Wish List - Collection
The exhibition Wish List - Collection explores the manifold relationships between works of art and their viewers – as reservoirs of stories and mediums of personal experience.
The relationships we cultivate with works of art can touch us both personally and socially. Art stimulates thought and critical reflection, can serve as a repository for stories, as a mirror of society or of our own feelings and experiences, and helps us to connect with others. This exhibition is about the connections that exist between the works of art and the people who engage with them in their own way: be it in everyday interaction, at work or in more casual encounters. Selected individuals who are connected with the Heinrich Gebert Kulturstiftung's collection or who shape public life in Appenzell and the surrounding area through their social and cultural commitment are invited to choose a work from the collection. This lively selection forms the starting point for an exhibition of the collection and connects people directly with the works.
