Who doesn't know them: the little square books? Entire generations have grown up with these life-long books. PIXIs are bedtime reading, comforting, Advent calendar content, Easter, Christmas or birthday presents. But above all, a PIXI is the first book that many children choose for themselves. Just in time for the Christmas season, the Literaturhaus is opening a large exhibition of PIXI books for all bookworms young and old. An exhibition to browse, leaf through, look at and read. And to go with it: Read-aloud program, hands-on stations and more.
With over 3,000 different titles and 14 million books sold every year, "PIXI" is the most comprehensive picture book series of all time. The first PIXI book was published in Germany in 1954 with the title "Miezekatzen" - and the series will be 70 years old in 2024. The format has not changed in 70 years, but the content and illustrations reflect social developments over this period. Per Hjald Carlsen's goal is as relevant today as it was 70 years ago: Every child should have access to and enjoy books.
An exhibition for all young and old book fans at the Literaturhaus München!
A cooperation with the Altonaer Museum, Stiftung Historische Museen Hamburg, & Carlsen Verlag // with the kind support of the "Freunde und Förderer des Literaturhauses München" // Media partner: KITZ Magazin
