Description
HARING-HAPPENING
In this workshop, we will look at Keith Haring’s paintings. We exchange ideas about what we see. Then we will quickly draw ourselves with colored pencils and felt-tip pens, just as he did. We explore what the symbols in his pictures could mean: crawling babies, Mickey Mouse, dancing dogs. Then we make our own signs with colorful cardboard boxes and acrylic markers. We put these together to create a great background for a creative photo shoot. We will dress up in different clothes and have photos taken, inspired by Keith’s characters and his time. At the end, we’ll talk about what we did and how we used the different techniques and poses. The workshop will not only show you Keith’s style, but you can also try out your own ideas in a playful and creative way.
The workshop will take place in the ticket-free area of the Factory space (lower level) and is run by artist Rupert Jörg.
