To accompany the exhibition *Made in Düsseldorf #8: In Szene gesetzt*, a discussion will take place with three artists featured in the exhibition and the curator. Andreas Gefeller, Gudrun Kemsa and Juergen Staack will offer an insight into their artistic work. The discussion will focus on the following questions: What do we see when we look at a picture? And how do space and time influence our perception of reality?

The curator will guide you through the exhibition *Made in Düsseldorf #8: Staged* and explore with you the tension between reality and human perception in the works of Jan Dibbets, Simon Dybbroe Møller, Andreas Gefeller, Gudrun Kemsa, Sophie Meuresch, Steven Pippin, Barbara Probst, Amanda Ross-Ho and Juergen Staack.

Let your creativity flow! In this workshop we use pre-existing pictures to start our own artistic journey. Whether small or big changes – together we edit, create, and explore new readings and visual possibilities. This is an open creative space, inviting you to scribble, splatter, and smear. With colours and different materials, but without confinement, you can enjoy this inspiring afternoon with us.

Patricio Alvarez Aragon is conducting the workshop. He is also an art historian, researcher, curator and artist.

Beginner or advanced, everyone is welcome to join.

Drinking glasses, elaborate stained-glass windows, and glass sculptures: The Glass Collection brings together objects from around the world and showcases the millennia-long development of glass production. Join this 60-minute guided tour to discover the diversity of our collection. Selected artworks, themes, and concepts will be introduced.

When the first glassmakers fused sand and ash, the result must have seemed like a miracle. They had succeeded in imitating radiantly colourful gems using simple raw materials. Since then nearly 4,000 years have passed, and to this day glass has remained a fascinating material in the realms of both high technology and art.

A particular strength of the Glass Collection lies in its comprehensiveness, which provides an almost complete overview of the history of glass art from Antiquity to the present. Many of the pinnacles in the development of glass art are represented by unique principal works held here. Further, a number of areas have become a focus:

An estimated 400 individuals and institutions have bestowed gifts of glass to the Glass Collection since its inception. Thus, the quality of the collection is indebted to a considerable extent to the private commitment of our patrons. First and foremost, it draws from the collection of the Düsseldorf architect Helmut Hentrich (1905–2001), comprising some 3,000 objects with particular emphasis on Art Nouveau glasses. Assuring the museum’s world renown in this field once and for all was the addition of the collection of Art Nouveau glass of the Heidelberg entrepreneur Gerda Koepff (1919-2006). More recently, the collection of the Hamburg pharmacist Frauke Thole has placed an additional focus on the oeuvre of the Czech sculptor Jan Fišar (1933–2010).
