On October 13, Kyiv sketchers will gather in Prospekt shopping mall to make reportage sketches in the shopping mall. This drawing technique becomes more and more popular in European cities - Paris, Madrid, Warsaw, Prague. Artists-sketchers perceive the world around us as reportage, fixing a frame in time and in space.
“Creative shop windows, shopping malls, social space of shopping malls, emotions of visitors during shopping and leisure activities – all these things can draw the attention of a sketcher. Therefore, being a receiving party, we are open to contemporary art and give the artists time and space in Prospect shopping mall to make their own sketches. It is interesting for us to look at our shopping mall through sketches. I would add for myself that the dynamics of the modern world gives rise to laconicism, creativity and fast-solutions.
We get accustomed to the fact that writers write posts instead of essays and extensive publications, and painters make sketches instead of painting pictures. And this is interesting,” Olena Obukhivska, PR manager of Prospekt shopping mall, says. During the sketch session of the artists, guests of Prospekt shopping mall will have an opportunity to participate in creative processes and to make their own sketches at the sketch workshops both for children and for adults.
“For us, journalists, it is also important to feel the sketch artists and to see how they fix the environment in one sketch. We plan to talk with them and to prepare an analytical material in an entertaining style, in order to show our readers new trends in modern art which anyone can join. At least, we think so,” Svitlana Maksymets, Weekend editor, says.
Join the fast-art movement of sketchers in Prospekt shopping mall - try to create the urban motives in sketches by yourself.
The event starts at 12:00. If you see a person drawing this Saturday in Prospekt shopping mall, you should know that this is a sketch artist, making an art report in the shopping mall. Art Mart hypermarket in Prospekt shopping mall is the art partner of the event.
