From 7 to 11 September, we will welcome children aged 6 to 11 to CAMeC for a week of workshops exploring the languages of modern and contemporary art. The activities are part of “5 Musei in un Castello”, the summer programme of creative workshops promoted by the Cultural Services of the Municipality of La Spezia.
From Monday 7 to Friday 11 September, from 8.00 am to 1.00 pm, we will offer five mornings dedicated to discovering art through observation, experimentation and hands-on activities.
The workshops are designed to turn encounters with artworks and the museum into an active, participatory experience, encouraging children’s curiosity and creativity.
From Pistoletto to street art
Throughout the week, we will draw inspiration from key artists, movements and languages of modern and contemporary art.
Children will experiment with activities inspired by Michelangelo Pistoletto’s mirror paintings, Futurism and Aeropainting, graffiti and street art, different representations of the landscape, and the surreal worlds evoked by the works of Wifredo Lam and René Magritte.
