Description
OF LETTERS AND SECRET MARKS
Together we will explore Museum Brandhorst and create our own typeface! We will look at the objects in the museum and those contained in the artworks. We will use them to draw letters and symbols that we like. Once we are attuned to our surroundings, our feelings are suddenly aroused: an artwork excites us, and this is reflected in our drawings. In this way, we will create special symbols and letters that suit the museum and its visitors, thus producing 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 education. She has designed several “art expeditions” for children and the “ActioncARTs” for Museum Brandhorst. She also realizes freelance projects.
