The Construction of Casa Gennari Borders
The next East Midlands Branch meeting will be held on 28 November starting 7:30pm at the Valiani Support Group Unit in Lincoln. The subject is 'The Construction of Casa Gennari Borders' by Mal Reynolds GCF Adv.
Casa Gennari borders originate from the studio of the Italian Grand master Guercino (1591-1660); there are around nine different borders surrounding a number of Guercino's sketches all of which have been researched and reproduced using a Valiani CMC. The talk provides an interesting insight into Guercino's work and will describe how the borders were designed and modified for use with a CMC. The talk is designed to be proactive with a demonstration of one or more of the panels being produced using the Valiani MatStylus Deluxe. Examples of these borders can be found by visiting www.harlequin-frames.co.uk under the side heading of Casa Gennari.
This lecture was first given at 'The Collection' Lincoln in July and was the subject of a Valiani Master Class at the Moscow International Framers Forum in Sep.
Those wishing to attend should reserve a place by emailing mal@harlequin-frames.co.uk spaces are limited..
