▶ BOOK FOR THE MASTERCOURSE

An opportunity to work with one of Hungary's leading porcelain artists. Sandor Dobany models his originals in plaster, designs and makes multi part molds and casts his unique works in high quality porcelain.

During the course participants will learn:

Design techniques.
Multi-part mouldmaking.

Participants will have the opportunity to make their own moulds with guidance and tuition from this master, learning techniques and processes that make the European porcelain tradition the pinnacle of the porcelain arts.

A mesterkurzuson lehetőség nyílik Magyarország egyik vezető porcelánművészével való együttműködésre. Dobány Sándor eredeti alkotásait gipszből modellezi, többrészes öntőformákat készít, majd végső alkotásait kiváló minőségű porcelánból önti ki.

A tanfolyam során a résztvevők megtanulják a különböző tervezési technikákat és a többrészes formakészítést.

A résztvevőknek lehetőségük lesz saját öntőformákat készíteni Dobány Sándor keramikusmester útmutatásával, miközben lehetőségük lesz olyan technikai sajátosságok elsajátítására, amelyek az európai porcelánkészítő hagyományokat e művészeti ág csúcsára emelik.


Hungary has always been at the forefront of porcelain design, coming from the strong porcelain factories of Herend and Zsolnay (where Dobany has been a designer). Now an independent artist, Dobany creates his own unique works ranging from tea and coffee sets, dinner services, individual decorative pieces and architectural details.

The workshop language will be Hungarian and English.

Magyarország mindig is élen járt a porcelántervezésben, a világhírű Herendi és Zsolnay (ahol Dobány is tervező volt) porcelángyárak nyomán. Ma már független művészként Dobány saját, egyedi munkáit készíti a teás- és kávéskészletektől kezdve, az étkészleteken át az egyedi dísztárgyakig és építészeti részletekig.

A workshop nyelve magyar és angol.
