THE LIFE OF THINGS
The exhibition is entirely devoted to the many and varied objects of the Museum Humpis-Quartier, most of which are otherwise hidden in the museum's depot. The exhibition typography uses a wide variety of fonts to interpret the wide range of these objects and, in certain areas, the loss of the collection by dissolving the typeface down to a few thin strokes. The two-tone colour concept creates strong creative contrasts to the surroundings, both in external communication and in the exhibition. A staged depot with index cards, speaking portraits and stations where the visitors can become active bring the exhibition to life.

GENDER.POWER.MUSIC
Since the #metoo movement, the topic of gender equality has become visible in public discussion. But has it also arrived in society and its individual subsectors? What does gender justice actually have to do with jazz, and why is it an issue for jazz musicians? The publication of the German Jazz Union »Gender.Power.Music. Gender Justice in Jazz« examines and illuminates these questions.

JAZZWOCHE HANNOVER 2019
This year's motto is »Playing across borders« and it has created an experimental field for exploring borders in jazz music and at the same time questioning how political music can be. 3600 m of printed tape were used to playfully stick on posters and venues and to cut through the word »border« again and again. The visual identity is based on the idea of society as a construction site, it is co-designed, torn, sorted and reassembled again, while playing a lot of music! Get out of the comfort zone!

ENSEMBLE SOZUSINGEN
It's getting dark, vision's waning. The feeling for time and space becomes blurred. The only thing that is sharpened is the sense of hearing! In its vocal performance »dämmerts?«, the ensemble appeals to open ears, to people who listen to themselves and the people around them, and thus to fundamental questions of social togetherness.

THE OBLIGATION OF OWNERSHIP —
AN ART COLLECTION UNDER SCRUTINY
Is this looted art? The staff of Zeppelin Museum Friedrichshafen has been asking themselves this critical question in view of their collections and have been digging deeper into their own history. At the first view the exhibition architecture shows a classical art presentation. At a second glance the visitors can see behind the scenary and learn about the stories behind certain objects, see how connections of important art dealers are drawn and dive into their multilayered histories which are shown on a mix of semitransparent and opaque materials.

GURLITT: STATUS REPORT —
AN ART DEALER IN NAZI GERMANY
In the exhibition at the Gropius Bau, the Bundeskunsthalle Bonn and the Kunstmuseum Bern traces the twists and turns of Hildebrand Gurlitt’s career. The colour palette were carefully chosen in relation to the paintings and remind one of the colour ranges of Le Corbusier or classical art gallery colours. They are giving a strong contrast to the black and white exhibition architecture. Spacious typographic titles provide orientation. A recurring timeline gives insight to the historical background. The exhibition closes with the impressive »Werkstatt Provenienz« where visitors can research themselves.

INNOVATIONS! DESTINATION: FUTURE
The exhibition is looking back at the innovative potential of the enterprises in the concern founded by Count Zeppelin, while it also looks to the future and illustrates the strategies the businesses developed to remain marketable and globally successful. Two crossing path – innovation and hands-on path – guide the visitors through the exhibition. The exhibition steps range from airship travel and lightweight construction in aluminium to the construction of satellites and components for space travel. Like newspaper headlines texts and pictures are floating around and explore the innovative potential of the groundbreaking objects. The whole exhibition architecture is built of OSB and staged as a »maker lab«. In contrast atmospherical projections on high-gloss mirrors underline the innovative high-tech character of the objects and put them into context.
