SLOW ART DAY ***fully booked
special guided tour in the double exhibition CAUTION, GLASS!

Slow Art – Time for Art
The idea of slow, decelerated art viewing is not new. In recent years, museum educators and art scholars have repeatedly observed that the maximum time a museum visitor spends in front of a work of art is between 17 and 19 seconds—if the object description is read, there is often even less time left to view the work. A trend that emerged rather accidentally in New York in 2008 is addressing this issue: art is deliberately viewed for longer, so that visitors end up seeing only a few works in the exhibition, but all the more intensively. What may seem like a restriction at first turns out to be, in practice, a wonderful means of seriously examining one’s own individual experiences and attitudes.

The number of participants is limited to 6 people (from 12 years)
