Next we drove to the Grimm Museum on the other side of town. There was a special exhibit there now from Czechia having to do with puppets and fairy tales and imagination. It was fantastic. We loved it. It was whimsical and fun and so creative. We couldn’t tell if the crafted items were old or made in today’s world to look old. It felt like old world folk art. The exhibits were really fantastic. The grandkids would’ve LOVED it.
IMAGINARIUM
An exhibition about the artistic cosmos of the theater of the Forman brothers and their friends.
In the GRIMMWELT, a large-scale installation is being created consisting of theater sets, playful objects, inventions, dreamy rooms and impressive installations that transport visitors into a fantasy, dream and fairytale world. The interactive exhibits are made of wood and mechanical elements that create a haptic and sensory experience.
The artistic installations revive the joy of craftsmanship and invite you to marvel, participate and be creative. “The gift of imagination gives us the opportunity to be unique. The fascination of handcrafted objects is our focus. “The play and enchantment through simple and beautiful things, the world of theatre, inventions, toys, dolls or everyday objects are the theme and content of our installation,” says curator Matěj Forman.
In its new special exhibition from May 9 to October 13, 2024, the GRIMMWELT Kassel brings the cosmos and art of the Czech puppet and traveling theater and the associated fairy tales and stories to life.
The fairytale, fantastic and mysterious backdrops of the Forman brothers’ theater invite visitors to explore and explore in a playful way. Participation and experimentation are expressly encouraged in the IMAGINARIUM exhibition!
