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.
ABOUT THE SILVER FACTORY
Every second Thursday evening from 5.30 to 7.30 p.m., the free drop-in format “Silver Factory” provides the right setting for teenagers and adults to get creative. Inspired by Andy Warhol’s famous studio, the Silver Factory, various different techniques and themes entice us to take part in varied artistic endeavors across all media. Whether drawing, painting, using different printing techniques or dancing, whether analog, digital or hybrid, come by and be transported into the world of colors and shapes in a relaxed atmosphere.
