Thirteen masters students
Werkplaats Typografie
Opening 9/30 June 2023
Workshop

Thirteen masters students from the Werkplaats Typografie (Arnhem, the Netherlands) arrived at @big_table_athens this Tuesday. They will stay here for a month with their project Found&Lost.
When visiting Found&Lost you should never expect anything, as you will not find what you’re looking for. The room is in perpetual remodelling since the day it opened. In this process lies its purpose, as change feeds the discussion and keeps Found&Lost alive.
Found&Lost is an open-study project run by Werkplaats Typografie, Year 23.
The Werkplaats Typografie, part of the ArtEZ University of the Arts, is a two-year graphic design masters programme founded in 1998, centred on self-initiated projects and assignments with meetings, lectures, excursions, seminars and readings geared towards self-accountable and independently motivated work and research.

“Flip the table”
collective writing workshop
led by Christina Reinhardt
4/10/2025
18:00-20:00
at Big Table
maximum number of participants: 13
Workshop description
“Flip the table” is a collective writing workshop led by Christina Reinhardt that flips the idea of the individual writing table into a common table of citational practices, collective memory making, and community politics around textual form. What if the privacy and isolation of the writer is undermined, and the writing table becomes a site of multiple references, collective textual archaeology and interactive association over a wide range of references? “Flip the table” will be a writing jam, an ecosystem of thinking and writing with others escaping the supposed individuality of the writer. A plural repository of singular inputs that loses track of intellectual property and belonging. The group will work with a variety of quotes stemming from diverse sources around the object “table” and work on a collective text as a common writing ground.
