Fine Monotype at the Diocesan Museum Freising: Printmaking as a Sensory Artistic Experience
On November 4, 2026, the Diocesan Museum Freising invites you to the open workshop Fine Monotype. Guided by Martina Mair, delicate, multi-layered worlds of images are created on paper using a simple, fascinating printing technique. Each work develops its own character between color trace, form, and chance.
Between Impression and Imagination
The monotype combines painterly design with the possibilities of printmaking. Colors are applied to a surface, transferred, and altered through movement, pressure, and material effects. This results in fragile lines, soft transitions, and surprising structures. Whether animals, fantasy creatures, or abstract forms emerge from the color areas is left to one's own imagination.
Art Mediation with Direct Reference to the Work
The DIMU workshops address different aspects and exhibits of the exhibitions. The open workshop creates immediate access to art history, material experience, and aesthetic education. Children, adults, and families discover fundamental principles of composition, contrast, and image space and take a self-designed object home.
Workshop Atmosphere for All Age Groups
Work will take place in the museum education rooms on the ground floor of the Propstei as well as in the DIMU workshop in the basement. Up to ten people can be supervised simultaneously. Participation is aimed at all museum visitors. For younger children, an accompanying adult supports the work observation and creative process.
Practical Information about the Workshop
The open workshop takes place on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, from 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM. Participation costs 5 euros; for adults, the regular museum entrance fee applies. The language of the event is German, and the duration remains variable. The workshop is suitable as a cultural experience for families, curious beginners, and for anyone who wants to explore printmaking with their hands and eyes.
Conclusion: Create Your Own Images
Fine Monotype promises a focused break full of color, form, and creative surprises. The Diocesan Museum Freising combines cultural education with practical design and makes the aesthetic experience immediately tangible. Anyone who wants to not only observe printmaking but also create it should attend this workshop live and take home a personal artwork.
