Details
The exhibition "A city changes the festival - The garden shows 1907, 1975 and 2023." focuses on the changes in the garden shows in Mannheim. In a plant showroom, the three garden shows are juxtaposed in a spatial setting. In the middle of the room, a prism made up of individual parts unfolds, the three sides of which each present the time layers 1907, 1975 & 2023. The honeycomb cardboard carrier material is light, environmentally friendly & recyclable. Large hanging flags visualize the impressions from the respective time layers.
The Jury‘s Statement
The exhibition design describes change over time, combining historical and modern elements with an environmentally friendly design material. The sculptural use of honeycomb cardboard provides a visual juxtaposition of the garden festival cultures in Mannheim, creating an immersive experience that is both informative and aesthetically pleasing.
