During the first days of Hungarian Days in Cluj-Napoca, the Annie Klaus Gallery opened its doors to a hands-on journey into the world of traditional printmaking and seal carving. The workshops were led by Sárosi Mátyás Zsolt and Ivácson András Áron, who are truly passionate about keeping these aspects of art-making alive among younger generations.
Throughout the exhibition period, the Linocut & Clay Seal Carving Workshop was available for visitors to explore and engage with, offering guests the chance to discover and experiment with two traditional techniques and experience the simple yet fascinating processes behind creating handmade stamps and prints.
From carving their own designs into linoleum and clay to discovering how a single carved image can be transformed into a unique print, participants were invited to slow down, get creative, and connect with these enduring forms of craftsmanship.
As always, the workshop brought together enthusiastic and curious individuals, creating an inspiring and welcoming atmosphere throughout the exhibition. It was a joyful experience filled with creativity, discovery, and the pleasure of making something by hand — bringing traditional techniques into a contemporary, welcoming space at the Annie Klaus Gallery.
