Drawing in the Museum: Art with the Eye, the Hand, and the Focus on the Essentials
On October 25, 2026, the Museum in the Schaezlerpalais will become a place of precise observation and concentrated viewing of works. The workshop Drawing in the Museum invites young people from 15 years old and adults to not just look at artworks and objects, but to translate them into lines, proportions, and structures.
An Art Experience Between Rococo, Collection, and Present
The Schaezlerpalais is one of the most significant historical houses in Augsburg. Its atmosphere combines baroque splendor with museum tranquility, allowing every detail of the graphic and painting collection to be captured with special intensity. In drawing, moments arise where composition, color effect, and materiality become understandable.
Learning to See in Order to Understand Art Better
The art educator Katharina Leitl accompanies the workshop and helps participants find a personal artistic expression. Drawing together sharpens the perception of space, form, and structure. From the immediate engagement with the exhibits, an aesthetic experience emerges that convincingly connects museum education and artistic practice.
The Schaezlerpalais as a Vibrant Place of Art
Those who come to the Palais on this afternoon will encounter not only the unique exhibition atmosphere of a Rococo palace but also a rich landscape of collections. The house hosts the German Baroque Gallery, the Graphic Collection, and regularly changing special exhibitions. The historical architecture, the famous banquet hall, and the artful rooms create an impressive setting for concentrated encounters with works.
Practical and Open to All Who Want to Deepen Their Understanding of Art
To participate, all you need is a sketchbook in A4 format along with a pencil or colored pencil; an iPad can also be used. The workshop fee is 5 euros, and registration is not required. This format is ideal for anyone who wants to not just consume art but actively explore it.
Conclusion: An Appointment for Everyone Who Truly Wants to See Art
Drawing in the Museum promises an inspiring afternoon of focused observation, artistic practice, and inspiring museum architecture. Anyone wanting to rediscover the beauty of the Schaezlerpalais with their own eyes should not miss this workshop.
