20th anniversary
Museum der Moderne celebrates with a young audience
Lots of colorful balloons line the entrance area. An interactive play mat is spread out on the floor. Children crawl around wildly on it before getting a glass of lemonade at the drinking station decorated with streamers. Guitar sounds complete the scenario.
What sounds like a children's birthday party is in fact the 20th anniversary celebration of the Museum der Moderne. The fact that a particularly large number of children and young people were drawn to the Mönchsberg on Friday afternoon was entirely intentional.
"We want to attract more young visitors to our museum over the next 20 years. That's why we are also working more with youth centers. The aim is to convey to children that the museum is a place where they can visit at any time, free of charge," says Harald Krejci, Director of the Museum der Moderne. The museum has already taken a major step in this direction: Admission, including the Mönchsberg elevator, is free for under-19s.
Fear of contact is also unwelcome in the exhibition rooms. In the extended reality installation "Infra-thin Magick" by Paula Strunden, participation is expressly encouraged! The installation immerses visitors in a surreal world, blurring physical and virtual reality.
