Description
We are used to the fact that technology must be functional and should work. Errors are perceived as annoying and disturbing. And yet precisely here is an intrinsic aesthetic quality that should be discovered and appreciated. Glitches – i.e. faults in a system or deviations from the original – can be transformed from a disruptive element into an object of art. Together we will try to test technologies to the limits of their resilience, to bring about glitches, and to empower and emancipate ourselves.
The workshop will be run by Dr. Beat Rossmy. The number of participants is limited. If you wish to reserve a place, please register at buchung@pinakothek.de. Possible workshop languages: German, English.
Art education program accompanying the special exhibition „Future Bodies from a Recent Past"
The open drop-in format “Silver Factory” is designed for adults and young people and provides the appropriate framework to get creative yourself as the mood takes you. Different techniques and themes inspire varied artistic pursuits: Whether drawing, painting, working with different printing techniques, dancing; whether analog, digital or hybrid… drop by and let yourself be carried away into the world of colors and shapes in a relaxed atmosphere.
The art education program accompanying the special exhibition “Future Bodies from a Recent Past” was developed as part of “dive in. Programme for Digital Interactions” of the Kulturstiftung des Bundes (German Federal Cultural Foundation) with funding by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media (BKM) through the NEUSTART KULTUR programme.
The program was also also generously supported by PIN. Freunde der Pinakothek der Moderne e.V.
