"The strings in the hand. A journey into the world of marionettes & puppets"

Marionette
This exhibition is available in
German
Special exhibition from 06.10.2025 to 12.07.2027
In this exhibition, pupils show their own designed figures - from hand puppets and marionettes to self-developed characters. Behind every figure is an idea, a story, a thought: sometimes playful, sometimes thoughtful, sometimes surprisingly lively. The works combine craftsmanship with fantasy, theater with reflection. It is about movement - not only externally through threads and hands, but also internally: through creative processes, personal themes and narrative depth.
Immerse yourself in a world of fabric, wood, wire - and thoughts that have taken shape in figures.
