On the first Sunday of each month, join a professional artist to explore the galleries followed by a hands on workshop inspired by the objects in the exhibition. This program is suitable for ages 6 and up.
This month’s workshop begins with a gallery tour, with art educator Reuben King leading an exciting inquiry-based discussion of the MAD exhibition Korean Eye: Energy and Matter —an exciting collection of contemporary works by Korean artists. Children and adults alike will be fascinated by how these artists explore materials and processes.
Participants will then proceed to one of our 6th floor classroom studios where, inspired by what you’ve seen, then explore a particular sculpting method using repurposed magazine pages with pictures, colors and words, laminated for durability.
Create cool sculptural assemblages, using images and shapes, based on your own stories, experiences or fantasies.
Come and experience the possibilities, and learn new ways to use your old photos or magazines. Learn another fun project that children of all ages and adults alike can enjoy! MAD classroom studios present breathtaking views of Central Park. What could be more stimulating?
Korean Eye inspiration: Jang Seung Hyos' “Mash In. Episode” and “Uptown Girl” and Ji young Hos' “Bullman.”
