Our Art programme is offered according to your artistic skills and school experience.

Our Art teacher will evaluate them and will discuss with you about your goals and main interests in Art techniques. Also please note that all participants will attend a minimum of 56 class hours per 4-week period through a combination of mainly drawing and painting classes.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>The programme and the techniques</strong></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/arte_ott9.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="arte_ott9" src="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/arte_ott9-269x300.jpg" alt="" width="159" height="175" /></a>The first 12 weeks introduce basic drawing (proportions, shading and perspective) and various painting techniques (especially acrylics and watercolour) while the following 12 weeks aim at developing and improving students artistic skills. At the end of these six months students will have acquired the basic knowledge required towards the making of their personal portfolios and will concentrate on the study of one specific technique, such as:<br />
Portrait: Through making rapid strokes in pencil (or charcoal) students will learn how to portray the essential features of a human face, and through more elaborate drawings they will focus on details, on the effect of light and shade (“the chiaroscuro”), as well as on the psychological value of facial expression.<br />
Oil paint gives a “richness” and depth of colour that stresses on the shading and the highlighting. At the end of the semester Students will have learnt to emphasise or fade the brightness of the colours of different objects and the effects of light on metal, glass and bodies.<br />
<a href="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/arte_ott1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="arte_ott1" src="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/arte_ott1-300x224.jpg" alt="" width="209" height="156" /></a>Egg tempera paint is made from finely ground dry pigments, egg yolk and water. Students will learn to master this fast drying medium that is fluid by nature and must be applied thinly in semi-opaque and transparent layers. They will realize how different this linear style is from the thick, brushy and painterly technique of oil painting. They will also appreciate the subtle colour variations so characteristic of egg tempera painting (unlike the deep saturated colours typical in oil paints).<br />
Fresco is one of the oldest painting techniques. It was invented by the Egyptians who later taught it to the Greeks. But it was only in the 14th century, thanks to the Italian painter Giotto, that the fresco technique gained more and more importance among the Fine Arts.<br />
<a href="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/p1010034.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="studying Italian in Florence" src="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/p1010034-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="178" height="235" /></a>The most peculiar quality of fresco painting lies undoubtedly in its making: the pigment &#8211; a natural material &#8211; is laid on a fresh plaster several times in a short lapse of time, and through a cohesion process it fixes itself in the plaster, creating warm and subtle tones. The artist can make no mistakes, as correcting them would imply destroying the whole work. That is why the fresco technique is particularly difficult to learn and master.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>SEMINARS ON ART HISTORY</strong></span></p>
<p>“From Giotto to Mannerism” and “The Renaissance in Florence and Italy”.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/arte-a-Firenze.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13046" title="arte a Firenze" src="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/arte-a-Firenze-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a>Pendant la belle saison <a href="http://www.adg.it/francese/contact.html">notre école</a> organise plusieurs séminaires d&#8217;art sur une base hebdomadaire. Ces cours-ci ont lieu<strong> du lundi au vendredi</strong> tant le matin que l&#8217;après-midi, soit dans notre atelier qu&#8217;en plein air, dans le rues et les places de Florence, ou même dans la campagne toscane. Chaque programme, organisé par nos enseignants experts, comprend <strong>30-32 heures de cours en petits groups</strong>.</p>
<p>Voici une liste des techniques qui sont abordées dans nos séminaires:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong><span style="color: #993300;">dessin en plein air et paysage;</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #993300;">portrait et autoportrait;</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #993300;">dessin du nu;</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #993300;">dessin au fusain et à la sanguine;</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #993300;">aquarelle;</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #993300;">fresque;</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #993300;">trompe l&#8217;œil;</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span style="color: #993300;">xylographie.</span></strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Ces séminaires-ci s&#8217;adressent particulièrement aux artistes qui savent déjà maîtriser les techniques du dessin et de la peinture, mais qui désirent améliorer leur style personnel à eux ainsi que développer leur créativité. Il n&#8217;en reste pas moins qu&#8217;aussi ces élèves qui ont moins d&#8217;expérience dans le domaine de beaux-arts pourront profiter de ces cours-ci pour apprendre les techniques de base des matières et des sujets qu&#8217;ils aborderont en classe.<br />
Toute classe est composée en moyenne par <strong>6-7 élèves</strong> (maximum 10), c&#8217;est pourquoi chaque élève a la possibilité d&#8217;être suivi singulièrement par nos enseignants.</p>

