You
will be given a sheet of white paper at the start of the ArtWalk, before
you set off on a short walk that will take you around seven stops. At each
stop you will find an engraved copper plate illustrating a chapter from
the story of ”The Ship of
Fools”. The idea is to place your paper on top of this copper plate and
then rub over it gently with a wax crayon, which will make certain lines
of the copper relief appear on the paper. If you repeat this process at
all seven stops with the same piece of paper, you will end up with a
seven-colour picture which you will not have seen at any of the individual
stops. The ArtWalk, which can be enjoyed by anyone of 4 years and over,
requires absolutely no technical skills and is an exciting, entertaining
way to create your very own personal EXPO.02 souvenir. The
ArtWalk was invented in 1995 by multimedia Swiss artist, Daniel
Ambühl. There have been fifteen ArtWalks so far, e.g. in Berlin,
Greifwald, Braunschweig, Ludwigsburg, and Zurich, each with an original
picture story. You can find out more about the artist on the Internet at www.danielambuehl.ch |
