2nd International Symposium of Overglaze-Underglaze Paintings 2011

by | Jan 13, 2011 | Uncategorized

20 June-1 July 2011 as Anadolu University Faculty of Fine Arts Ceramics Department, Anadolu
University, Eskisehir-TURKEY.

The theme of the symposium is to make ceramic artworks by applying overglaze-underglaze paints on particular forms which will reflect the artists’ unique style and techniques. While making overglaze- underglaze paintings, subject and technique will be decided by the artists.
Intention of the symposium is to make the ceramic artists and lecturers of different cultures come together, both from Turkey and from abroad. We believe this will create an ambiance that enables communication by sharing experiences, having the opportunity to discuss techniques and ideas. We hope that artists will get to know each other better and we desire for participants to enjoy international cultural exchange.
