¡Lines, Go!
A collective drawing workshop for children, their families and others accompanying them

With Meeting Lines (artistic collective / Marcos García Pérez and Carla Schliephack)

One hundred twenty years ago, four young artists founded the Expressionist Brücke group – a movement that redefined art: spontaneous, collaborative, and full of emotion. To celebrate this anniversary exhibition, we invite children, their families and friends to join a drawing workshop fostering connection. Like the Brücke artists, we will explore drawing as a free, emotional form of expression. Can a line say more than a thousand words? Which lines can capture our feelings on paper? Through drawing games and interactive puzzles, we’ll experience art as an open and empowering experience. Sometimes we draw together; sometimes we pass on our work, let chance play a role, and discover how art transforms through collaboration. Together, we’ll create puzzles and mobile pictures that surprise and inspire us. Come and jot down your first lines – who will catch them?
Although the workshop will be mainly in German, we mention the languages spoken by the facilitators to make it more accessible. If you don’t feel confident in German, don’t worry—you can still take part.

Marcos García Pérez and Carla Schliephack make up the Berlin-based art duo Meeting Lines. Together, they investigate critical collective processes at the intersection of human/environment and self-education/art. To this end, they develop site-specific drawing practices that involve copying, improvising and playing. The reuse of materials is central to their arts education work as well as their artistic practice.

Marcos García Pérez studied fine arts at the Universidad Politecnica de Valencia and graduated from the UdK Berlin in 2020 in the Art in Context programme. Since then, he has worked as an independent artist and art educator.

After earning a B.A. in fashion design, Carla Schliephack was a master student in the Sculpture Department at the weißensee academy of art berlin, a programme she continues to promote. Through further training as a systemic coach, she now works as an art educator and freelance artist in Berlin.
