Tutorials and technical advice:
The studios are open throughout the day from 9'00 to 19'30, Monday to Friday. The office is open every day between 9'30 and 18'00, and we are happy to help the artists of the Summer studios with technical issues, within our capacities.
In essence, the Summer Studios is not an art-course, and artists come to work at Metáfora with specific objectives and independent goals. However, if an artist on the summer studio needs more than a simple run-trough of the available techical facilities, a tutorial can be arranged upon request. For this pupose we have a list of tutors to contact, should any of the artists need specific help in technical aspects or simply want to talk to someone abut his/her work. We can also arrange for small courses (4-6 hours) of specific techniques is a group of students come together around this idea.
