Artist’s Talk with Lucia Tallová
On the occasion of her exhibition Moving Clouds, PalaisPopulaire invites visitors to an artist talk with Slovak artist Lucia Tallová, who has been named Deutsche Bank’s Artist of the Year 2026.
In conversation, Tallová will offer insights into her artistic practice, which operates at the intersection of painting, collage, and installation. Drawing on photographs from vintage books and magazines, often combined with found objects, furniture fragments, and natural materials, she creates evocative visual worlds that explore themes of memory, loss, utopia, ecology, modernity, and overlooked female histories.
The artist will talk with Britta Färber, Global Head of Art and Culture at Deutsche Bank and curator of the exhibition, about how the works came about, the themes of the exhibition, and Tallová's artistic perspectives.

DJ Workshop for FLINTA: Transformation in Sound
What does change sound like? Is transformation created by a sudden break or by many small shifts? When does a single beat become a shared groove, an idea a track, listening to a personal artistic statement?
Together with DJ SENU, we embark on a four-hour journey through her musical world. Starting from the theme of Transformation, we explore how music can repeatedly take on new forms through selection, transitions, and rhythm. Participants will learn the basics of DJing and experiment with sound. The workshop invites participants to experience music as a creative process of change: open, playful, and with space for personal ideas. Prior knowledge is not required.

Price: € 20, reduced € 15. Limited capacity. In German.
