Families, the artist Aldo Urbano offers you a workshop starting from the observation of the museum’s Romanesque bestiary. Since Romanesque paintings are fragmented, with archaeological imagination, we’ll have to rebuild with drawings the monster that each have chosen. That’s what Aldo Urbano has done: he has used his head to complete the fantastic beast hump from Sant Joan de Boí.
Once each of us have completed their drawing, between all of us we’ll create a little frieze, cutting and pasting the different drawings and adapting them to the natural form of the holder, the same way the Romanesque paintings used to adapt to the church’s form. It’s a way to see the link between Romanesque paintings and architecture and to also develop a story that can be adapted to the images of the Romanesque monsters. A game between drawing and architecture.
Third activity of Under the museum there’s a beach, original idea by Joana Llauradó with Sergio Monje, Eulàlia Rovira, Adrian Schindler and Aldo Urbano from Sala d'Art Jove.
