One day, the chess pieces came to life and created their own country! But the inhabitants of the Land of Pawns were a little outnumbered and needed new ones!
In this workshop, children visit Marcel Dzama: Dancing with The Moon, full of colorful characters and fairy tale heroes, and discover the artist's sculptures inspired by chess pieces. Then, they use their imagination to design new pawns for the Land of Pawns. Children make their big pawns with colorful styrofoam pieces and complete their designs by painting the heroes of this fun adventure and using various decoration materials.

Henryk Weyssenhoff, author of landscapes, prints, and illustrations, devoted much of his creative energies to realistic vistas of Belorussia, Lithuania, and Samogitia. A descendant of an ancient noble family which moved east to the newly Polonised Inflanty in the 17th century, the young Henryk was raised to cherish Polish national traditions.
A series of small and rather similar nudes Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu and Eren Eyüboğlu produced in the early 1930s almost resemble a ‘visual conversation’ that focus on a pictorial search. It is also possible to find the visual reflections of this earlier search in the synthesis Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu reached with his stylistic abstractions in the 1950s.
Men were the first nudes in Turkish painting. The majority of these paintings were academic studies executed in oil paint; they were part of the education of artists that had finally attained the opportunity to work from the live model. The gender of the models constituted an obstacle in the way of characterizing these paintings as ‘nudes’.
