    MUSEUMSUFERFEST
    With guided tours of the exhibition "TRADING STYLE – Weltmode im Dialog" and a public reading of the WELTKULTUREN MAGAZINE.
    Δ MUSEUMSUFERFEST

    WELTKULTUREN MAGAZINE
    Public reading
    in the context of the exhibition “TRADING STYLE – Weltmode im Dialog”
    Friday, 23th August, 8pm
    What is beautiful? Who has style? How is respect gained and why? Over a period of five days a group of teenagers focused together with writer and artist Phyllis Kiehl on the exhibition with the aim of producing a magazine. They took a very close look at the creations of the young fashion labels on display, examined the issue of whether jewellery can be cruel, and learned why it is good to have a stick with you before having your skin tattooed.
    During the Museumsuferfest the teenagers read from their own Weltkulturen Magazine!
    This course was free of charge thanks to the Aventis Foundation cultural initiative “eXperimente”.

    EXHIBITION "TRADING STYLE – Weltmode im Dialog"
    Spanning global street styles through to Black Forest wedding hats and ceremonial dress from the Highlands of New Guinea, TRADING STYLE presents a creative dialogue between over500 historic objects, photographs and films from the Weltkulturen Museum’s collection and new designs by the international fashionlabels: Buki Akib (NG), A Kind of Guise (DE), CassettePlaya (UK) and P.A.M. / Perks and Mini (AU).
