CREATIVE MONOTYPE AND CALCOGRAPHY FOR CERAMICS | Rachèle Rivière
15-16-17 October 2021
This course offers an audience, already in possession of ceramic knowledge, to bring a creative graphic dimension to its pieces. Understanding the direct and indirect printing process will be the main objective. During these 3 days the techniques tackled will be the Monotypes and monochromatic decorations with coloured engobes and metal oxides, Reliefs and Chalcographic prints through linoleum and rhodoids, and the Transfer of photographs with arabic glue.
For each of the techniques discussed, there will be a demonstration accompanied by a theoretical chapter. At the end of this course, everyone will be able to bring their own graphic creativity to the clay uses in their studio, with inexpensive tools using little space. A theoretical print support with recipes and bibliography will be given to each participant.

Per chi ama i modi naturali e vede nella ceramica le varietà espressive che questi possono dare. Porterete tre forme essiccate (non cotte) di misura massima singola cm 20 (altezza) x 10 x 10 a spessore max mm7 realizzate in argille bianche da Raku. Le superfici delle forme potranno essere levigate a pressione ma non ingobbiate. Faremo esperienza di applicazione di argille su argille, di smalti in monocottura e di fiammature con cottura a legna che con la sua casualità ci mostrerà giochi infiniti di trasparenze, neri e lustri.
Programma: applicazione sulle vostre forme secche di ingobbi del genere Terra Sigillata, sali metallici, vernici e smalti – cottura notturna a biscotto – allestimento del fuoco e inserimento delle forme – cottura a legna – estrazione delle forme a mezza e fine cottura – lezioni di tecnologia a domanda.
Le forme saranno realizzate seguendo le indicazioni del docente, saranno cotte e consegnate entro i tempi del corso stesso. Il corso di 14 ore inizia alle ore 9.00 del sabato e termina alle ore 16.00 della domenica. Docente: Maestro Giovanni CimattiFull immersion in color

Una delle premesse in campo ceramico, fondamento della didattica e della tecnologia stabilisce che non vi devono essere bolle di aria negli impasti ceramici ma...
E' anche vero che la presenza di bolle e la stessa porosità delle argille favorisce l'isolamento termico, l'essiccazione e la leggerezza. Con impasti a struttura spugnosa si ottengono forme facilmente lavorabili a secco/crudo per mezzo del taglio, incisione o abrasione, una lavorabilità a biscotto simile a quella dell'osso di seppia, durezza inaspettata dopo la cottura finale e il peso vicino a quello dei poliuretani espansi.
Da questa scelta parte la possibilità di creare forme legate in particolare al campo della scultura dove i problemi dello svuotamento delle forme viene superato velocizzando le cotture. Infine e in relazione alla dimensione delle microbolle inserite sarà possibile anche l'applicazione di patine, ingobbi e rivestimenti anche vetrosi.
Programma: metodi di realizzazione di schiume e la loro introduzione nelle argille - colatura della schiuma argillosa - essiccamento - scultura a secco crudo per taglio/incisione - cottura ad alta temperatura in forno elettrico - sfornata - applicazione di rivestimento tipo smalto oro - cottura a media temperatura - lezioni di tecnologia ceramica. Per motivi di tempo e aumentare l'esperienza sulla tecnica saranno forniti ai partecipanti anche alcuni blocchetti di argilla porosa già essiccati.
Il corso di 14 ore dura dalle ore 9.00 alle ore 17:00 del sabato e dalle ore 9:00 alle ore 16.00 della domenica. Docente: Maestro Giovanni Cimatti Scarica il modulo di iscrizione in formato pdf Scarica il volantino in formato pdfTranslucent porcelain

Transparency is one of the most important qualities of porcelain and usually, requires a prolonged, precise and very accurate processing to obtain a fine beauty piece highlighted by the translucenty. This course allows you to develop two simple and immediate techniques that will facilitate and strengthen creativity to develop many projects without the use of large resources and experience in the field of porcelain techniques. We will use slip porcelain without the use of molds and with a single-firing.
PROGRAM: Totally practical lessons, preparation of the material and basic forms. Use of slip porcelain and construction with two totally different techniques. Surface treatment, controlled drying and finishing. Methods to avoid deformation and breakage during the process and all the special features of the specific firing for this technique. Recover broken complex variations of the techniques and the surface with the use of color introduced into the slip the porcelain. Production of pieces to project in small series for use or decoration. pieces or cracks with specific recipe. Finally, more co.
