Even before the official opening, students, trainees and pupils (from upper secondary level onwards) have the opportunity to experience the exhibition and to talk with special guests.
Thomas Schütte is particularly interested in the spaces in which his sculptures become protagonists and develop a very distinctive aura.
In the Sneak Peek, we explore together with Judith Niggehoff, theatre educator, choreographer and director, the architecture of the K21 and the special presence of Thomas Schütte's sculptures. How do the works have an effect in the space? How do we encounter them with our bodies, and what relationships arise between sculpture, model and viewers?
Judith Niggehoff initiates and accompanies artistic processes as a form of expression and education for young people. She studied Special Needs Education with a focus on Aesthetic Education at the University of Cologne and completed a training in dance pedagogy.
