Description
Wood, stone, paper, fabric—all things we know well. But can they also become art? The artists of Arte Povera wanted to show that art is everywhere! Even in things that are old, used, or inconspicuous. In this workshop, you will collect simple things yourself. You will combine them, shape them, glue them, or tie them together. In doing so, you will discover how much expressive power lies in simplicity and how found objects can suddenly take on new meaning. The result is your own work of art made from everyday materials.
The workshop will be held in the ticket-free area of the Factory space (lower level) and is run by the art historian and long-time art educator Urte Ehlers.
