OPEN ART WORKSHOP

The SCHIRN KUNSTHALLE offers a large, OPEN ART WORKSHOP featuring a broad selection of art materials. Adults, children ages 4 and up, young people, students, and seniors meet, individually or in groups, in an inspiring atmosphere and work alongside and with each other on their own artworks.


Spurred by the exhibition on view and by the abundance of—sometimes unusual—art materials provided, ways of expressing inner worlds, desires, and visions are explored. These are given artistic form via painting in large formats, carving wood, sculpting with clay, coiling with string and wire, drawing with hard and soft pencils, on heavy or lightweight paper, or working with a variety of everyday materials and found objects.


Art teachers provide support and introduce the various techniques. Workshops are accessible to people with disabilities and to children and young people with special needs.


WHEN Every second and fourth Sunday of the month, 12–2 PM and 3–6 PM, and every Wednesday, 3–6 PM
NO REGISTRATION 8 €, reduced 6 €, includes admission to the exhibition

World Transformers. The Art of the Outsiders

Ranging from the nineteenth century to the present day, the catalogue arrestingly presents the individual worlds of the artists: one is plunged into the romantic dream worlds of Aloïse, into the precise mathematical utopias of George Widener, or into the Ewigkeitenendeland (End-of-Eternities Land) of August Walla. The works direct our gaze toward the more opaque paths of thought and occasion us to fundamentally question the structures of certainty in our day-to-day lives.
