Ben Wilson – The Chewinggum Man

Ben Wilson, an artist from London, transforms flattened chewing gum into works of art. In 2019, he came to Zurich at the invitation of the Musée Visionnaire and painted 20 pieces of chewing gum in the Old Town and other districts. Now, two years later, he has returned to restore his paintings and paint more chewing gum. In the workshop, the pupils go on a journey of discovery, track down the tiny works, design their own chewing gum on paper and get to grips with street art. Topics such as: Property, money, climate, society and public space are thus addressed and there is a lot to discover and discuss in an age-appropriate way.

Duration: 2.15h inkl. break / for 1st-6th primary class / 1st-3rd secondary class, vocational preparation year, middle school, vocational school / Costs: CHF 150.- incl. ZVV
