What figures and symbols can be found on the reconstructed façade of the Humboldt Forum? What do they mean? And how were the copies of the sculptural decorations created?
In this workshop, students from grades 1 to 6 explore historical symbols and the visual language of Baroque sculpture. They learn about traditional reconstruction techniques and get hands-on experience with the negative-positive casting method using modeling clay and plaster. As part of the creative process, they design their own reliefs — and take their self-made molds and casts home with them.
