Kunsthal Rotterdam

Drop by at the Kunsthal during the May holiday! Immerse yourself in the universe of animation in the exhibition Job, Joris & Marieke. A Triple Life. Get inside the heads of the makers and see how their absurdist narratives and quirky characters come into being. Allow yourself to be taken by surprise by the miraculous and extraordinary sculptures in the exhibition Calder Now. Has all this inspired you? Let your creativity run wild during a workshop in shadow drawing or start creating your own work of art at Studio Calder Now!

Workshop Shadowology

Tuesday 3 May and Wednesday 4 May during opening hours. 
Especially for the exhibition ‘A Triple Life’, Job, Joris and Marieke developed the experience ‘Nobody’. It features a character named Florian: an obsessively driven lifestyle Instagrammer who one day becomes transparent and is left as nothing more than a shadow. Are you curious to find out how you can depict shadows yourself? Join the filmmaker and shadowologist Vincent Bal to create special shadow drawings based on everyday objects. 
You can join the Shadowology workshop throughout the entire day.
