Village fiction? Between pixels and brushstrokes (2020)
Multimedia exhibition from 14 to 30 May
Date: 14 - 30 May 2020
Location: Oldenburg State Library and at www.fiktiondorf.weebly.com
Villages are everywhere in everyday life: when shopping for products in the supermarket, reading a book or playing games on your smartphone. To what extent do these representations characterise the personal "village image"? How are they used in different media genres to create certain impressions? These and other questions are addressed in the exhibition "Fiction Village? Between pixels and brushstrokes".
The multimedia exhibition will take place from 14 to 30 May in the Oldenburg State Library and on the associated website www.fiktiondorf.weebly.com. The Oldenburg State Library will be transformed into a village square, highlighting various aspects of the theme. Visitors will not only gain insights into different areas such as art, gaming, advertising and literature, but will also be able to actively contribute to the exhibition themselves.
In order to limit contact, the supporting programme and educational formats have been adapted to the current circumstances and are taking place digitally. If it is not possible to enter the Oldenburg State Library due to current contact restrictions, visitors will find all the content of the exhibition digitally on the website.
The interdisciplinary exhibition is being conceived and organised by the 2018 class of the "Museum and Exhibition" Master's degree programme at the University of Oldenburg.
Admission to the exhibition in the Oldenburg State Library and a visit to the website are free of charge.
