  "Coups de cœur"

  19H00: Luxembourg on the Rocks, with Hans Fellner (DE) | 23H00: Animals in the city, with Patrick Michaely (LU)

  As in previous years, each museum is offering a special guided tour called "Coup de Cœur." For this year's edition, seven external curators have been invited to present their favorite piece in one of the seven museums. Each of them has taken the time to immerse themselves in the work of their chosen museum, ensuring a thoughtful and engaging presentation. 

  The Musée Dräi Eechelen welcomes the curators Hans Fellner and Patrick Michaely from the National Museum of Natural History.

  Hans Fellner. Originally from the Netherlands, Hans Fellner has been living in Luxembourg since 1993 and is active in various cultural fields. Until 2010, he ran an art bookshop after which he worked as an independent curator and author. From 2020 to 2024, he managed a gallery of contemporary Luxembourgish art. He is the curator behind the exhibition Luxembourg on the Rocks at the National Museum of Natural History.

  Patrick Michaely. Biochemist, former science correspondent and curator of several exhibitions, Patrick Michaely is the director of the National Museum of Natural History since May 2022 after managing its communications department for many years. Passionate about natural history and the natural sciences in general, he is committed to sharing his curiosity for the rich collections of natural history museums and their central role in the study of natural heritage. As an exhibition curator, Patrick Michaely is currently preparing an exhibition on the long and conflict-ridden history of the human-animal relationship.
