Posters in the city offer the opportunity to reach a large number of people. This medium is also used by the artists of the current exhibition It’s Just a Matter of Time, who question the boundary between ‘private’ and ‘public’ or aim to provoke thought among a broad audience. For example, the phrase “It’s just a matter of time” on the poster by Felix González-Torres was always translated into the local language to ensure that everyone understood the message.

In this workshop, we will create posters together and think about which sentence, motif, or drawing is suitable for reaching a wide audience. Together, we will consider how we can convey a powerful message with our posters!

On the occasion of the exhibition, It’s Just a Matter of Time, we would like to talk with you about the peculiarities of time and, in the following workshop, design our own book on this topic. Time is a strange thing. If you think about it and research it for a long time, a whole kaleidoscope of amazing certainties, curious facts, philosophical depths, and unanswerable questions opens up.

In his book artwork Now, David Böhm has gathered this dazzling richness of facets. Together with you, we would like to dive into it and exchange ideas about time measurement, time zones, and time perception—about mayflies and Greenland sharks, marvel at the craziest 1-minute world records, and set our own.

How has the city changed, and what traces of the past can still be found on the streets of Berlin? Together, we will embark on a search for traces to discover the history of the PalaisPopulaire and the history of the city. What has changed, and why? What influences might have played a role in this? How do you imagine this area in the future?

We will learn that the past does not disappear without a trace and how our current behavior can also shape the future. Afterwards, we will capture our impressions and new ideas in a collage and creatively implement our visions for the future of the city.
