Croquis-drawing in Becoming Modern
Join us for a croquis drawing session in the Becoming Modern exhibition. Explore the shapes and movements of the human body through drawing – surrounded by works by some of the most celebrated artists in Danish art history.
Croquis is a drawing technique in which a subject is sketched in just a few minutes. The aim is not to create a perfect drawing, but to let go, capture the moment and experiment with line, form and expression.
Artist at Kunsten Inge Tranter will guide you through a series of drawing exercises of varying lengths. She will set creative challenges and inspire you to experiment with different styles and drawing techniques, all while the model takes up a series of poses.
This time, the Becoming Modern exhibition provides the setting. Here, we will gather inspiration from artists such as Anna Ancher, Vilhelm Lundstrøm and Asger Jorn, each of whom experimented with colour, form and composition in their own unique way. With art history as our backdrop, we will try to capture the shapes and movements of the body on paper.
You don’t need any previous experience with croquis or particular drawing skills – just a willingness to be curious, experiment and see the world from a fresh perspective.
Before or after the session, you can enjoy a drink in Brasserie Kunsten, browse the selection of drawing materials in the museum shop, or explore the museum’s other exhibitions.
End your evening in style at Brasserie Kunsten, where the menu celebrates the best seasonal ingredients. We recommend that you book a table in advance.
