“Drawing Sebastian”: life drawing event with Art Model Collective, taking place during Arrows of Desire exhibition which celebrates the image of Saint Sebastian in contemporary arts.
About
During ‘Arrow of Desire’, the art show celebrating the agony and ecstasy of Saint Sebastian at the iconic underground venue the Horse Hospital, Art Model Collective will hold a very exclusive life drawing session.
Our model will be a dancer, actor and professional model Giuseppe Claudio Insalaco, who's created a staggeringly gorgeous St Sebastian incarnate for Art Model Collective once before.
Claudio will be holding a series of expressive nude poses inspired by classical sculptures of this saint - a beautiful youth tied to the post and writhing as he is shot with arrows. The space of Horse Hospital, with its columns and dramatic lighting, will lend itself perfectly to bring the spirit of Sebastian to life with this excellent model.
For the love of Saint Sebastian, what an exciting, sensuous and beautiful story to bring to life!
