19.04.23 Kreative Schreibwerkstatt

On April 19, 2023, the workshop Kreative Schreibwerkstatt – A Story Can Save the World? with art mediator Saskia Riedel took place. Based on the exhibition "An Influencer Will Save the World" by Eric Schwarz in the Stadtgalerie Saarbrücken, the participants fed on his works by writing down their own associations and personal thoughts in short texts. With different Creative Writing methods the fear of the blank page was taken away. At the same time, the complexity of Eric Schwarz's artistic work was illuminated through their own creative text work.
