In diesem Workshop entwirfst du deine eigene digitale Mode – von der ersten Idee bis zur virtuellen Fashion Show. Du startest analog mit Papier und Stift und bringst danach deine Ideen in den dreidimensionalen Raum: Mit der VR-Brille gestaltest du direkt in 3D, experimentierst mit Proportionen, Volumen und Details. Schritt für Schritt zeigen wir dir, wie du dein fertiges Outfit an einem Avatar platzierst und diesen durch einen virtuellen Raum bewegst. Zum Abschluss präsentieren wir eure Designs in einer gemeinsamen virtuellen Fashion Show.
Du brauchst keine Vorkenntnisse – Neugier und Spaß am Ausprobieren reichen völlig aus.
Der Workshop wird von FemReality durchgeführt – einer Organisation, die kreative und zugängliche Wege in digitale Welten eröffnet. www.femreality.com

Please note: This course will be held in German!
In this holiday course, we will first gather lots of colourful ideas and inspiration from famous artists such as Monet, Cézanne and Matisse. Then, in the Palast Studio, we will conduct our own artistic experiments. We will paint with bright colours, using dots, strokes and surfaces. We will do exciting drawing exercises and collage strong, vibrant pictures – all using a wide variety of materials, just like the great masters. We will be surprised by the results and at the end we will put on a small exhibition for our families. We look forward to seeing you!

The history of the fragrance
In this special series, the focus lies not only on selected art-historical insights, but above all on shared exchange and personal perceptions. This time, we aim to evoke memories through the sense of smell.

On this short guided tour, we embark on a sensory journey through selected periods and artworks, guided by various scent stations. Natural essences derived from woods and resins point to long routes connecting Asia and Europe. They were used in religion, rituals, medicine, and personal care. Along the way, selected artworks also open up perspectives on trade and structures of power.

The tour invites you to look closely, consciously perceive, and share impressions with each other—and to experience art in a completely different, sensual way.

After the tour, we cordially invite you to continue the conversation in a cozy atmosphere over coffee and cake.

The price includes a slice of cake and a coffee, cappuccino, tea or soft drink of your choice.

This format is aimed at people who would like to enrich their everyday lives through new encounters and who are interested in art. No prior knowledge is required.

Düsseldorf as art center in the postwar period
In this special series, the focus lies not only on art-historical contexts, but also on shared exchange and personal impressions. Sometimes all it takes is a single artwork to spark a conversation or awaken memories.

This time, our topic is Düsseldorf as a hotspot of the art scene from the 1950s to the 1970s. The event explores the gallery scene and its key figures. We will discuss the influence of the ZERO artists as well as the experimental, sometimes quirky performances and exhibition actions of the era, in which art, everyday life, and provocation became closely intertwined. Special attention is given to the legendary underground club Creamcheese, once a central meeting place for an open and innovative art and cultural scene.

After the tour, we warmly invite you to continue the conversations in a relaxed atmosphere over coffee and cake.

There is much to be amazed by, to ask about and to experience on this family tour. Visitors of all ages are warmly invited to embark on a journey of discovery through a very special art collection.
Around 180 works by artists from France and around the world are on display. Some of the paintings are over 100 years old, while others are brand new and surprise visitors with their bright colours, unusual shapes and cute cats.

The Scharf Collection ranges from 19th and 20th century French art to contemporary international works. Highlights include pieces by Paul Cézanne, Claude Monet, Pierre Bonnard, Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Katharina Grosse.
We draw on this diversity in our series of workshops for adults, taking inspiration from the exhibition. Once a month, we focus on a particular artistic technique or motif and get creative ourselves.

In July, the focus is on paper cutting, which artist Henri Matisse also called ‘drawing with scissors’. Inspired by this idea, we experiment with paper, paint and cutting in the workshop to create our own compositions.

In June, the focus is on printing techniques. The collection includes prints by Goya, Japanese woodblock prints and almost the entire graphic oeuvre of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. We learn the basics and design our own prints on paper.

In this open studio, we will draw inspiration from the artistic techniques and motifs of the exhibition and get creative together. No registration is required; just drop by.

In May, the focus will be on the theme of figure in space. Depicting the human body in the context of its surroundings opens up exciting perspectives and compositional possibilities. In the workshop, we will experiment with lines, volume and spatial effects.
