FEMME FATALE. Gaze - Power - Gender

Six femmes fatales come to life and answer questions in an automated chat - from their favourite colour to little secrets to the meaning of life!  

You can find the chatbot in the app of the Hamburger Kunsthalle or directly in the exhibition: Scan the QR code on the respective artwork with your smartphone and start chatting!

Use the chatbot in the exhibition to get interesting information in a humorous way. For teachers, the chatbot is also suitable for preparing and following up an exhibition visit with a school class.

In October 2023, the chatbot FEMME FATALE received special recognition as an art and media education school project, the DIETER BAAACKE PRIZE.

The DIETER BAACKE PRIZE is awarded to projects from educational, social and cultural work with children, young people and families throughout Germany. The prize is named after Dieter Baacke (1934-1999), Professor of Education at the University of Bielefeld. He was chairman of the Society for Media Education and Communication Culture from 1984 to 1999. His pedagogically based concept of media literacy continues to inspire science, practice and politics.

CHATTING WITH HELENA VON TROJA, MADONNA, LILITH & CO

In cooperation between the Stadtteilschule am Hafen and the Hamburger Kunsthalle, a chatbot was created on the occasion of the exhibition Femme fatale. Gaze - Power - Gender, a chatbot was created that automatically answers questions from visitors. The six chat personalities make historical references to the artworks and their genesis, but are also freely imagined as fictional characters.

In this way, the contents of the exhibition are to be conveyed to young people in an interesting way and with a contemporary perspective.

For this purpose, 10th grade students studied the exhibition for one semester. They made a selection of works, developed criteria for addressing young people, worked out questions and suggested answers as well as varied visual material.

The technical implementation is done with the help of the assono AI chatbot and uses the artificial intelligence of IBM Watson.
