Barock ist mehr als eine Frage des Stils. Die Epoche zwischen 1580 und 1780 ist ein Zeitalter der Kontraste: Opulenz und Innovation auf der einen, Tod und Krisen auf der anderen Seite. In dieser vielgestaltigen Epoche werden Grundsteine unserer modernen Welt gelegt.
Wie sehr wirkt sich diese Zeit heute noch auf uns aus? Welche Parallelen lassen sich zwischen dem Barock und dem Jetzt ziehen?
Zehn Jahre nach ihrem Gespräch im Rahmen der «Sternstunde Philosophie» diskutieren Bice Curiger und Werner Oechslin zusammen mit Juri Steiner über die Kraft des Barock und die Unfassbarkeit dieses ersten globalen Stils.

General information

Baroque is more than a matter of style. This cultural epoch, between 1580 and 1780, was a time of enormous contrasts: opulence and innovation on the one hand, death and crises on the other. Ongoing religious wars and the opening up of global trade networks resulted in power gains and cultural exchange, but there was also famine and exploitation. Switzerland played its part in all this radical change: Swiss architects designed major works throughout Europe, Swiss artists and scientists were part of international networks, clothing and interiors reflected the culture of the French court, and the worldwide circulation of products and knowledge had life-changing impacts. The exhibition presents beautiful objects from Baroque architecture, garden culture, fashion and art, focusing on the historical context of these items in order to illuminate this creative epoch in all its glorious ambiguity.
