"The Little Melting Pot"
The Museum of Modern Art invites you to the Bródno Sculpture Park for discussion and sculptural workshop with a Hungarian artist, Bence Gyorgy Palinkas.
Come and tell us your origin myth and make a tiny sculpture (no expertise needed!). At the workshop, we will ask you to tell us what kinds of national origin myths you knew and where from, and together we will try to reinterpret, actualize or criticize these myths. During the chat, you can sculpt your protagonist out of wax. And later on, we will cast it out of metal, with the same technique as the public statues are made.
Together we will make a pluralist monument. The sculptures will be traveling around in the region with a theater project.
Rape of Europe and other origin myths Lecture performance with metal casting
In the myth of Rape of Europe, the titan Europa was abducted by Zeus in the form of a bull. The topos – lack of agency when one meets with greater power – appears in many cases. While we will be in a journey in this metaphorical bull back, we can follow through the casting of the figures from "The Little Melting Pot" workshop.
This project is commissioned by OFF-Biennale Budapest 2020.
