THE HUMAN BEING AT THE CENTER
The Museum of Cycladic Art’s International Kids’ Art Contest celebrates its 10th anniversary this year! The contest under the theme “The Human Being at the Center” invites our young friends aged 4-15 to capture the role of Humans through their journey across cultures, different eras, space and time.
The children’s works will be presented this year in a large on-site exhibition at the City of Athens Arts Centre between September 23 and 29, with the collaboration of City of Athens Culture, Sports and Youth Organization (OPANDA).
This year’s main character is the Female Figurine (ca. 2700-2400/2300 BC) which is on display on the 1st floor of the Museum in the permanent “Cycladic Art” exhibition. The human form takes us back in time, 5000 years ago, when humans created the Cycladic Figurines, one of the most distinctive forms of Human representation ever made. The children create art inspired by the transformations of Human beings through the history of cultures, the works and the environment that they make. Which era do they live in and what kind of clothes do they wear? What country are they from? What kind of social message are they passing on? Can we imagine what their future may look like? What kind of environment will they live in and what will be their profession?
Send us your work until May 30th.
