Exhibition of 26 graphic stories, illustrated during the year 2014-2015 by students of the Postgraduate in Creative Illustration of EINA, coordinated by Philip Stanton.
The show located at Espai educArt del Museu Nacional, you will find reproductions of some of the illustrations by students and a selection of the original sketch books. Among the topics, portraits (of visitors, workers and collaborators of the institution...), the art pieces and the rooms in the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya, represented in humoristic, poetic or of protest tone, according to the personal style of each author.
Next October 29th, from 10 to 6pm, a happening will take place, where eight of the creators will draw a mural at the entrance and on one of the walls of the exhibition room. This performative activity will inaugurate the exhibit, that can be visited during the entire month of November 2015.
The murals are meant to be a reflection upon the mix and plurality of the styles and approaches, where the portraits, art pieces and spaces of the museum will be represented according to the style of the 8 creators, mixing and blending their drawings with one another and thus creating a "collage" or visual “stamping”.
