ZINES* "Die Redaktion" im Lenbachhaus Workshop mit Julia Richter und Jakob Weiß

*Zine (/zi:n/ ZEEN; short for magazine or fanzine) is a self-published magazine in a small edition with own or appropriated texts and pictures, which is usually reproduced with a photocopier.

Julia and Jakob will create a zine* with you in one day.

Die_Redaktion is an open collective that invites people aged 15-115 to find and use their social or political voice. Through fruitful exchange and the networking of living and thinking worlds, a joint zine will be created. You can write, glue, draw, stamp, photograph, collage - everything is allowed in zines.

The focus of these workshops is on our surroundings. How do we understand public spaces and (how) do we want to influence them? What do they do to us and what can we do with them? We go outside and fill our inner thinking spaces with external impressions, which we put directly and bluntly into a joint zine.
