Die Botanischen Zeichenkurse von Mira O’Brien finden nun schon seit 2 Jahren im Garten statt. Tolle Zeichnungen sind entstanden und die werden nun in einer zweiten Miniausstellung am Wochenende gezeigt, und zwar im Tiny House in der Nähe vom Liefereingang des Gartens.

Please join us for a special exhibition of botanical illustrations created during the Botanical Drawing Workshop. The drawings and paintings on display were created through a process of close observation, both at the Prinzessinensgarten and the Berlin Drawing Room.
The workshop is inspired by the Naturalists of the 19th century, who were simultaneously artists, explorers and scientists. Through the process of drawing from life, we are seeking to discover what kind of understanding and knowledge can be gained through direct observation. Does it have a different content or quality than knowledge acquired through more passive or indirect channels? Does the process of close observation, even when directed at mundane subject matter such as the weeds of Kreuzberg, yield something unexpected?
