tours and workshops for kindergartens, schools, higher education institutions and after-school care groups
Discover & Reflect – interactive formats for the exhibition ‹Groundwork›
How is architecture created today – and who shapes it? The exhibition ‹Groundwork› explores these questions. Films, documents and materials provide insight into different working methods and present architecture as an open process shaped by social and ecological conditions. The learning formats focus on key aspects of the exhibition and serve as a starting point for shared exploration. Observation, questioning and the development of personal ideas are at the core.
Dialogic format (60 minutes)
The exhibition is explored together: observations are shared and developed through discussion.
For younger children, the focus is on direct experience. Individual impressions are taken up and translated into their own ideas about space, building and living together.
