Exhibition of Prince Pückler in England, Bad Muskau Modular exhibition system as a microarchitectural implantation to revitalize historical buildings
Our modular exhibition system offers the visitor the opportunity to discover the creative and pragmatic development process of the unique Muskau Park based on the correspondence between Prince Hermann von Pückler during his trip to England and Ireland in 1826-28 and Princess Lucie. Organic growth as a central element in garden art as well as the fragmentary nature associated with it, perfection and imperfection, life as a continuous process of change and development are universal themes that find expression in this exhibition sculpture. The modular object made of maple wood condenses the individual subject areas in a unique spatially self-sufficient quality: the three protagonists Prince Pückler, his wife Lucie and Rehder, the gardener, have their say; the garden itself and the planned buildings.
Using a color concept, the visitor finds orientation to the content and can immerse himself in the topics depending on his own interests. On both a visual and a content level, it is pulled from the outside in by the object, which is in dialogue with the surrounding interior and exterior space. The creative process in the design and structure of the microarchitectural implantation in the New Palace, combined with the creative process of Pückler’s unique garden design in Muskau, which is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, creates a unique overall artistic exhibition experience for the visitor. The organic growth of an idea, the landscape garden, becomes understandable in the interplay between architecture and the exhibition theme.
