Dear Martha Grünenwaldt, If you were still alive, you'd be 112 years old. I'm going in search of you, in search of the memories, the traces of the living and the thousands of paintings you've left behind. Who are these "Russian doll" women with their big, sad eyes and closed mouths? I search and find that your surname means green forest. See you tomorrow.
These few lines introduce "Souvenirs d'un coquelicot", a documentary film directed in 2021 by Manon Pélissier at the initiative of the Paul Duhem Foundation. Manon Pélissier set out to meet Martha Grünenwaldt, a key artist from the Art et marges museum collection, through her drawings and the testimonies of her family.
The screening will be followed by a discussion with the director, Bruno Gérard (former head of the painting workshop at the Centre La Pommeraie and current administrator of the Paul Duhem Foundation) and Gérard Preszow (documentary filmmaker, part of the founding team of Art en Marge, former name of the Art et marges museum).

The approach of our guided tours customized for the group and open to a vulnerable public as well is to delve into the work first and then explore the artist and his or her creative context.
School and extra-curricular visits, as of 4 years of age, customized for the participants (age, level and type of education, etc.) and the context of the visit. Renewed educational material for each visit stimulates the eye and sensitivities of younger children (kindergarten, primary school), whilst interaction takes pride of place for visits by teenagers.
