„Alter! Grafik aus fünf Jahrhunderten“
In the organizer's words:
Wise, stubborn or frail - there are very different ideas about old people. How do such contradictory associations come about? Who or what is considered old and why? Positive and negative depictions of the end of life have been discussed in art and philosophy since ancient times. This shows that age(ing) is relative. Cultural background, gender and social status all play a role. In Europe, men are usually portrayed as kind and experienced, while women are more often depicted as aged.
The exhibition shows prints from the early modern period to the 20th century, including works by Albrecht Dürer, Hans Baldung Grien, Käthe Kollwitz and Pablo Picasso. Hands-on stations invite visitors to engage with their own ageing process and question social stereotypes.
