The Municipality of Florence and the Metropolitan City of Florence with MUS.E present to the public the program of proposals dedicated to families with children, to discover the beauties that the city of Florence contains and stroll peacefully in the rooms of our museums.
Draw to see
For families with children aged 6 to 10
Every Friday and every Sunday at 5.00 pm
Pencil in hand for the little participants who will take the gaze of the great artist Henry Moore to observe and draw the world around them. The great artist Henry Moore, one of the greatest sculptors of the twentieth century, had a great passion for drawing, a real instrument of exploratory investigation “to see more intensely”. The works on display will allow children to grasp his mastery and sensitivity in rendering not only the three-dimensionality of the material, but also the depth and energy inherent in reality, to then try his hand at drawing live… around the elephant skull so dear to the artist.
Flight instructions Special appointment with the artist Chiara Gambirasio
For families with children aged 6 to 10
Saturday 5 June at 3.00 pm and 4.30 pm
Chiara Gambirasio’s works are gentle poems, which open to the beholder as small living creatures, mild and light: from her work “everything comes out with wings”. The activity, which will be conducted by the artist herself, will allow to explore the potential of shapes – with particular attention to triangles – and of colors, capable of vibrating in / of the void (hence the word Kenoscromìa, coined by herself ), to give life to real worlds… and take flight.
