The studio has the following points of focus: Paper object – Paper Technology and Book Art – Book Object – Artist's Book. geführt.
The chief aim of this studio is to impart knowledge and acquaint students with processes that will enable them to engage with these four topics in greater detail and to develop individual artistic works. A special focus is places on form-finding with the medium of paper, paper technology, as well as book design for artists' books and unique books. Students are instructed to work according to the demands of the material, in project-oriented and experimental ways.
The studio will strengthen its internal and external networks, demonstrate the variety of subject areas associated with book art, engage wirth the issue of self-publishing with regard to artists' books, and support artistic flow.

Sie kennen wahrscheinlich die vielfältigen Möglichkeiten, Papier zu gestalten – von der Serviette über Origami, Papiermaché bis zur Verpackung. Papier umgibt uns und ist ein rascher, billiger, stets vorrätiger Werkstoff.
The manufacturing process of fibre pulp from primary cellulose is less known. The milling process activates forces of attraction and repelling forces in the pulp. The raw materials are long-lasting. The "half-life period" of Japan paper is about 1000 years.
A grinder -- the so-called "Holländer" -- is available in the studio. The milling makes it possible to identify and make use of the properties of the used fibres. It is also possible to produce paper and paper objects out of different raw materials, such as, for example, cotton, rags, straw or mulberry bast.
We are able to identify the fibre, the colour, the form, the grammage, the surface finish, the absorption behaviour/ink resistance, the opacity and a number of other properties. This leads to a great variety of possibilities with regard to design in the two-dimensional plane and in three-dimensional space.
for example, you may want to send us a picture of the ultimate artist's book or paper/book object; you may be interested in doing a field trip; you have a suggestion for an exhibition relating to the topic; you would like to voice criticism or have suggestions to expand or intensify the range of options we offer at the studio -- please send us an email.

Please call us before intensive project meetings, so we can schedule sufficient time for you. For intensive supervision of project, term or diploma projects, a personal visit to the studio and a preliminary discussion is mandatory, AT LEAST two weeks before you start working on the project.
Please plan enough time for the occasionally long drying time in your work plan.
