ArtTalks are a fun and engaging way to explore art and artists! Led by Art Historian Karla Schlaepfer, these small group sessions spark lively conversations as you explore top exhibitions at Cologne’s Museum Ludwig and Wallraf-Richartz Museum. 2026-04-18T00:00:00Z https://art-talks.de/ Karla Schlaepfer, M.A. 2026-04-18T19:00:01Z https://art-talks.de/bye-bye-wallraf-abschiedstour-durch-700-jahre-kunst/ <h2 id="🖼️-Sag-Tschüss-zu-Deinen-Lieblingswerken">🖼️ Sag Tschüss zu Deinen Lieblingswerken</h2> <p>Liebe ArtTalker,</p> <p>am 3. August schließt das Wallraf-Richartz-Museum für rund zwei Jahre. Renovierung. Erweiterung. Ende 2028 ist es wieder da. Bis dahin haben wir noch Zeit für einen richtig schönen Abschied 👋</p> <p>Ein kleines Geständnis: Die holländischen Maler dieser Sammlung haben mein Herz. Dieser liebevolle, präzise Blick auf die Welt. Eine Zitronenschale, die sich genau so kräuselt. Licht, eingefangen in einem Glas Wein. Ein Samtärmel, den man fast fühlen kann. Sie haben die kleinen Dinge ernst genommen. Weil sie es wert sind.</p> <h2 id="🎉-Weitere-Highlights">🎉 <strong>Weitere Highlights</strong></h2> <p><strong>Lochners juwelhafte Muttergottes in der Rosenlaube. Dürer und Rubens. Rembrandts Blick, der uns 400 Jahre später noch direkt anschaut. Caspar David Friedrichs stille Weite. Rodin. Monet, Van Gogh. 700 Jahre Kunst unter einem Dach🎊</strong></p> <p>Am 7. Mai gehen wir gemeinsam durch!</p> <h2 id="📰-ArtTalks-in-„Echt“">📰 ArtTalks in „Echt“</h2> <p>Klein, aber fein: ArtTalks wurde von der Redaktion des neuen Kunstmagazins <em>Echt</em> (Oliver Weuthen) als ausgewählter Kulturtipp aufgenommen. Auf Seite 60. Die Ausgabe ist vollgepackt mit klugen und teils humorvollen Artikeln. Von Kusama bis zur Discovery Art Fair und vielem mehr.</p> <p><em>Echt</em> liegt kostenlos in vielen Kölner Geschäften aus. Lohnt sich!</p> <h2 id="🔴-Yayoi-Kusama-Teil-2:-2-Juli:-das-Extravaganza-geht-weiter">🔴 Yayoi Kusama Teil 2: 2. Juli: das Extravaganza geht weiter</h2> <p>Die Kusama-Retrospektive im Museum Ludwig ist ein echter Publikumsmagnet. Alle Wochenenden bisher: ausverkauft! Umso schöner, dass ich am 2. Juli gleich zwei ArtTalks für Kölner* anbieten um 10:00 und um 15:00. Zwei Chancen, Kusamas Welt gemeinsam zu erleben.</p> <p>Habt ihr den <a href="https://www.tagesschau.de/tagesthemen/video-1574058.html">Kusama Beitrag im Tagesschau</a> gesehen?</p> <ul> <li> Ihr möchtet einen privaten Kusama-ArtTalk auf Deutsch oder Englisch? Sehr gerne! Meldet euch bei mir bitte 4 Wochen im Voraus. Die Zeitfenster-Tickets müssen so weit vorab beim Museumsdienst digital gebucht werden. </li> </ul> <h2 id="🫶-Neu-dabei-Herzlich-willkommen">🫶 Neu dabei? Herzlich willkommen!</h2> <p>Kurz für alle, die das erste Mal dazustoßen: ArtTalks finden auf Englisch statt, aber es ist kein Vorwissen oder Kunstkenntnis nötig. Hier von einem ArtTalker, Sabine:</p> <blockquote> <p>„Karlas ArtTalks sind perfekt für mich, da ich ein Grundinteresse in Kunst und Museen, aber ansonsten keine große Vorbildung habe. Sie bringt die jeweils immer aktuellen Themen locker und verständlich rüber, stellt zwischendurch Fragen um die Teilnehmenden mit einzubeziehen. Ein ‚Talk‘ als Gespräch über Kunst nicht nur ein Vortrag.“</p> </blockquote> <p>Wir lernen zusammen, schauen genau hin, stellen Fragen. Kleine Gruppen. Lebendige Gespräche.</p> <p>Und nach dem ArtTalk? Geht’s oft noch auf einen Kaffee oder ein Glas Wein um die Ecke oder im Museum Café. Das ist bei uns Tradition. Kommt gerne mit, so entstehen die besten Gespräche ❣️</p> <p>Bis zum 07. Mail!