<p>Notez bien SVP: Quelques uns de ces séminaires-ci se tiennent aussi <a href="http://www.adg.it/francese/art_seminaires.html">pendant l&#8217;automne et l&#8217;hiver</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/klimt-madre.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-19789" title="klimt-madre" src="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/klimt-madre.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="160" /></a>Oggi, domenica 13 maggio, è la festa della mamma e noi vogliamo farle tanti auguri dedicandole questa vecchia canzone popolare e divertente, Mamma tutto, eseguita da <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iva_Zanicchi">Iva Zanicchi</a> con l&#8217;accompagnamento del <a href="http://www.antoniano.it/index.php?id=71">Piccolo coro dell&#8217;Antoniano</a>. Non è la festa dello studente, però: a voi toccherà pertanto di fare gli esercizi che troverete di seguito al testo.</p>
<p>Cominciate <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEKXtMRMw94">ascoltando la canzone</a> e inserendo nel testo le parole mancanti:</p>
<p>________________________________________________________________________________________________</p>
<h3><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Mamma tutto</strong></span></h3>
<p>Chi asciugava i pianti miei? Mamma _______ era lei.<br />
Chi in cucina cucinava? Mamma ______ <span style="color: #000080;">canticchiava</span>.</p>
<p>Io la sera nel lettino, Mamma a ______ lì vicino.<br />
La mia mano nella sua, Mamma ______ mia!</p>
<p>Due più uno fanno tre, Mamma a ______ accanto a me.<br />
Mal di pancia o starnutivo, Mamma ______ avevo.</p>
<p>Mamma _______ ogni anno, quando c&#8217;era il compleanno.<br />
Mamma _______, poi, non mancava mai!</p>
<p>Poi la grande delusione della prima <span style="color: #000080;">passioncella</span><br />
e arrivò Mamma _______<br />
Lei mi strinse nel suo cuore, io dimenticai il dolore<br />
con Mamma _______.</p>
<p>Non sapevo ancora che quella mamma era per me<br />
tutto quel che al mondo c&#8217;è<br />
e in un attimo imparai: Mamma _______ è lei!</p>
<p>Chi asciugava i pianti miei? Mamma _______ era lei.<br />
Chi in cucina cucinava? Mamma _______ canticchiava.</p>
<p>Io la sera nel lettino, Mamma a _______ lì vicino.<br />
La mia mano nella sua, Mamma _______ mia!<br />
La mia mano nella sua, Mamma _______ mia!</p>
<p><em>Canticchiava</em> e <em>passioncella</em> sono forme alterate del verbo cantare e del sostantivo passione: entrambe servono per indicare la leggerezza con cui si descrivono queste due parole, si canticchia senza troppo concentrarsi sulla musica o sul testo e si definisce qui passioncella il primo innamoramento, la prima cotta adolescenziale. Alterare dunque una parola, che sia un verbo o un sostantivo, un aggettivo o un avverbio, ci permette di arricchire di sfumature il nostro vocabolario.</p>
<p>Adesso, facendo riferimento a questo <a href="http://www.adgblog.it/2012/03/03/le-forme-alterate/">post </a>:</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #333399;">Esercizio 1.</span></strong> Alterate secondo il vostro giudizio le seguenti parole:<br />
mano, piede, casa, porta, vaso, quadro, ragazzo, zia, scatola, bacio.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800080;">Esercizio 2</span></strong>. Fate il diminutivo dei seguenti nomi di animali e rendeteli di piccole dimensioni:<br />
cane, gatto, passerotto, lucertola, pollo, piccione.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Esercizio 3.</strong></span> Alcune parole sembrano essere forme alterate di altre. Nel seguente esercizio indicate quali NON sono forme alterate tra bottone, parolina, ammucchiare, leggiucchiare, postino, gattuccio, coniglietto, pecorino, stiracchiare, stornello, pulcino, calzone, cartina, cartone, macchinare, tacchino.</p>
<p><span style="color: #993300;"><strong>Esercizio 4.</strong></span> Il cucciolo della volpe è il volpino o il volpacchiotto? Il cucciolo del lupo è il lupacchiotto o il lupino? Un cane di grossa dimensione è un canone o un cagnolone? La scarpa da montagna è la scarpona o lo scarpone? Un gallo giovane è un galletto o un gallino? Un tipo che non vuole capire è uno zucchino o uno zuccone?</p>

