Whether a musical tone sounds blue, a honking car yellow, whether the tones have a different colour or are just noises, is perceived very differently.
Wassily Kandinsky could "hear" colours and "see" sounds. In a new pictorial language, he concentrated on the emotional power of colour and form. Even the invisible could become visible in the picture, a chord turned purple, a piano note became a square.
Johann Sebastian Bach passed picturesque mountains and idyllic forests on his walks and painted baroque landscapes with colour. Mountains, forests and streams also inspired the Munich painters Margret Kube and Magda Bittner-Simmet. Can you hear sounds and noises when looking at their colourful paintings? Is autumn loud or quiet, is it red or green? Do the mountains sound like an organ piece or a cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach?
After a guided tour suitable for children, they will create their own works of art in a subsequent workshop.

Magda Bittner-Simmet Stiftung
The Künstlerinnenhaus am Schwabinger Bach was built in 1972. The spacious studio flat of the Munich artist Magda Bittner-Simmet was located on the top floor. The studio became a social meeting place where parties and house concerts were regularly organised. Today, the former studio flat houses the AtelierMuseum with the artist's estate.
