FAKT – FAKE

The Würzburg University Library has like all libraries always been confronted with questions about reliability of sources and scientific work. Numerous unique special objects from its collections illustrate that yesterday's facts are today's fakes. The key visual shows precisely this transition, it irritates with the central, large lettering, which initially looks like a mistake and thus generates attention. The nebulous, blurred transition reflects the core of the exhibition and shows that a clear separation of facts and fakes is not always possible. This visual idea is continued to all elements of the exhibition design.
