Students develop audio guide for children

Do you know David? No? David is a rather droll little bluebird. He recently started guiding children through the exhibition "Marc Chagall - from Witebsk to Paris" in Apolda. Together with students of the University of Erfurt, the "Kunstverein Avantgarde" has set up the project "Audio Guide for Children", which has just celebrated its premiere.

The young visitors to the "Kunsthaus" can now go on their own little journey together with the artist Marc Chagall. "The project was developed in the summer semester with students in a seminar on art education and art mediation," explains Prof. Ulrike Stutz from the University of Erfurt, who has already developed several offers of digital art mediation in exhibitions in Apolda and Erfurt with students. For the current Chagall exhibition, in addition to the on-site audio tour, an explanatory film on lithography and an interactive online audio guide were created, in which the images are accompanied by spoken texts and music. Different sequences of the "tour" can be chosen, so that the children can always experience their journey with the artist in a new way.