<p>The <strong><a href="http://www.adg.it/inglese/sketchbook_in_florence.html">Sketchbook and Landscape Workshop</a></strong> has been conceived for those students who wish to discover (or rediscover) in a week the poetry and the magic of Florence, with its <strong>renaissance buildings</strong> and its skyline dominated by the enthralling <strong>cathedral dome</strong>, as well as the relaxing atmosphere of the <strong>Tuscan countryside</strong>, with its vineyards and olive groves. The aim of the course is to help the student to create a sketchbook with unforgettable memories of the historic city and its pastoral surroundings.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The course can be recommended both to Art novices and to experienced artists and professionals who intend to familiarize with the freehand drawing as well as with the perspective sketch. During outdoor sessions students will learn how to draw and paint landscapes and architectural elements, such as squares, medieval towers, churches and narrow streets. The following techniques can be chosen: <strong>pencil</strong>, <strong>water colour</strong>, <strong>oil painting</strong> and <strong>pastel</strong>. Practice will concentrate mainly on the <strong>use of colour</strong> and on the <strong>perspective method</strong>.</p>
<p>The workshop has a duration of <strong>5 days</strong>, Monday to Friday, for a total amount of <strong>32 hours</strong> of tuition, and it includes a <strong>one-day excursion by private bus</strong> in the countryside of the Chianti hills.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/balla_darragh.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-19652" title="balla_darragh" src="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/balla_darragh.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>Si inaugura <strong>oggi</strong> pomeriggio, venerdì 4 maggio 2012, alle <strong>18:30,</strong> presso la <strong>Galleria Abracadabra</strong> in via dell&#8217;Amorino 9r a Firenze, la mostra di Lauraballa e Darragh Hehir, <em><strong>Nei panni dell &#8216;altro &#8211; In Someone Else&#8217;s Shoes</strong>.</em></p>
<p><em>Maschere che ci aiutano a rapportarci con gli altri; maschere che parlano per noi e nascondono i nostri veri pensieri. Ma cosa succederebbe se ce le scambiassimo e provassimo a calarci in quelle dell’altro?</em></p>
<p><em>Masks that help us to communicate with others; masks that speak for us and hide our true thoughts. But what would happen if we were to swap masks and look at the world from someone else&#8217;s point of view?</em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.lauraballa.it">Lauraballa</a> è pittrice, scultrice ed illustratrice: nasce in Svizzera, ma si stabilisce a Prato in giovane età, dove risiede ed apre la sua bottega d’artista in Via Mazzini, 34.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.darragh.eu">Darragh Hehir</a> è un fotografo professionista, web designer e developer nato a Dublino e trasferitosi a Prato nel 2002 dove lavora come freelance.</p>
<p><strong>La mostra</strong></p>
<p><em>Quattro maschere su un supporto ligneo, che sintetizzano i caratteri peculiari di quattro soggetti e l’interazione di un gruppo di volontari con esse, basata su una scelta soggettiva, istintiva. Quest’idea sta alla base del progetto dell’artista </em>Lauraballa<em>, sviluppato in collaborazione col fotografo </em>Darragh Hehir<em>, che ne ha prodotto un reportage fotografico.<span id="more-19650"></span></em></p>
<p><em>Si aggiunge la location della mostra, giunta in maniera casuale, ma quanto mai appropriata, ovvero la galleria “Abracadabra” del maestro della pittrice toscana: </em><a href="http://www.alicemasks.com/home.htm">Agostino Dessì</a><em>, conosciuto in tutto il mondo per le sue creazioni in</em><br />
<em>papier mache. Le espressioni messe a fuoco dagli scatti sono tante quante le sensazioni percepite nel mettersi nei panni altrui: curiosità, conforto, inquietudine, traspaiono dalle istantanee e spesso stridono con le opere di Laura. </em></p>
<p><em>Un work in progress, a cui si affiancheranno ad opere pittoriche inedite di </em>Lauraballa<em>, che ha le caratteristiche per ampliarsi e lasciare un segno decisivo nel panorama artistico toscano e non.</em></p>
<p>(Silvia Mordini)</p>
<p>La mostra rimarrà aperta tutti i giorni dalle <strong>14:00</strong> alle <strong>18:00</strong> fino a <strong>venerdì 18 maggio 2012</strong>. È possibile visitarla su prenotazione chiamando il 3474829303 o il 3402725835 o inviando una email a info@lauraballa.it.</p>

