Which art forms can we use to express our ideas? How can we define freedom? In this workshop, we talk about children’s rights and freedom, and exchange our opinions on these concepts. We first listen to the songs “Freedom” and “Children’s Rights” produced by the music group Şubadap Çocuk. Then, with inspiration from various paintings, posters and drawings which are part of the exhibition Socialist Realism in Albanian Art, notably the piece “International Children’s Day, 1 June, 1982”, we create a slogan and design a poster that aims to visualize our own ideas about freedom.

Over the years of 1864 through 1876, Stanisław Chlebowski served Sultan Abdülaziz in Istanbul as his court painter. As it was, Abdülaziz disposed of considerable artistic talents of his own, and he actively involved himself in Chlebowski’s creative process, suggesting ideas for compositions –such as ballistic pieces praising the victories of Turkish arms.
Józef Brandt harboured a fascination for the history of 17th century Poland, and his favourite themes included ballistic scenes and genre scenes before and after the battle proper –all and sundry marches, returns, supply trains, billets and encampments, patrols, and similar motifs illustrating the drudgery of warfare outside of its culminating moments.
