Summary
"Exhibitions at the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum are opportunities for society to reflect upon itself--a kind of stage where themes are always mounted, interpreted, and presented. Over the past twenty-five years, the 'museum of humanity' has continuously focused on a remarkable variety of present-day themes: from happiness and passion; to sex, death, sports, and dance; to the climate, migration, work, language, or shame. This diverse range of subjects requires constant consideration of the opportunities involved in producing exhibitions, as well as of the expansion of the term 'exhibition.' In numerous essays and pictures of the installations, this volume traces the history of the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum. Exhibition organizers analyze their shows at the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum and contemplate the major strategies of curating and exhibiting"--Publisher's website.
