Have you been to the Picasso exhibition at the Beyeler Museum in Riehen? If you look at the pictures and remember how Picasso developed, you can see it clearly: he learned the craft and developed a reduction from the diversity of what he had learned. Some of his later drawings, for example, are incredibly reduced. The viewer's eye is not concerned with missing lines. It sees the object. With this reduction, the artist creates a new, essential detail.

Yes, what do these thoughts have to do with Seniors@Work?

At Seniors@Work, people come forward with a wealth of experience from their professional lives. They first had to learn their trade in detail. The learning effect was accompanied by a reduction to the essentials. The essence of experience in dealing with the profession was made visible. And new developments, new details came to light. And here they are, the seniors who are happy to pass on what they have learned.

A high level of professionalism and knowledge is now available to interested parties. It would be a shame not to make use of this know-how. So, dear reader: in keeping with the motto "Do good and talk about it", we would be delighted if you would spread the word about seniors@work!
