Artists' Nights at Body Worlds 4
Conceived as the ultimate Life Drawing class, the sessions will feature male and female nude models striking poses similar to the BODY WORLDS 4 Plastinates. Facilitated by a professional tutor, attendees will have the unparalleled opportunity to celebrate and sketch the human form while taking their visual cues from both an internal and external anatomical perspective.
Commenting on the Artists' Nights, Tony Hill, Acting Director MOSI said: 'Figure drawing has enjoyed a Renaissance of sorts in recent years, and we have been inundated with requests from visitors to draw and sketch the Plastinates.
Introducing the live nude model element will serve to enhance participants' anatomical knowledge, drawing skills and level of creativity. With just five weeks to go until the exhibition closes on 17th August this is the best opportunity that visitors will get to sketch the exhibits at close range.'
Anne Murtagh, joint North West regional representative for the Institute of Medical Illustrators, added 'This is a unique opportunity to visit the BODY WORLDS exhibition and practise sketching with full tutor support at a time when the space is closed to the general public'.
The Artists' Nights will be held on July 22nd and 29th, from 5.30 PM until 8.30 PM, when the exhibition is closed to the general public. Attendees must be 18 years or over. £20 admission applies which includes tutored life drawing and refreshments.
Tickets can be reserved in advance through www.mosi.org.uk or by calling 0871 231 0847. Limited places available for walk-ups on the nights who will be accommodated on a first come, first served basis.