</p> <p>Artfully yours 🖼️</p> <p><strong>Karla Schlaepfer</strong></p> <p><strong>*zur Zeit ist Yayoi Kusama am 02.07. schon ausgebucht. Tickets nur für Kölner (mit Ausweis) erhältlich. Über mich (ich habe 15 Karten per AT Slot) kommt ihr auch nur in die Austellung, wenn ihr den Kölner Ausweis vorzeigt.</strong></p> <p><strong>ENGLISH</strong></p> <h2 id="🖼️-Say-goodbye-to-your-favourites">🖼️ Say goodbye to your favourites</h2> <p>Dear ArtTalkers,</p> <p>On August 3, the Wallraf-Richartz Museum closes for around two years. Renovation. Extension. Back end of 2028. Which means we still have time for a proper farewell.</p> <p>A small confession: the Dutch painters have my heart. That loving, precise look at the world. A lemon peel curling just so. Light caught in a glass of wine. A velvet sleeve you can almost feel. They treated the small things seriously. Because they are worth it.</p> <p>And beyond that: Lochner’s jewel-like Madonna in the Rose Arbor. Dürer and Rubens. Rembrandt’s gaze still finding us 400 years later! . Caspar David Friedrich’s quiet landscapes. Monet, Van Gogh. Rodin. 700 years of art under one roof 🎊</p> <h2 id="📰-ArtTalks-featured-in-„Echt“">📰 ArtTalks featured in „Echt“</h2> <p>Small news, nice news: ArtTalks has been featured by the editorial team of the new art magazine <em>Echt</em> (Oliver Weuthen) as a selected Kulturtipp. Page 60. The issue is full of smart, sometimes funny writing. From Kusama to Discovery Art Fair and plenty more.</p> <p><em>Echt</em> is available free of charge in shops across Cologne. Worth picking up :)</p> <h2 id="🖼️-Bye-Bye-Wallraf-----May-7">🖼️ Bye Bye Wallraf — May 7</h2> <p>Two sessions on May 7. We’ll take our time on a stroll through all three floors. Medieval, Baroque, 19th century. Space for your own impressions, questions, and small discoveries.</p> <p>And it’s a Thursday. KölnTag. Free entry for Cologne citizens with ID showing residency. Otherwise normal museum entrance: 10€.</p> <h2 id="🔴-Kusama-Part-2:-July-2-----the-crowd-pleaser-continues">🔴 Kusama Part 2: July 2 — the crowd-pleaser continues</h2> <p>The Kusama retrospective at Museum Ludwig is a real crowd-pleaser. Every weekend so far: sold out! All the more reason I’m offering two ArtTalks on July 2 at 10:00 and 15:00. Two chances to step into Kusama’s fantastic world together.</p> <p>Want a private Kusama ArtTalk in German or English? Happy to arrange. Please reach out 3–4 weeks ahead — those timed-entry tickets need to be booked via the Museumsdienst that far in advance.</p> <h2 id="🫶-New-to-ArtTalks-Welcome">🫶 New to ArtTalks? Welcome!</h2> <p>A quick word for anyone joining for the first time: ArtTalks are held in English, and no special knowledge is needed. We learn together, look closely, ask questions. Small groups. Lively conversation.</p> <p>And after the ArtTalk? We often head out together for a coffee or a glass of wine nearby. It’s a bit of a tradition. Come along ❣️ that’s often where the best conversations happen.</p> <p>Artfully yours 🖼️</p> <p><strong>Karla</strong></p> <h2 id="Coming-up-next-Was-kommt-als-Nächstes">Coming up next / Was kommt als Nächstes?</h2> <p>🖼️ <strong>Bye Bye Wallraf — A Farewell ArtTalk</strong></p> <p>7 May 2026 | 10:30 + 18:30 | Wallraf-Richartz Museum</p> <p>A last walk through 700 years of European art before the museum closes for renovation.</p> <p><em>Ein letzter Rundgang durch 700 Jahre europäische Kunst, bevor das Museum für die Renovierung schließt.