Documentation
Internationally-active artists and curators, as well as dynamic display formats, are currently characteristics of the latest in artistic productions; but what effects do these new exhibition formats produce?
This is the question Platform3 raised in its lecture series Contemporary Curatorial Practices throughout 2009/ 2010. This programme has been conceived in cooperation with ifa-galleries Stuttgart and Berlin. Our guests were international curators and artist collectives working in Turkey, France, South Africa, the Near East and Romania. Their lectures covered curatorial approaches and present actual exhibition projects with regards to the respective on-site working conditions. Contemporary Curatorial Practices offered Munich -based cultural workers and people interested in the arts to experience curatorial visions firsthand.
Kindly review video documentation and scripts of the lectures on the following pages.
Open Studios
The 22 atelier rooms in PLATFORM3 are open to the public. As these are artistic production areas the works are outside the recreated space of a museum or exhibition and are shown in the place of their original creation. This allows for the unique opportunity to gain an immediate connection between workshop, work process, and finished work. There is also the rare opportunity to engage with the artists on the premises for their works.
For reasons of time constraints and the limited number of guests we can accommodate, a tour should take no longer than 2 hours, thus allowing for a selection of the open workshops to be visited.
Groups of maximum 15 people can book a slot at least 3 weeks before the proposed date by email or telephone:

Children’s Art Workshops
Regularly, in conjunction with special exhibitions, spaces in PLATFORM3 are converted into children’s workshops with differing artistic themes. These allow room for creativity, fantasy and free work.
In close proximity to the artist’s ateliers and the atmosphere of creation and exhibition, the children can let their creative potential loose under supervision of artists and art education professionals. In this way the children can establish contact with artists and so discover and develop their own ideas, approaches and techniques.
School classes and other cultural education bodies are also offered the possibility to visit PLATFORM3.
Additionally, children can join one of the many guided tours of the ateliers and so get a feel for the real-life process of creation.
