Workshops (AT) Wien – 18.06.11 bis 19.06.11

2 Day Mask workshop with Markus Kupferblum (A) in collaboration with Dekolta’s Handwerk

Masks exaggerate the facial expression and force the body and the mind to very precise way to move and to think. The work with the mask will help us to develop human characters, - even if performed without masks at the end.

Workshop

On the first day we will use Neutral masks to develop the phantasy and imagination as well as the sense of rhythm of our body and learn how to focus our expression. A basic training with Neutral Masks will help us to increase our body expression and physical presence on stage.

On the second day we will have the opportunity to get to know the Topeng Masks from Bali, so called Clown Masks, whose very specific expression is a source of inspiration for every actor. The strong emotions of these masks help the actor to develop gestures and sounds, he would never dream of, and which increase his expressive spectrum. In small scenes we will develop grotesque and funny situations and get used to be led by a mask.
