Discovering the world of art, inspired by Pablo Picasso’s paintings

In the March workshop, we focus on Picasso’s Rose Period.

This period coincides with the famous Medrano circus performing in Paris. The Montmartre was bustling with jugglers, acrobats, harlequins and street performers. Picasso and his friends enjoyed street theater and the famous circus’s performances. These shows fascinated and inspired, not only Picasso, but a constellation of leading French artists of the period, including Degas, Toulouse-Lautrec, Seurat etc.

The beggars and outcasts that populated the Blue Period paintings now gave their place to joyous, fun figures enjoying freedom.

In the Rose Period, hopeful adolescents and young people prevail – figures set in open-air spaces, exuding vibrancy and lust for life, contrary to the claustrophobic settings often seen in Blue Period paintings.

In our meetings, we will attempt to conjure our own circus show, producing figures in cardboard, wire, cloth, yarn, white clay and cork.
