Karel Řepa from the Faculty of Education led a painting workshop in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

"Exploring the world of still life" was the title of a four-day painting workshop organized by the head of the Art Education Department of the Faculty of Education of the University of South Bohemia, Dr. Karel Řepa, for the Arts and Skills Institute at the L' Art Pur Foundation gallery in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from 25 January to 28 January 2026.

Participants were introduced to the subject of still life in the context of the development of art culture - from the earliest times, through the Baroque "golden age" of the genre, to its modern and contemporary adaptations. After theoretical grounding and an introductory methodology for working with acrylic painting, participants focused on the actual painting of compositions inspired by the old masters and famous artists of the 19th and 20th centuries.

The workshop was organized in close cooperation with the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Riyadh.
