Makers & Materials – Conversations: Knowledge and Innovation in Glass Art
«Makers & Materials» is a series of recurring conversations on craft and art talking place at the Sitterwerk Foundation. Through moderated conversations in the Material Archive, artists, craftspeople, curators and historians will discuss materials, technology and the hidden processes behind the artwork. The evenings open up new perspectives on the “making” of art and offer the audience the opportunity to gain insight into the practice and voices of the makers.
