Thursday March 1 and Thursday April 12 LENTEN TRANSFORMATIONS Workshops for those wanting to be creative -- and wanting to help others be creative -- with the spiritual quest through Lent. Teodoro and Esther Dragonieri are world-renowned artists who connect the creative process with Christian spirituality using masks to explore deep questions such as those posed at Lent. (1) Mystery of the Mask [March 1] The use of masks has always been a spiritual act. Traditionally, for instance, Carnival ran from immediately following Christmas to its climax just before Ash Wednesday, on the threshold to Lent. In this workshop you will be introduced to the historical and theological significance of masks. While exploring the spirit of Carnival you will also create your own mask. Cost: $85. [$90. after Feb. 8] (2) Power of the Mask [April 12] Masks are experiencing a revival in western civilization because no other inanimate object is so universally successful in riveting the attention, stimulating the imagination and arousing deep emotions. Bring your Lenten time to a close and prepare for Easter by exploring the transformational power of playing with Commedia dell'Arte and Neutral Masks. Commedia dell'Arte was a popular form of improvised street theatre which originated in Italy in the 16th century and subsequently influenced Shakespeare, Moliere and others. Explore your imagination with a series of exercises, games, meditations and discussions. (Comfortable clothing is recommended.)

By DAVID COSTELLO Noel Camp leans into another stroke of his #7 fishtail chisel, shaving away penny-sized flakes from the basswood mask like ice cream under a warm spoon. Working with the grain, the high school sophomore removes wood chips from around the left eye, its socket still gazing off in roughhewn blindness. A chisel-pocked forehead hides details yet to be carved. Defining each facial feature will require numerous passes of the chisel, hours of sanding and a coat or two of complexion-revealing stain.

( go see some very interesting photos ) "Masken leben in einer Welt voll Magie und Phantasie. Wer seinem K?rper eine Maske leiht, erschafft aus sich ein neues Wesen fremd und altvertraut, liebenswert und skurril, naiv, gewaltig, zart, ... Masken die wir selbst bauen, demaskieren. Innere Gesichter, Gesichter hinter dem Alltagsgesicht entstehen unter unseren H?nden. Der K?rperwahrnehmungssinn, die F?higkeit, mir meines K?rpers im Raum bewu?t zu werden lebt auf, der K?rper wird zum Ausdrucksmittel. Das Tragen einer Maske macht so einen Sprung zwischen Welten m?glich, verzaubert mich selbst und das Publikum."

Usually voice and text are included. 10 weeks. Once a week.
