Indefinite Patterns

School Groups
Primary School

Face-to-Face

Do you know about geometric shapes like triangles, squares or rounds? And how about creating new shapes and patterns? No form and complete freedom... With inspiration from The Rodina’s Map of Empathic Society, we create free and unrestricted abstract patterns without any defined lines or shapes. We scrape paint with colors of our own choice to form color and pattern designs on paper. This workshop combines imagination and creativity while improving hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills.

At the Order of the Padishah

At the Order of the Padishah

In this piece, Żmurko presents an exotic image of a harem chamber, replete with gleaming fabrics and scattered jewels, as a setting for the statuesquely beautiful body of an odalisque murdered “at the order of the padishah”. 

The Battle of Varna

The Battle of Varna

Over the years of 1864 through 1876, Stanisław Chlebowski served Sultan Abdülaziz in Istanbul as his court painter. As it was, Abdülaziz disposed of considerable artistic talents of his own, and he actively involved himself in Chlebowski’s creative process, suggesting ideas for compositions –such as ballistic pieces praising the victories of Turkish arms. 

Return from Vienna

Return from Vienna

Józef Brandt harboured a fascination for the history of 17th century Poland, and his favourite themes included ballistic scenes and genre scenes before and after the battle proper –all and sundry marches, returns, supply trains, billets and encampments, patrols, and similar motifs illustrating the drudgery of warfare outside of its culminating moments.
