Serena Ferrario - Collage - Image and space

€560.00
12 free spaces
Sun 8/3/25 - 8/16/25
Obere Altstadt Neuburg
Fine Arts
My approach consists of drawings, pictures, photos, video recordings and own texts which are either unfinished or do not have an effect on the proper place. We breathe new life into them developing them further. Fears of contacts and blockades disappear by extending the medium. Perhaps a new process or form is needed in order to keep on working on the original ones. The new medium probably helps to realize that you were too restricted and that there are other forms which are more fun or which suit you better. What could you do with your own drawings or the many photos lying in a box or waiting on your hard disk? Perhaps there will be a new composition and connection with other materials, memories and images. I will offer a beamer and a camera so that we are able to experiment with projections, sound and light. Furthermore, I will provide a scanner and a printer (black and white).

Miriam Wahl - Painting

€300.00
No free place
Sun 8/3/25 - 8/9/25
Obere Altstadt Neuburg
Fine Arts
Painting is as complex as life and the people who, for mysterious reasons, keep reaching for paint and brushes. What am I looking for with and in painting? This workshop offers space and time to continue on your own artistic path and to work on old and new motifs, methods, questions and insights with support. The focus is on individual painting projects, which are further developed and supported in individual and group discussions. There will be no recipes or set techniques, but instead numerous exercises and suggestions to immerse yourself in the diverse world of painting and to train your gaze, sensitivity, sense of color and space in a playful, exploratory way and to get ideas for your own work. For example, we will become aware of the possibilities of artistic principles such as series, individual works or groups of works or various approaches to image creation, experiment with painting surfaces, collections of materials and the inexhaustible fund of our own view of the world. Trust in what we do, mutual inspiration and the joy of the painting means themselves are at the heart of this workshop.

All those who want to embark on an intensive painting process and are open to playfulness and the unexpected along the way are welcome.

Anna-Maria Kursawe - Painting - On the Relationship between Objectivity and Abstraction

€560.00
No free place
Sun 8/3/25 - 8/16/25
Fine Arts
The focus of the course is the clarification and further development of own pictorial concepts in the field of tension between representativeness and abstraction. The basis is perception, natural vision (in contrast to the camera's gaze), direct contact with things, precise observation, one's own fresh gaze rubbing against reality, because the training of the gaze is also necessary for abstract work. As a result of spatial-object representations, abstract compositions can be created that structure the image surface with their own pictorial rhythm. The course offers individual support on the way to the further development of one's own visual language. It is aimed at people with several years of painting practice.
