Where to Put the Dog? An exhibition about farewell, attachment, and memory

Between Life Companion and Farewell

The exhibition addresses a rarely so openly examined topic area: Pets as familiar companions, grief as a personal experience, and burial culture as a cultural practice. The museum understands these questions historically, artistically, socially, and scientifically. This is precisely where the presentation gains its special depth.

A Space for Art Appreciation and Aesthetic Experience

Visitors encounter an exhibition atmosphere that invites both quiet observation and reflection. Multimedia formats, participatory elements, and thematic impulses bring the presentation to life. The open participation especially fits a place that closely links digital mediation, research, and education.
