New mediation format at DASMAXIMUM
artMOVED is a new art education program at DASMAXIMUM that is aimed at people with and without inclusion needs. The majority of traditional museum education concepts are based on a linguistic and intellectual approach to art, which makes access more difficult for people with various social, physical or cognitive disabilities. Together with the two dance educators Andrea Marton and Ute Schmitt, we would like to work with artMOVED take a different path, based on a physical and intuitive perspective.
A central component of the new concept is developing it together with the relevant target groups. In March, representatives from various social institutions met at DASMAXIMUM to discuss the new concept with the museum team and dance educators. artMOVED and adapt them to the individual needs and strengths of the respective groups.
With artMOVED The aim is to create a long-term and inclusive offer that not only brings the most diverse target groups into the museum halls via the "mixed ability" approach, but also creates a place for encounters and cultural participation.
The first project run in July 2024 will therefore also be used to engage in a direct exchange with the participants in order to create a joint project for real cultural participation in the long term.
