Dal disegno vero e proprio, passando per il disegno e la realizzazione, si arriva al burattino finale. Durante questi sette giorni ti aspettano tante belle esperienze e nuove persone, e alla fine del corso porterai a casa il tuo burattino intagliato a mano.
Questa settimana, sotto la supervisione di Martin, imparerai come scolpire, dipingere, assemblare e controllare un burattino secondo il tuo progetto. Il workshop si svolge nello studio di Martin vicino al Castello di Praga.
Iniziamo ogni mattina alle 9:00 e finiamo alle 18:00. Abbiamo una pausa pranzo durante il giorno.
Per i primi tre giorni scolpirai le singole parti di cui è composto il burattino. Il quarto giorno è destinato alla finitura della superficie e alla preparazione per la verniciatura, o il primo strato di pittura. Il quinto giorno, finisci il dipinto e possibilmente dipingi il burattino. Per i prossimi due giorni imparerai come assemblare il burattino e collegarlo correttamente. Se hai tempo, imparerai anche suggerimenti e trucchi su come giocare al massimo con il tuo burattino.
Se l'alloggio a Praga è un problema per te, puoi essere ospite a casa con uno dei membri del nostro team.
Petr: So what is so amazing about carving a figurine?
Martin: Hard to describe... I think it is first about feeling the wood itself. Wood has its own aroma, weight, grain. And then about the response, you get from the wood.
Petr: Response?
Martin: Yes. Once you learn how to hand carve you feel that wood gives you possibilities of where and how deep you can go with a chisel. That’s why no figurine is the same.
Petr: You are talking about that old truth which all sculptors have repeated through the ages, that there is shape already hidden inside and the sculptor is just taking it out of the mass. Right?
Martin: I mean it is not magic or something like that. Wood has simply some structure inside which gives you ways of how you can work with it. It's nice to let yourself improvise and change your ideas as they develop in your creation during the process of carving.
Petr: Ok. And what else is so nice about carving for you?
Martin: Besides the smell which I like a lot is the fact that something is forming in your hands. You think about it and it gives you new and fresh impulses to look at it again and again.
Petr: I know what you are talking about. I personally love the sound of wood while carving. Anyway, thank you for the quick interview.
Absolutely wonderful, better than expected.. a very talented puppet creator. Very pleased
Of course, the quality was good, and the packaging was careful. Pinocio also has a very cute face. It was the best!
This is fun because it can move like a human. I will practice so that I can control it better! I made a very good purchase. As expected, it's an authentic mionette!
Zlatna Kostova’s review: If you think you've already seen all the magic Prague has to offer, visit Czech Marionettes. It may well become the highlight of your trip. Walking into this beautiful workshop and gallery felt like stepping into another world – a world where every puppet has a personality, a history, and a soul. There are antique marionettes waiting to be lovingly restored, newly carved figures taking shape from blocks of linden wood, theatrical puppets, film puppets, one-of-a-kind collector's pieces, custom commissions, and charming souvenirs. Everywhere you look, you can feel that this is not simply a shop but a living workshop where Czech puppetry continues to flourish. Even before my visit, I knew that Czech puppetry is one of the country's great cultural traditions, recognized by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. After spending time here, I understood why. This is not merely craftsmanship - it is an art form passed down through generations with extraordinary dedication and love. Lucie Robinson, the wonderful manager of Czech Marionettes, welcomed my friend Tanya and me with warmth and genuine enthusiasm. She shared how she herself fell in love with puppetry after making her very first marionette in the workshop of the internationally renowned master Martin Růžička. Through her stories - and through a fascinating video from Růžička's studio - we caught a glimpse of the artistry and passion behind his remarkable creations. Daniel then took us "behind the scenes", showing us sketches, designs, carving tools, unfinished puppets, and restoration projects. As he demonstrated the marionettes, he handled them as if they were living companions rather than wooden figures. His affection for them was impossible to miss and wonderfully contagious. Around us, the workshop was alive with creativity. One artist was carefully repairing the broom of an evil witch, while another was delicately painting the faces of the Princess and her Prince from "The Nutcracker" and refreshing their costumes. Watching these characters slowly come to life was absolutely mesmerizing. Leaving Czech Marionettes was surprisingly difficult. It reminded me of the feeling I had the first time I entered the newly opened "The Moon-lit Room" puppet theatre in Sofia - you simply don't want the enchantment to end. If you are visiting Prague, don't miss this extraordinary place. Whether you are a collector, a theatre lover, an artist, or simply someone who appreciates beautiful craftsmanship, Czech Marionettes offers an unforgettable experience. I already know that every time I return to Prague, this will be one of my first stops.
I missed the opportunity to purchase a marionette when I was in Prague so I bought this one. It’s so well made. I’m excited to show my grandkids! Rozkošný!
