Art and dementia
Cultural participation
Through the project Art and Dementia, the Bucerius Kunst Forum opens up a space for cultural participation for visitors with dementia. The engagement with art and culture aims to contribute to increasing the well-being and communication behavior of those affected.
The pilot project Art and Dementia was developed in close cooperation with the KATHARINENHOF® an der Mühlenau. The declared goal of the project is to enable people who are often isolated from social and societal interaction due to their ailments and who are sometimes no longer able to find their way around in public on their own, to interact with art.
Together with the art educator Sabine Rizzello, a sensual and associative approach to the exhibits is made possible and ensures lasting positive experiences. The artworks encourage the visitors to exchange ideas. They are meant to evoke memories that connect to the realities of the group's lives. The gentle approach is also continued and encouraged in the studio visit in the playful handling of form and color. In the echo of what is seen, very individual masterpieces emerge.
Exclusive opening of the exhibition house
The exhibition will be opened exclusively for the visits and thus offers an intimate setting for the participants.
The 90-minute offer of the Bucerius Kunst Forum includes a guided tour of the exhibition in very small groups. Afterwards, the participants can work creatively with different materials in the studio.
Bei Anruf Kultur
Bei Anruf Kultur offers you the opportunity to experience the current exhibition at the Bucerius Kunst Forum by phone. If you are unable to view the exhibition on site, simply listen to the guided tour from the comfort of your home via telephone.
The project Bei Anruf Kultur was launched by grauwert Büro für Inklusion und demografiefeste Lösungen in cooperation with the Hamburg Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired (BSVH) and various Hamburg museums and art educators in 2021. In this context, the telephone tours through Hamburg's art landscape form an alternative to conventional cultural mediation. The goal of the project is to make culture accessible to everyone at all times.
How does Bei Anruf Kultur work?
For one hour, the exhibition guide takes you on a tour of the current show at the Bucerius Kunst Forum via your telephone. After registering, all participants receive a landline number and the access code for dialing in. During the tour, the listeners will be muted. In between and after the tour, there will be designated discussion rounds, which offer the opportunity to ask questions to the art mediators, for which the listeners will be switched on again.

ART FOR EVERYONE
With the project Art for All, the Bucerius Kunst Forum supports the cultural participation and creativity of students with physical and motor development needs at the Tegelweg School.
The project Art for All was developed in 2019 in close cooperation with the school Tegelweg. As a school with a special focus on physical and motor development, it offers its students experiences at extracurricular learning venues in addition to classroom and therapy offerings at school. Since the project was founded, school classes have visited the Bucerius Kunst Forum several times a year.
The declared goal of the project is to enable people who often face social and cultural barriers due to their physical motor conditions to have real encounters with works of art, which are often difficult, and thus to broaden their cultural participation.
In interactive guided tours through the current exhibition, the students are given practical access to the works. After visiting the exhibition, they put what they have experienced and seen into practice in a practical and imaginative way in the studio. Outside of the usual school day, the students have new experiences and gain an interactive and creative approach to art.
Art in silence
We particularly recommend our Silent Strolls to neurodivergent people and all other visitors who prefer a quiet and relaxed atmosphere. With this offer, we create a peaceful environment for a sensory gentle art experience.
