An exhibition experience with friction and charm
Walking through the rooms of the Town Hall, visitors experience not a quiet ticking off of wall panels, but a cultural field of tension with plenty to talk about. This is exactly the strength of this format: The exhibition relies on comparison, irritation, and recognition. Exhibited objects can range from a roaring stag to a memento from grandmother's living room, turning the tour into a lively piece of art education.
