Open Workshop

11.11.2016 — 12.02.2017

From 11. – 22. November, the van Hove studio from Marrakesh resided at Frankfurter Kunstverein. The artist and his team of ten highly specialised artisans and mechanics invited visitors as well as local project groups and initiatives from the fields of craftsmanship, design and engineering to participate. Work at the garage was initially conducted by Moroccan craftsmen in collaboration with local participants, from the end of November to February, local groups will continue their work autonomously.

Starting point for all workshop activities are the objects and mechanic sculptures developed and realised by the artist. Local groups then assume the realisation of their own projects’ aims. Besides weekly meetings of expert groups and enthusiasts, two workshops will take place at the Open Workshop, addressing the issues e-mobility and 3D-print.

Interested groups can use the workshop upon agreement. Individual visitors can drop by spontaneously.
