. Come with us in a journey through the World Art History, beginning from the ancient world of cave paintings to the contemporary art of our century. Through the 6 workshops, which will take place again this year, we will stop in six different historical periods which enhance human creativity. We are experimenting with different techniques and artistic processes (wall-painting, hand-made objects with recycled materials etc.). We will use different materials (painting with tempera colours, painting with acrylic colours, painting with oil pastels etc.). We are also becoming acquainted, in a way adjusted to children, with the major periods of the World History and of our country , as represented through the anonymous artists and the artistic movements of the great painters.
4th JOURNEY: THE COLOURS OF 19TH CENTURY
The Educational Workshop of the Tomato Industrial Museum will in the period of 19th century and will meet the great artists of that period, Manet, Seurat, Cezanne, Van Gogh, Monet. Through their works we will study the way with which the painters of that era reflected the world around them through colours and shapes. In the first part of the workshop the children, using slides, will be get to know the works of the artists who paved the way for modern art. Additionally, the children will paint their own works, influenced from Seurat’s Pointillism.
