Was habt ihr da! Weil Sammeln Freude macht
In the organizer's words:
Collecting everyday objects is a classic hobby. Not least thanks to shows such as "Bares für Rares", antiques, rarities, vintage items and the associated passion for collecting have been on everyone's lips in recent years. But what drives people to collect things over a long period of time, sometimes their entire lives, and often to invest a lot of money in this collection?
This group sometimes goes public with their collections, spreading the word by word of mouth or visiting collectors' fairs. Others, on the other hand, pursue their passion in secret. It is possible that the item they are collecting is not interesting enough for others. One of the aims of the exhibition is to bring these collectors, in particular, into the public eye.
From garden gnomes to zebra stripes
The spectrum ranges from matchbooks and advertising postcards to pencils, shellac plates and precious porcelain from the Königliche Porzellanmanufaktur Berlin (KPM). Garden gnomes and zebra-striped signs from all over the world are also represented, as are heart-shaped stones, tin toys and death dolls.
The collections cover a period from the early 17th century to the present day. And if one person's passion for collecting is focused on the colorful figures from "My little Pony", the other collects electric guitars from the 1960s and 1970s. Who doesn't think of the wild days of rock music? Rare prints and art from the Kassel Academy in the 1920s, beautifully shaped vases from the 1950s and travel souvenirs with motifs from Kassel: they have all awakened a very personal passion for collecting.
