For the selection of this year's lecturers we have, we – Anke Dietrich and Denise Ackermann – chose IN_LOVE as our motto to offer you a summer of artistic creation in an informal atmosphere. In addition to our ‘classic’ range of courses - pain-ting, photography and sculpture - the 28th International Dresden Summer Academy of Fine Arts offers the opportu-nity to immerse yourself in some ‘special’ techniques. We are therefore delighted to be able to offer two printmaking courses: The environmentally friendly technique of risography is cur-rently enjoying great popularity. Our two-week programme on ukiyo-e printmaking teaches you everything you need to know about this traditional Japanese woodblock art from the Edo period. In addition, workshops on metal casting, jewellery de-sign, installation and digital performance complete our course programme.
Summer can come,
Yours Anke Dietrich and Denise Ackermann with the team of riesa efau. Kultur Forum Dresden
