Workshop “Your message – your poster – DIY with screen printing”
Tzschirnerplatz 2, 01067 Dresden, Germany
ostZONE – Workshops, talks with contemporary witnesses and city walks to accompany the exhibition Revolutionary Romances – Global Art Histories in the GDR at the Albertinum
What was everyday life like for contract workers or international students in the GDR? How do artists express themselves in repressive systems?
The contract workers, international trainees and students who arrived during the GDR era are living here in the second and third generation. Their history and present are not present. This is where ostZONE comes in: we offer space for questions and joint remembrance – different life paths in GDR history come into conversation. The Albertinum becomes a place of encounter!
Workshop “Your message – your poster – DIY with screen printing”
with Moussa Mbarek
Become an artist and print self-made posters! We will familiarise ourselves with the screen printing process, print motifs from the exhibition and add our own messages and interpretations. Develop your own individual shapes and symbols – we will help you to abstract and support you in printing.
The results can be presented in the epilogue room of the exhibition.
Come by!
In the ostZONE we ask and remember together. In an exchange between generations and cultures about the past and present, we want to get to know and share experiences: intergenerational and intercultural, from former contract workers (e.g. from Vietnam or Mozambique), from people who have moved here since 1989 (e.g. from Libya or Mexico), from people from Dresden with and without a GDR background.
The project ostZONE is a cooperation with the ethnologist Dr. Verena Böll and Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden (SKD).
