Guided Tours and Workshops for School Classes
Grade level 9-10, can be adapted for upper-level grammar school students
On request
Specially developed for school classes, the workshops invite students not only to view works of art, but also to develop new approaches to art and culture through creative activities and joint reflection. The acts of perceiving, creating, and reflecting form the foundation of all the workshops, which intend to accompany the students in their aesthetic and artistic education process.
Experienced art educators guide them through the exhibition, which is individually tailored to the age and curriculum of each group. Afterwards, practical design phases and discussion rounds offer the opportunity to deepen what they have seen and contribute their own perspectives.
The formats are flexible and can be adapted to suit the needs of the class and the subjects being taught.
Individual agreements on topics, methods, and areas of focus can be tailored to suit specific needs.
For school classes DAS MINSK opens at 9 AM on weekdays (except Tuesdays)!
Exhibition architecture | design and impact | documentation and conception
How is an exhibition created? In a guided tour, students learn how light, colors, signage, and room layout influence the perception of works of art. The tour sharpens their eye for detail and conveys how an exhibition space’s design shapes the atmosphere and effect of the art on display.
In the practical part of the workshop, the students independently explore the building in small groups. They are asked to record their unique and perhaps unexpected observations with their cell phones. These impressions can be directly printed out on a photo printer and brought together to create a fictitious exhibition.
Afterwards, the participants discuss their decisions: Which photos were selected and why?
How do light, position, and arrangement influence the effect of the images? The workshop combines perception, creative design, and reflection and enables students to experience exhibition spaces from a new perspective.
