Experience Art Differently: Discover Adolf Schinnerer with All Senses

The Erlangen City Museum invites you to a playful and sensory museum visit in the exhibition Seen Anew – Adolf Schinnerer. A specially developed experience bag opens up new access to painting, graphics, and etching for children, families, and curious art enthusiasts.

Artwork Observation Becomes a Sensory Experience

The experience bag makes the exhibition visit interactive. Perception, movement, and discovery connect with the observation of the artworks. This creates an aesthetic experience that sharpens the eye and makes the exhibition atmosphere perceptible in a playful way.

Adolf Schinnerer Seen Anew

The focus is on the versatile work of the artist Adolf Schinnerer, born in 1876 in Schwarzenbach an der Saale. As a painter, graphic artist, illustrator, and art writer, he influenced the art history of the region. From 1904 to 1910, Schinnerer lived and worked in Tennenlohe, where he developed an independent visual language between Impressionist landscape perception, expressive graphics, and literary imagination.

Landscapes, Etchings, and Vibrant Colors

The exhibition presents more than a hundred paintings and graphic works, including views from Franconia and Tennenlohe. Schinnerer's paintings, often executed in a few vibrant colors, focus on nature, rural surroundings, and human figures. His intaglio etchings and extraordinary etching cycles express special power, revealing dark and disturbing sides as well.

Cultural Education for Curious Visitors

The experience bag complements the art historical curation with a low-threshold access to cultural education. It invites visitors to perceive details, read image spaces differently, and explore their own reactions to shapes, lines, light, and materials. This transforms the museum visit into an intergenerational art experience.

Conclusion: Experience the Exhibition Live

Experience Art Differently combines intensive artwork observation with playful discovery. Visitors can expect an inspiring approach to Adolf Schinnerer's landscape painting and graphics, as well as an exhibition atmosphere that connects seeing, thinking, and feeling. Anyone wanting to discover regional art history from a new perspective should experience this special art event live at the Erlangen City Museum.
