By [email protected] | Published: February 3, 2012

The Starting point was the concept of tourist gaze :

The tourist gaze keeps the sensory surface of a place, the attentive impression of the stranger …
The local gaze keeps the sense of place with memories of life experience feelings of a life time in a place …
Can we make an interaction between tourist and local gaze?

The starting point was discussed with a small group of artists, art teachers and cultural agents from the city ( Viseu anti-poverty League; Viseu cineclube; Emporium ). The elements of the group provided an alternative map of the city , almost all of them had been involved with social-cultural projects with non-profit and charitable organisations. So one of the focus of the discussion led us to look for alternative places and people in the city. To collect stories from people that are not often visible to foreign visitors. During July- September 2011 we discussed the rationales of the project, ethical, ontological and practical issues related to the topic. We defined general lines and a plan of action. It was agreed that we would involve communities that already had participated in artist or school projects, ways of getting in contact with them were established. We also agreed in asking local artists to lead the workshops in the second part of the project.

Part 1: The Hidden Stories (October 2011)
During October 2011 students and art teachers from the host schools in Viseu ( ESAM and Viriato) made pictures and interviews with special members of the community .

Part two: Interpreting Stories
In November Viseu students received the students from the other schools ( Finland; Latvia ad Estonia). After showing them around so they could get the tourist gaze. Students were invited to join five workshops with local artists ( Ana Barbero; Yuraldi Rodriguez; Luis Belo; Beatriz Rodrigues , Beatriz Lacerda; and Graeme Pullynen, Contra- Luz designers ), five ways of reflecting upon their own feelings and the stories collected by Portuguese students in October ( transcribed to images and text- translated to English) . Crossing feelings , sharing experiences …
In the last day of the visit students made a Public presentation and discussion, with the members
of the community .

Show your creativity!

By Jane Remm | Published: January 18, 2012

Loovuse töölehtSally Stuudio teachers conducted a creativity test to promote creativity among young people. We designed worksheets based on three basic shapes. Each of the worksheet was filled with one shape: triangles, squares or circles. We payed a visit to five secondary schools in Tallinn and asked about 200 students to continue the basic shapes drawing as many different objects, symbols etc they could imagine. Creative drawing was not as simple as it seemed at first. It took a lot of thinking to draw around fifty different images.

Author:Elizabete BlumaThe aim of the day creative workshop was to offer an opportunity of creative qualification in painting and graphic skills to the youth of 9-16 during summer holidays.
In addition, the youngsters got acquainted with Janis Rozental’s Riga Art High school and the SMALL ART SCHOOL’S work specifics.
The aim was to involve the youth of PARDAUGAVA and the main target of this workshop was to rise children’s creativity in painting compositions and various graphic techniques.
In August of 2011 ( 15.-26.) 13 children of the age of 9 to 15 took part in workshop. There were two children from Switzerland who do the improvement activities there for the second year. For 5 children
the Latvian language is not native. 4 children will continue their education in the SMALL ART SCHOOL.
The programme „Dutch still life” ( 5 days long ) was under the guidance of Inese Siliņa when children painted from nature:
– still lives with a mask, a seagull, fish, flowers, a.c.;
– the copies of Latvian artists’ works;
– figural compositions as to their imagination;
by learning the rules of composition,
mixing of tones, the structure of subjects,
proportion, tonal relationships, using the techniques
of pastel, water-colour and oil.
The programme of Ilgnese Avotiņa „Direr’s workshop”:
-gives in five days the comprehension about 3 printing basic ways (intaglio, letterpress and planography);
-Direr’s activities in the sphere of graphic;
Practically works were made in :
-frotage tecnique;
-ink drawing;
-dry point tecnique;
-linocut;
-cardboard printing;
-printing on cloth (T-shirts);
-individually carried out experiments combining various techniques.
The whole work’s creation process – from sketches till carving, preparing of paper, printing and exposition of works was carried out by children themselves under the guidance of teacher. The participants chose the issues of the creative compositions freely by themselves.
