Prinzip Held*

Key visual & exhibition graphics
for Rimini Protokoll

Heroes and heroines are not born, they are made. The exhibition Prinzip Held* at the Museum of Military History in Gatow uses 44 case studies from the Collaborative Research Centre (SFB) 948 at the University of Freiburg to examine which ‘building blocks’ are involved in this process.

The grid-like exhibition typography emphasises the systemic approach. The fact that heroisation is made is expressed in the key visual, which also refers to the exhibition's interactive inflatable.
