Description
OFF LETTERS AND SECRET MARKS
Together we explore Museum Brandhorst and draw some lettering. We look for shapes in the museum building and in the artworks on display, try out the artists’ working methods and draw letters and symbols. We always add something of our own, for example a mood. Very different characters will emerge that are linked to both the museum and its visitors, resulting in the creation of a new typeface together.
The workshop will take place in the ticket-free area of the Factory space (lower level) and is run by Carla Nagel. She is a graphic designer and artist. She has worked for many years for museums and book publishers as well as in the field of science communication. She has designed several art expeditions for children and the ActioncARTs for Museum Brandhorst. She also carries out freelance projects.
THE OPEN FACTORY
Every Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m., the intergenerational drop-in format “Open Factory” provides the right setting to get creative with the whole family or with friends. Changing techniques and themes entice you to take part in varied artistic projects, and to stroll through the exhibitions. Whether drawing, painting, using different printing techniques or dancing, whether analog, digital or hybrid—we will take you into the world of colors and shapes and appeal to your imagination and creative spirit.
