Drawing Week in the City of Science was based on a series of events revolving around drawing as a medium, technique, and source of inspiration.<\/p>\n
The programme featured workshops for children (in the Youth Palace in Katowice, and the Kato Science Corner x Metrolab), workshops for children and adults (Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Katowice), and Ucholokacja \u2013 4-day workshops in Planetarium \u2013 The Silesian Science Park. Participants could enjoy exhibitions and listen to lectures at the \u2018Rondo Sztuki\u2019 Gallery, the Academy of Fine Arts and Design and Sza\u0142fynster Gallery in Katowice.<\/p>\n
Almost\u00a0640 recipients<\/strong> took part in 15 activities<\/strong> taking place within Drawing Week.\u00a0<\/p>\n Some of the events was not open to the general public due to their special character, for instance, workshops for children hospitalised in the Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology in Zabrze and the Upper Silesian Child Health Centre in Katowice. They resulted in a project for a mural, which we will see in spring in the urban space of Katowice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n So was the character of workshops with seniors from Cz\u0119stochowa. Participants observed the light, built self-portraits, highlighted and used transparent structures to create drawing objects that can become beautiful cards dedicated to themselves.<\/p>\n \u2018Drawing can be a sketch, a note, a record of one\u2019s first thought, or a project. We can even say that drawing is a state of mind. It keeps us company from the very start of our lives, regardless of whether someone uses it professionally or doodles during a boring phone call. Nevertheless, drawing is not only a visual expression. The equivalent of drawing can be found in audio registers and performative actions. It is also a therapeutic tool. During Drawing Week in the City of Science, we considered drawing as a source we experience from the very beginning,\u2019 informs Prof. Grzegorz Ha\u0144derek<\/strong>, one of the curators of Drawing Week.<\/p>\n The Academy of Fine Arts and Design took up the subject of drawing as an everchanging medium. The subject was covered during numerous meetings, conferences and exhibitions organised during the International Student Drawing Triennial<\/strong>. The participation in these activities (during each edition) features artists whose domain is drawing and all related fields. Each time, the Triennial gains new audience and creators, finds new educational and artistic qualities in the covered areas, and exhibits the great potential lying in the medium of drawing.<\/p>\n Participants of Drawing Week had a chance to meet\u00a0Monika Grzymala\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 a contemporary sculptor and drawing artist, author of installations focused on drawing, and a lecturer and visiting professor at the University of Arts HBK Braunschweig Germany (2005\u20132007 and 2012\u20132013) and the University of Applied Arts Vienna Austria (2013\u20132014).<\/p>\n Drawing is a subject of studies of artists associated with the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Katowice including: Prof. Janusz Karbowniczek<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Prof. Jolanta Jastrz\u0105b<\/a>. Drawing is a subject matter of employees of the Faculty of Art\u2019s Intermedia and Scenography Department, especially those associated with the Multigraphical Creations Studio, the Intermedia and Digital Techniques Studio, and the Interpretation of Literature Studio.
