Difficult Heritage. The Linden-Museum and Württemberg in Colonialism

Submitted by Caroline Bähr on Tue, 10/20/2020 - 09:55

With the exhibition "Difficult Heritage. The Linden-Museum and Württemberg in Colonialism" the Linden-Museum takes a look at its own history with regard to colonialism and post-colonial issues. Conceived as a summary exhibition of works, it focuses on the process of coming to terms with history through a conscious shifting of perspectives. This basic concept is taken up by the exhibition design. Numerous modules with different creative approaches to the topic are distributed around stands and open fragmentary exhibitions in the rooms of the museum. Empty spaces and breaks in the scenography demonstrate the complexity of dealing with this cultural heritage. At each station, participation is encouraged as well as opportunities for in-depth research and discussion.

Exhibition design: Holzer Kobler Architekturen Zurich/Berlin | Graphic design: 2xGoldstein

Note: The exhibition cannot be opened as planned at the end of November 2020. The new date will be announced in due time.
