V4 LITERARY ILLUSTRATION WORKSHOP 2

This year the project partners will collectively select and invite 2 outstanding contemporary V4 illustrators as the leaders of the 3 day creative workshop. Our second guest, Joanna Concejo is the one of themost famous, Polish illustrator. The operational part of this project output will be delivered and executed in close cooperation with Csirimojó, HUBBY and Petőfi Literary Museum The illustration conveys information about and enhances understanding of our common past, and similar cultural experience within the V4 region. The image itself is easily decoded and received, understood. and the workshop will discover and research the traces of the characteristic features of V4 book illustrations, and compare the perspectives and themes present in the contemporary book culture, which serve as a starting point for discussion, and opens a platform for future collaborations. The public workshop is targeted mainly at younger generation, in their 20-30's. As part of the workshop, there will be a guest expert (curator and visual artist), who will give a lecture on the V4 features and tendencies in contemporary book illustrations of CZ,PL,HU, and SK graphic artists and illustrators. Participants will have a chance to create something new together with the authors,e learn about their specific viewpoints and methods. https://www.facebook.com/events/1200725254947649
