The museum à la carte
45 – 60 minutes
Under the guidance of 2 mediators, these trips through the collection focus on a specific visual concept: colour, technique (brushstroke, areas of colour, outlining), sculpture materials, the picture and its components, abstraction and figuration.
At the end pupils are given three cards to fill out in class or at home, as the teacher wishes.
Kinds of painting
This activity is run alternately by a mediator from the museum and the teacher. Each session introduces pupils to a specific genre: portrait, landscape or still life.
The museum lends a hand
In the course of a guided tour 2 mediators focus on the language of hands in painting. A booklet and other teaching aids round off the work of observation with practical activities both in the museum and later on in class.
Primary and secondary levels
A combined approach: a self-led tour followed by discussion led by a mediator. Divided up into small groups, participants study a number of works on their own, with the help of information cards. Each group then spends a quarter-hour with a mediator looking in greater detail into a work or the history, functioning or architecture of the museum. The goal of this activity is closer understanding of a specific work or more comprehensive acquaintance with the museum.
In 2 stages, with half-classes alternating: a self-led 30-minute tour taking in a choice of works, followed by 30 minutes with a mediator, discussing the history, architecture or functioning of the museum.
Have your say!
In 2 parts: small groups spend an hour looking at works with the aid of information sheets; then an hour with a mediator, as each group introduces the class as a whole to one of the works just studied.
