The topic of the Masterclass series – Take an object. Do something to it. Do something else to it. Repeat. – refers to a quote by American painter Jasper Johns. The program is focusing on manipulation, mutation, appropriation, repetition and sequences in the use of language, text, symbols or codes in order to achieve “something different”. The invited guest speakers – visual and performing artists – will give a public lecture on October 18th, and on October 19th a Masterclass with researchers, most of them graphic designers.
