Curator’s Tour – Isaac Julien: PLAYTIME
Philipp Bollmann, curator of the Wemhöner Collection, will give a tour of the exhibition "Isaac Julien: PLAYTIME" that he curated. The show focuses on Playtime, a film that Isaac Julien presented for the first time five years after the profound global financial and banking crisis in 2008. Celebrated for his compelling lyrical films and his video art installations, Isaac Julien is one of the leading artists working in film and video today.
In Playtime Julien addresses a fundamental question: can capital be rendered visible? The prelude of the exhibition forms a series of large scale photographs that were made in close relation to the film itself. During the guided tour, participants will have the opportunity to talk directly with the curator and ask questions about the work.

International Museum Day: A Happy Museum
On the occasion of this year’s International Museum Day, whose motto is “Happy Museum,” we ask our visitors: What makes you happy in a museum?
At 11:30 am we will offer families a guided tour through the exhibition The Struggle of Memory along with a workshop. At 3 pm, you can learn more about selected artworks from all exhibitions at the PalaisPopulaire in a one-hour guided tour. In addition to creative impulses, a relaxed musical atmosphere awaits you on the terrace, weather permitting. LePopulaire restaurant will be open and so you can also enjoy the day’s culinary delights.
Traces of memory
Accompanying the PalaisPopulaire's current exhibition, The Struggle of Memory, Uslar & Rai is presenting four exciting new publications that once again focus on how much our lives are shaped by our memories.
What do we remember? And what do we only think we remember? What have we forgotten? And what do we want to forget? Memories are subjective and beyond our control. Yet they help determine how we think and act and perceive the world. While this unresolvable conflict causes a lot of confusion, at the same time it is the seed for great stories.
As always, read aloud by a professional “voice.”

Art and its Market
Dirk Boll and Silke Hohmann in conversation
Five years after the profound global financial crisis, Isaac Julien released Playtime in 2013, which has hardly lost any of its relevance today. In his film installation Playtime, Julien presents different protagonists of international capital flows. With the appearance of an art dealer and an auctioneer, Julien focuses on the relationship between art and capital.
Hardly any other market system has changed as profoundly in the last decade as the art market. The role and influence of museums and private collectors, art critics, and influencers, as well as new forms of digital art and marketing channels are in constant flux.
Dirk Boll, a member of the board of Christie’s London, and journalist Silke Hohmann discuss the rapidly changing art market.
