Horses. From Albrecht Dürer to Hans Erni to the present day
Overview
Intro
Art, cultural and natural history exhibition on the relationship between man and horse with works of art from Albrecht Dürer to the present day
In the summer exhibition of the Hans Erni Museum 2025, Heinz Stahlhut, Director of the Hans Erni Museum, and Britta Allgöwer, former Director of the Lucerne Nature Museum and President of the Academia Raetica, Graubünden, weave the many aspects of the horse into a picture of art, culture and natural history. The motif of the horse in Erni's oeuvre, accompanied by works by other artists from different eras, is particularly important. Aspects of the horse's developmental history, biology, behavior, breeding and forms of use are also highlighted.
The exhibition "Horses" is intended as a small homage to our most faithful companions and enablers of our own development. Heinz Stahlhut and Britta Allgöwer dare to take stock of this millennia-old human-animal relationship and at the same time invite visitors to the exhibition to explore their relationship to the horse - and to mobility.
