Description

Inspired by National Portrait Gallery's BP Portrait Award and the theme of family in several winning entries, Art Macabre present a clan of curious characters to capture in your own portraits. A macabre circus family pose together in a series of tableaux. This salon will explore the power of composition, costume and mementoes to tell stories and reveal secrets about the people portrayed.

Fresh from their appearance at Standon Calling festival, we introduce the 'Circus of Skeletons' and the Suitcase Menagerie, a family of dejected and rejected characters considered too freakish even for the sideshow. Capture them as they come out of the shadows to take centre stage in your drawings once again.

Art Macabre Drawing Salons take over Cass Art, London’s largest art store for a series of after hours, playful and relaxed, alternative life drawing events. Grab an artistic weapon of choice and come and make some killer marks as each salon explores a different deadly theme through the nude human form, costume, props and multi–media. www.deathdrawing.com

Doors 7.30pm Salon 8pm-10pm. Limited capacity, tickets must be booked in advance. Materials provided, age 18+
