Meet Laura
My name is Laura – I took the practitioner training course in 2015 and became a “Servant” – name used by Arno Stern for the practitioner to outline his role is not that of a teacher, but that of an ‘aide’ more than anything.
Welcome to Painting Room Basel!
“The art of painting belongs to the artists, the painting play belongs to all the others.” – Arno Stern, Paris
In 2016 we created the Painting Room for the Basel community, based on the studies and observations of the educational researcher Arno Stern, inventor of Closlieu and Formulation. Since then we enable participants, kids and adults, to freely express and to re-create themselves in a safe place.
“Through the “Painting Play” we support children and adults to grow and further develop their individuality. This happens organically as participants in the “Painting Play” start accessing their inner resources, at their own pace. We make this possible by offering a place free of expectations, judgement and competition, a place where you can freely and spontaneously express yourself and give freedom to your imagination and creativity.” – Laura, Basel (Find out more)
We speak 🇬🇧English, 🇩🇪German, 🇫🇷French, 🇮🇹Italian, 🇪🇸Spanish, 🇷🇴Romanian and.. 🇯🇵Japanese!
Who we are and what we do?
Arno Stern
It is more than 60 years ago that Arno started his atelier in Paris, coining the term Closlieu. Through the years, he has witnessed that when children paint freely, they produce identical figures and signs everywhere in the world…
ClosLieu
A space particularly designed for the painting play, not resembling the traditional painting studio. For this reason it offers the perfect environment to develop new habits, genuine expressions of one’s self.
Team events
In addition to painting sessions for children and parents, we also organize team building, workshops or team events for companies, teams or classes of students.
Birthday parties
Join us with your friends, your colleagues or your classmates for a birthday party full of fun, creativity and color. Each participant can paint their own painting or they can create together a large painting.
