Kunstideenwerkstatt
Art Ideas WorkshopPast event
Description
The Kunstideenwerkstatt (art ideas workshop) is a co-creation body open to all children outside of school and kindergarten. Here, children help shape the KinderKunstLabor with their wishes, concerns, themes, and ideas. In addition to the Children’s Advisory Board, the Kunstideenwerkstatt is a central body for co-creating the KinderKunstLabor. It focuses on the following questions: How do artists work? How is an exhibition created? What does art have to do with democracy? What is a lab and what can happen there? How does a museum communicate with its visitors?
Children contribute their views and perspectives and work with the KinderKunstLabor team on questions related to museum operations and current and planned exhibitions. Together we will test out and expand on educational formats, discuss the positioning of artworks, and develop printed materials and poster designs.
This time:
In this Kunstideenwerkstatt, we are devoting ourselves to La Matière, a workshop idea based on Josef Albers. Albers explored material properties and contrasts in order to challenge our perception:
What is smooth, what is rough? When does something appear solid or fragile? How do colours and structures influence our impressions?
We collect, arrange and compose found objects into a “tableau”, a painting and experiment with surfaces, shapes and contrasts. What new ideas will emerge? Can this format be incorporated into the art education programme of the KinderKunstLabor?
Your perspectives, ideas and impulses are needed - let's try out, reflect and think ahead together!
