An afternoon of work in a historical artistic silkscreen workshop. You will browse the historical archive consisting in almost half a century of contemporary art.
Then you’ll get familiar with this printing technique and experience it in the place where artists such as Vedova, Guttuso, Richter, Obey have printed their works.
But most of all, you will realize a 3-color silkscreen print to take home, representing a Venetian palace. It will come out in 10 copies, so that you can give it to your friends as a unique souvenir of your trip to Venice.
A couple of mandatory requirements: curiosity and will to play with colors!

ARTISAN FOR AN HOUR
Gianpaolo, screen printer
A tour inside the discovery of screen-silk printing, a technique that allows you to experiment with colors and make a reproducible work of art while maintaining its uniqueness. The hands-on workshop takes place in the historic silkscreen laboratory of Cannaregio, in a unique and authentic Venice where art and tradition come together and come to life in the ancient crafts of the artisan workshops. Immersed in an archive consisting of more than a thousand works of art printed from 1968 to present, you will learn the secrets of the silkscreen and you will experience the printing of a one-color graphic on a support you choose among cardboard, t-shirt or canvas bag, which you'll take home as a souvenir of a creative and unusual adventure.

CREATE YOUR OWN STAMP
Anita, engraver
The creation of your own stamp begins with the definition of a logo. After that we'll etch on a linoleum board (cm10x10, will be provided by the artisan) the chosen drawing. In the first part of the workshop we'll define the drawing and we'll start the etching.we'll conclude the definition of the stamp. Later we'll do some printing trials on different types of papers, handmade papers, card-boards, fabrics and plastic materials. Each participant will bring home his own stamp to be used on his own letterhead, on letters and envelopes!
