ATELIER FOR BYZANTINE PAINTING
 
Aim of the Atelier: a return to the old authentic traditions of the Byzantine painting, especially to the Comnenian, post-Comnenian and the Palaeologan, both on the level of materials, techniques and aesthetic principles. The eventual aim is to train icon and mural painters and then to enable them to produce work in their own personal style, but within traditional parameters. Training programs in icon painting will be organised to that effect.
