Lectures, talks, literature and music on Sunday at the Icon Museum
(kus) As part of the special exhibition "Beautiful Borders. Gitterwerke und Scherenschnitte" (Beautiful Borders. Lattice Works and Silhouettes) by Frankfurt artist Margarete Zahn at the Ikonen-Museum Frankfurt, lectures, talks, literature and music are on the program on Museum Day, March 12. The event begins at 2 pm. The lattice-like silhouettes have their models in Gothic or historicizing windows and ceilings of old architecture. In the process of creation, they serve as a base for the further elaboration of the large-format acrylic paintings, which Margarete Zahn calls grid works. The exhibition is on view through April 23.
