To accompany the exhibition “Tête-à-Tête. Köpfe aus der Kunstsammlung der Berliner Volksbank”, the Werkstatt für Kreative will teach the technique of portraits on handmade paper in age-differentiated workshops from January to the end of June 2020.
During a visit to the exhibition in the Kunstforum der Berliner Volksbank, children and young people will have the opportunity to recognise the rich diversity of two- and three-dimensional forms of representation of portraits by artists such as Luciano Castelli, Angela Hampel, Gerd Sonntag and Ulla Walter and will receive initial inspiration for the subsequent workshop.
In the practical part, the children and young people then create their own papers from cotton pulp in the rooms of the “Werkstatt für Kreative” under the expert guidance of art educators. The slightly irregular, lively structure of the resulting background and the contrasting colours of the pulp enable expressive, individual works.
If the quota is exhausted, it is possible to book an additional workshop for a fee.