</em></p> <p>👉 <a href="https://art-talks.de/bye-bye-wallraf/">Sign up / Anmelden</a></p> <p>🔴 <strong>Yayoi Kusama: A Quieter Art Extravaganza</strong></p> <p>2 July 2026 | 10:00 + 15:00 | Museum Ludwig</p> <p>With 300+ works on show, there’s plenty more Kusama to discover.</p> <p><em>Bei über 300 Werken gibt es noch viel mehr Kusama zu entdecken.</em></p> <p>👉 <a href="https://art-talks.de/yayoi-kusama-a-quieter-art-extravaganza/">Sign up / Anmelden</a></p> <h2 id="Further-reading-on-the-Wallraf-farewell">Further reading on the Wallraf farewell</h2> <p>🎨 Wallraf-Richartz Museum — <a href="https://www.wallraf.museum/en/exhibitions/now/2025-10-21-erweiterungsbau/renovation/">Renovation announcement</a></p> <p>The museum’s own note on the closure: after 25 years and 3+ million visitors, the Ungers building is being renovated from August 2026 for around two years.</p> <p>👉 Instagram: you’ve got to check out Kata’s <a href="https://www.instagram.com/direct/t/17844960039444911/">latest ArtTalk reel!</a></p> 2026-04-03T19:00:01Z https://art-talks.de/danke-kusama-fans/ <p><strong>🫶 Danke für die kosmischen Polka-Dot-Momente!</strong></p> <p>Liebe ArtTalker,</p> <p>Was für ein Tag!

Minimal gestures, generous space, and an invitation to notice what usually escapes us: distance, material, balance, and the moment when “almost nothing” becomes intensely present.</p> <p>In this ArtTalk, we’ll explore why Lee Ufan has been so influential, and what makes minimalism feel anything but empty when you really engage with it. This is for anyone who wants a calmer start to the year, and who enjoys art that rewards patience.</p> <p>p.s.

Why were these voices systematically excluded? What structural and social forces shaped these absences?</p> <p>We’ll anchor our looking with <strong>Lubaina Himid’s</strong> <em>Le Rodeur: The Cabin</em> (2017). What story is it telling, and whose perspective is it telling it from? What does the work highlight, and what does it leave in the background?</p> <p>The museum is actively buying works to fill these gaps. This isn’t just historical correction. It’s an evolving conversation about how institutions collect, frame, and remember.</p> <p>Expect close looking and respectful dialogue.

It can be seen as a radical act of resistance.</p> <p>Watt’s work appears alongside historical photochromes that depict “deserted” American landscapes. These are representations that deliberately leave out Indigenous peoples from their own home.</p> <p>We’ll consider works by <strong>T.C. Cannon</strong> (Kiowa/Caddo), <strong>Leon Polk Smith</strong> (Cherokee), and others whose indigenous backgrounds shaped contemporary art but have been systematically overlooked.</p> <p>We’ll explore what changes when you view a museum not as a neutral space, but as a space shaped by choices and biases.</p> <ul> <li> 💰 ArtTalk Fee: €28 adults | €8 students, artists, and kids </li> <li> 💡 Long Cologne Thursday opening, museum entrance free for Cologne citizens (with valid ID). </li> <li> 📍 Meeting Point: Central foyer, by the column with the BLUE dot. </li> </ul> <p>Before you head home, join us for a casual drink and light bites and connect with the ArtTalk community 🤝 over best moments 🎨 and new insights.</p> <p>Let’s leave with sharper seeing, and better questions.</p> <h3 id="🎨-Along-the-Color-Line:-Transatlantic-Modernism-Reframed"><strong>🎨 Along the Color Line: Transatlantic Modernism, Reframed</strong></h3> 2025-12-05T19:00:01Z https://art-talks.de/yayoi-kusama-a-quieter-art-extravaganza/ <p>If you love Kusama but prefer a calmer viewing experience, this ArtTalk is for you.
