School formats in the exhibitions

We present here our offerings for schoolchildren in association with special exhibitions. Our school programme offers skills- and activity-oriented approaches to art for all grades and educational levels. Through discussion and learning based on exemplary artworks, pupils are encouraged to think about and interact with art. Teachers will discover links to school curricula and will be able to incorporate new ideas into their lessons.

All our offerings are dialogue-based and interactive. For formats 120 minutes or longer, a studio component is possible.

On request, we can also adapt formats to different educational levels.

Interactive image viewing or workshop with creative or performative experiments

IMPRESSIONISM: CURTAIN UP!  4th – 13th grade

Dialogue-based and interactive guided tour or workshop with creative practice

60 min | 90 min collection or 120 min collection + studio

Come over here! Look at me and be amazed! What do you recognise in my face? Take a close look! Can you assume my posture?

In “Curtain Up!” we look at casts of characters whose stage directors, the Impressionists, were masterful composers. But how did they go about creating these figures? We will investigate their techniques and philosophise and perform based on concepts such as the key moment and staging. Paintings and sculptures provide the impetus to get moving and recreate with our own bodies the motifs of the Impressionists.

IMPRESSIONISM. DREAM-LIKE CITYSCAPES  5th – 13th grade

Interactive discussion or workshop with creative techniques

60 min | 90 min collection or 120 min collection + studio

Let’s take a closer look: Are those fluffy white clouds or a murky vapour building up in the background of Alfred Sisley’s The Seine at Billancourt? How do landscape and cityscape actually differ from one another? We follow the Impressionists in their observations and reflect on processes of change in nature and the city. What impresses us as we move through the world? What do we do in our free time?

In this format we get to know the chief characteristics of Impressionism. Works of art provide food for thought for how we live and how we want to live.

ISA MONA LISA  1st – 4th grade

Interactive talk or workshop with creative techniques

How do you imagine a person? We often only see what we already know. But is that the whole truth? When you hear the word »woman«, what image comes to mind and what expression do the artists in the exhibition find to broaden our view?

Pupils are introduced to contemporary art by looking and asking questions. The content is approached, discussed and reflected upon in dialogue and using interactive methods.

The programme is dialogue-based and interactive. We work with a small selection of works as examples. Creative techniques are used in front of the originals.

From a length of 120 minutes, this format can also be booked to include digital practice in the studio.

ILLUSION. Dream – Identity – Reality  1st – 4th grade

We trace the different facets of illusion in art from the Old Masters, through the Renaissance and Baroque to the present day.
