Creative Writing Workshop (DE/EN): Potentially Queer

Creative Writing Workshop (DE/EN): Maë Schwinghammer "Potentially Queer"

Fri 13.02., 16 – 19h

"Is that queer?" is the initial question posed by the writing workshop, and when in doubt, the answer is always: yes, it is queer. As soon as we begin to look at things, people, art or texts from a different perspective or read between the lines, we awaken their queer potential.

In this 3-hour workshop, author Maë Schwinghammer invites participants to explore all kinds of ideas and to view themselves, their own writing topics and/or the current exhibition from new perspectives. Feast your eyes! Close your eyes to the art or view things from the floor of the exhibition space! And have you ever flirtatiously winked at your favourite painting in an exhibition?

This workshop is an invitation to spend an evening strolling through Kunsthalle Wien in literary terms. Concrete suggestions will be made and methods presented on how this stroll can be turned into a writing exercise. Several times during the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to diverge and follow their own writing impulses. In between, there will be the opportunity to share your texts, if you wish.

If required, the workshop can be held in a hybrid format in German and English.
