SUMMARY:Intermediate - Creating Metal Art in a Functional form with Anton Yakushev August 23 & 24th
DESCRIPTION:Class description:\nSculptural forms that can be adapted to functional works. Students will be able to focus on traditional and nontraditional methods and techniques of joinery and design. We will practice how ancient forging craft of blacksmithing can make a contemporary modern piece of functional art. This is a 2 day class.\nSkills and techniques to be covered/taught: \nHand forging a sculptural piece in the form of an human/fantasy\, etc. Tricks of forging about 15 individual pieces\, then seeing how they all join together to make a full sculptural piece.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT the Instructor:  \nAnton Yakushev\, is a sculptor and artist blacksmith who creates one-of-a-kind hand forged in fire sculptures.  Every artwork consists of more than 50 details each forged separately and has a special and unique meaning. My artistic device is experiment and improvisation\, in fact\, I do not use\none-size-fits-all techniques. The key message of his artwork is humanism\, love\, and compassion for humanity. Anton realized he was destined to turn ideas into metal when at the age of 16 he started working as a blacksmith. Now an award-winning sculptor\, his artworks have been exhibited nationally\, as well as in the United Kingdom\, Italy\, Spain\, and the United States. He is a nationally and internationally distinguished artist\, whose works\nare in permanent collections all around the world\, including National Museums and Parks in the USA. He loves to create independent and isolated worlds for his heroes which are dreams\, cloudland cities\, and otherworld realities. To see more of his work\, go to his website .\nWhat to wear/safety equipment : \n-Cotton pants and long sleeved shirt (synthetics are potentially flammable). \n-Leather boots (NO open toed sandals/shoes-tennis shoes are not recommended for safety).
