Words in a Box is an online training workshop designed for teachers of every grade level, and is inspired by “Word,” one of the courses offered by the A Scuola di Guggenheim program.
The workshop, organized in collaboration with Edulia Treccani Scuola and led by Professor Antonella Sbrilli, is a journey through words and images, highlighting devices developed throughout the history of art that relate to certain traditional game formats, such as simulation, chance, skill, and word games.
A selection of works in the Peggy Guggenheim Collection supports this study, which will introduce various ways of exploring the formative and expressive potential of image/word combinations.