Workshops will be held on the following dates:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>June 4th &#8211; 8th 2012</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong> July 30th &#8211; August 3rd 2012</strong></span></p>
<p>The teacher will guide the students through the different phases of this original and ancient technique. At the end of this short but very intensive workshop, students will have acquired the necessary skills for making a fresco on their own.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/fresco.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="fresco workshop" src="http://www.adgblog.it/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/fresco-300x224.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="224" /></a>The most peculiar quality of the fresco painting lies undoubtedly in its making: the pigment – a natural material – is laid on a fresh plaster several times in a short lapse of time, and through a cohesion process it fixes itself in the plaster, creating warm and subtle tones. The artist can make no mistakes, as correcting them would imply destroying the whole work. That is why the fresco technique is particularly difficult to learn and master.</p>
<p>During the workshop the students will follow the essential steps to making a fresco: for example they will learn how to prepare the “arriccio” (the preliminary layer of plaster spread on the tile), the cardboard for the sinopia and the use of the pigments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Next Summer <a href="http://www.adg.it/">Accademia del Giglio</a> will organize <strong><a href="http://www.adg.it/inglese/trompe_oeil.html">Trompe-l&#8217;oeil seminars in Florence</a></strong> on the following dates:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">June 11th &#8211; 15th 2012</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">August 6th &#8211; 10th 2012</span><br />
<span style="color: #993300;">September 24th &#8211; 28th 2012</span></strong></p>
<p>This conspicuous technique originates in the 15th century from the encounter of the Italian perspective with the Flemish realistic paintings. As the meaning of the French expression clearly tells (&#8220;trompe-l&#8217;oeil&#8221;), its explicit aim is to &#8220;deceive the eye&#8221; of the observer. The first unreal objects were actually painted on a wall and represented every-day-life things on a fictitious table or shelf. The trompe-l&#8217;oeil technique became more refined and elaborate later in the Baroque period, during which hunting trophies, perching birds, precious cabinets, game tables and several other sophisticated artistic objects were often painted for aristocratic families and rich merchants.</p>
<p>During this course students will be introduced to the study and analysis of the most celebrated artworks, by showing them the mastery and expertise in this technique of some famous painters. Afterwards each student will put into practice what he/she has learnt by creating his/her own trompe l’oeil work. Consequently, the students&#8217; task will be challenging: they will have to take into account the natural size of the objects, make use of the perspective theories, consider the position of the observer towards the fictitious space, as well as create a tridimensional effect through the use of lights and shades.</p>

<p>a) In una piccola città si presentano alle elezioni comunali 11 candidati per la poltrona di sindaco. I candidati a consiglieri comunali sono per la maggior parte parenti o amici dei candidati a sindaco.</p>
<p><span id="more-19412"></span></p>
<p>b) Un politico avrebbe corrotto le testimoni per essere prosciolto al processo contro di lui. Di fronte a tali accuse il politico si è difeso dicendo che in questo modo lui voleva aiutare delle povere ragazze che altrimenti non avrebbero saputo affrontare la poderosa  macchina della giustizia.</p>
<p>c) Esponenti politici leghisti, notoriamente contro gli intellettuali e contro gli immigrati, hanno comprato dei titoli di studio e hanno usato telefonini intestati a immigrati per non essere intercettati.</p>
<p>d) Dopo aver rapinato una banca alcuni ladri hanno perso il malloppo mentre scappavano. Quasi tutti i soldi sono stati raccolti dai passanti. Solo due donne il giorno seguente sono andate in banca per restituire i soldi trovati per terra.</p>
<p>e) Negli ultimi anni il finanziamento pubblico ai partiti politici è notevolmente aumentato, nonostante gli italiani in un referendum si fossero espressi contro tale finanziamento. Ora i partiti vorrebbero istituire un&#8217;autorità di controllo indipendente, la quale però sarebbe controllata dal parlamento, ovvero dai partiti stessi.</p>
<p>f) La senatrice Rosy Mauro ha una relazione con il suo caposcorta, il consigliere regionale Renzino &#8220;Trota&#8221; ha usato soldi pubblici per fare il pieno alla sua BMW, il tesoriere del partito della Margherita ha ricevuto rimborsi benzina per 47mila chilometri in un solo mese.</p>
<p>g) Gli esodati sono quei lavoratori che si sono dimessi per andare in pensione, ma che hanno perso la pensione a causa della nuova riforma del sistema previdenziale.</p>
<p>h) Dopo 38 anni anni la corte d&#8217;assise ha assolto tutti gli imputati per la strage di Piazza della Loggia a Brescia, in cui morirono molte persone.</p>
<p>i) Negli ultimi anni i politici in Italia non hanno saputo guadagnarsi degli italiani soprattutto perché molti di loro sono corrotti e altri non s&#8217;interessano ai problemi reali del paese che sta attraversando una profonda crisi economica.</p>

<p>This workshop is meant not only for beginner students who already have some drawing skills and wish to become acquainted with the watercolor technique, but also for those experienced students who are determined to improve and enrich their portfolio.

<p>This <strong>5-day workshop</strong> will start on Monday morning and will end on Friday afternoon, for a total amount of <strong>32 hours of tuitio</strong><strong>n</strong>, which will include a <strong>one-day excursion</strong> (approximately 8 hours of en plein air lessons) <strong>in the Tuscan countryside</strong>.
