Drawing workshops
The drawing workshop of the Studierendenwerk on the subject of Nudes takes place during the lecture period of the University of Jena in the Haus auf der Mauer (International Centre) every Thursday, 6:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.. Under the artistic direction of the freelance artist Astrid Leiterer you can give free rein to your creativity. Previous knowledge is not necessary.
The participants use pencil, charcoal, pastel chalk, red chalk or ink to try to put the fascination of the line of the human body, the fascination of the expression of the human being itself as well as the representation of the character of the individual on paper. The understanding of proportions, the creation of internal drawings through hatching and the reproduction of the living expression of the model up to abstraction requires a high degree of observation, concentration and creativity and trains the artists not only in drawing.
