Guided tour through the exhibition followed by a workshop. Artistic strategies are uncovered, deciphered and become a means of expression for one's personal point of view in one's own aesthetic-practical examination.

Horizontal, vertical and diagonal layering and overlapping of colored pieces of transparent paper on white paper enable elegant and lightweight image compositions, reminiscent of Feininger's typical painting style with constructions of prismatic transparent surfaces.

Many of Lyonel Feininger's works are fine line constructions that sometimes stand out more, sometimes less, from the background. This applies to some of his prints, watercolors and drawings of cityscapes, or the Ghosties (small ghostly figures). Mood-evoking sheets will be created through a special technique of printing and frottage.

In cooperation with students of the Justus-Liebig-University Gießen.
Pupils will be introduced to the exhibition at selected stations by art education students from the Justus Liebig University of Giessen, and engage with the art using activating methods. The duration of each school class's visit is approximately 60 minutes.
