Δ GUIDED TOUR

“GREEN SKY, BLUE GRASS. Colour Coding Worlds”

with Iris Loew

Our world is full of colour, but do all cultures see it in the same way? While the scientific basis for perception is identical for everyone, light waves can’t really explain how we name our impressions of colour, the number (and kind) of categories we divide these colours into, or the meanings and associations we ascribe to them.

Touring the exhibition Iris Loew shows how perception of colour sometimes differs enormously depending on the language and culture involved.

Δ “RED IN FOCUS”

Theme related guided tour with Oliver Hahn (research assistent Oceania collection)

In many cultures, the colour red plays a significant role in the way people see the world, whether it is painted on their bodies for beautification and protection, or serves as a sacred colour, or features in the material culture. Consequently, it is a colour that also appears in many different sections of the exhibition “GREEN SKY, BLUE GRASS. Colour Coding Worlds”. 

Oliver Hahn guides through the exhibiton. He investigates the meaning of red as a colour in various cultures by looking at case studies from the Amazon region, New Guinea and Polynesia.

Please register via the booking button “TERMIN BUCHEN”. The number of participants is limited to ten people.

Δ CURATORS’ GUIDED TOUR

“HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT. From Being Rendered Invisible and Becoming Visible”

with Lea Steinkampf (guest curator, assistant in the Visual Anthropology department)

“Hidden in Plain Sight” provides an opportunity to see or hear things from (potentially) unfamiliar perspectives. Combining objects from the collection with five artistic responses, the exhibition takes a critical stance to colonialism and the associated consequences, which are still felt today. 

Lea Steinkampf will take you through the exhibition. Her main focus will be on her curatorial contribution “Thesaurus – Politiken des Suchens und Findens” (Thesaurus – Policies for Searching and Finding). She talks about her work in the picture archive and takes three visual objects as case studies in order to look at the archival practices of arranging, labelling and classifying.
