Schools

Casino Luxembourg offers a mediation/visit programme aimed at school groups in basic, secondary and higher education, as well as relay houses and school foyers. It aims to develop a critical sense and observation, to open the discussion on the different forms of creation and their relationship to the current world.

The mediation team looks forward to welcoming you to two dynamic and innovative exhibitions. In Hot Flashes, Belgian-Luxembourg artist Aline Bouvy explores the transition from childhood to adulthood, the period that shapes the construction and development of every individual. The exhibition takes a critical look at the stages of our lives - constantly under influence, caught up in the straitjacket of educational, social, moral, family and political convictions, subject to the gaze of others and to a relative freedom.

The group exhibition TUBE.PHOTO.DASH offers a new way of going back and forth between two basic production formats in photographic work and essential to its dissemination: the book and the exhibition space. While the former takes us into a more intimate, horizontal reading of photography, the latter takes us into a broader, vertical reading.

Guided tours
Guided tours can take several forms: visits in the company of an exhibition guide, around the history of the Casino, discussion of contemporary art or other topics.

Tailor-made workshops
These are workshops directly linked to the current exhibition. After the guided tour, the participants carry out specific projects under the supervision of a mediator.

Permanent workshops
Accessible all year round and independent of temporary exhibitions, these workshops are inspired by the permanent works of the Casino.

In addition to the art mediation/visits offered at Casino Luxembourg, it is possible to organise workshops, educational projects or guided tours adapted to the school curriculum or to the subjects discussed in class. These projects and creative works can span several sessions, depending on your availability and needs.

Intra and extra muros collaborations
Do you have an idea for a specific workshop, a particular request for your class, or the desire to create your tailor-made project? Do not hesitate to submit them to us! Our team is always looking for new projects and collaborations. Based on exchange and transdisciplinarity, these projects can extend over several sessions and adapt to the school curriculum.

Continuing education for teaching staff
All training and master classes for teaching staff are approved by the Institut de formation de l’éducation nationale (IFEN).

WORKSHOPS

Cork Creatures
Primary and secondary education

Inspired by her childhood memories of family reunions, Aline Bouvy's Hot Flashes exhibition features oversized cork sculptures. In this workshop, we'll follow her creative example by transforming simple corks into unique objects and figures, or small paintings, using tools, felt pens, moving eyes, scraps of fabric and a healthy dose of imagination. 

Flashbacks
Primary and secondary education

In this workshop, designed as part of Aline Bouvy's Hot Flashes exhibition, pupils will explore the artist's themes and the works created specifically for Casino Luxembourg, combining them with anecdotes and childhood memories. The stories (of characters from TV series, comic strips, fairy tales, dolls or monsters) are then immortalised in drawings and produced in the form of key rings.

Milk Box Prints
Primary and secondary education

Before the advent of cameras, printmaking was used to create reproductions. In this workshop, we'll be linking the two exhibitions and looking at the giant postcards in Hot Flashes and the photographs of everyday packaging by artist and photographer Batia Suter in TUBE.PHOTO.DASH, before learning about the ancient technique of engraving. We'll use empty juice or milk cartons (Tetra Paks), engrave designs on the cardboard, apply ink and print the whole thing onto postcards that are still empty.

Tube.Photo.Press 
Primary and secondary education

In this workshop, students will explore the creative possibilities of monotype, a printing technique that produces unique images. Inspired by the visual experiments and complex compositions in the TUBE.PHOTO.DASH exhibition, participants will produce their own prints, working with texture, transparency and repetition. Using simple materials such as ink, Plexiglas, paper and plants, they will play with composition and chance, reflecting the spirit of photographic manipulation and analogue distortion.

Instant Photo Collage
Primary and secondary education

In this workshop, students will use an instant camera to capture spontaneous moments and print the photos directly onto till receipts. These instant photos are then transformed into a leporello and creatively decorated using collage techniques. This workshop combines the immediacy of instant photography with the experience of bookbinding, and offers an opportunity to preserve personal memories in a foldable format.
