Teaching concept

For the basics of Theatre Setting | Sculptural basics I/II (for all four subject areas of Theatre Setting, under Prof. Büttner)

  • Sculptural strategies and concepts
  • Discussion about the interplay between tectonics, organics (proportion, rhythm, characters) and alienation using a concrete example
  • Finding and analysing the potential of sculptures (creating a collection of materials), recognising and applying formal classification criteria
  • Simulation of interventions in the architectonic context - “urban parasites”
