Brigands
Everyone knows them - pretty much everyone likes them.
Bandits are already omnipresent and popular in children's stories. What fascinates us about these characters who behave as if there are no rules for them and who nevertheless (or precisely because of this) have our sympathy?
That doesn't make them harmless. Nor are they all equally skilled, brave, or successful. Their predatory motivations and methods differ. And usually there is a happy ending for them only in the stories. In the exhibition you will meet old acquaintances and get to know new brigand characters, encounter invented as well as real heists in imaginary forests as well as at places in and around Riehen.
An atmospheric exhibition for children and adults.
