Photography and drawing workshop for young people with Yvonne Venegas and Álvaro Verduzco

Arte Abierto presents The portrait and its surroundings, a photography and drawing workshop for young people with Yvonne Venegas plus a drawing session with Álvaro Verduzco.

Yvonne Venegas will teach a 4-session workshop that proposes playing with the relationship between photography and drawing to explore the borders between portraiture, advertising and their surroundings.

Seeking in drawing a way to observe the images that surround us, each session will be a combination of drawing exercises and photo practices with natural and artificial light. We will review portrait photography and iconic advertising campaigns, as well as walks and field explorations around Arte Abierto with the artist, whose work

The objective of the workshop is to provide each participant with tools to experiment with how vast the portrait genre is and offer a broader thought about what the relationships are like between advertising games and the images that surround us.

As part of this workshop, we will also have the participation of artist Álvaro Verduzco for a special drawing session.
