Description
As soon as we talk about computers and machines, it’s not long before we start to mention processes and algorithms. But what do we mean by this and what do they do? If you’ve ever cooked something from a cookbook with an adult, or built a model according to instructions, then you have already executed an algorithm yourself—namely the regulated sequence of certain actions. Together we will look at whether art can also be created according to algorithms. Is it still art then? And who actually made these rules?
The workshop will be run by our colleague and research assistant Janina Horn. The number of participants is limited. If you wish to reserve a place for your child, 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 Kids’ Factory is a program for children aged between 6 and 12, inviting them to become creative themselves, as the mood takes them. It is possible to join at any time. Different techniques and themes inspire varied artistic pursuits: Whether drawing, painting, working with different printing techniques, dancing; whether analog, digital or hybrid—we will whisk you away to the world of colors and shapes, and appeal to your imagination and creative spirit.
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 generously supported by PIN. Freunde der Pinakothek der Moderne e.V.
