How a masterpiece is created
Overview
Intro
An educational exhibition with interactive stations for young and old to learn about the creation and use of Greek ceramics.
The Antikenmuseum has a vase collection that is famous for its quality and variety far beyond the borders of Switzerland. Greek pottery, with its beautiful shapes and elaborate decorations, is truly fascinating. The creations offer an insight into the lives, customs and beliefs of an ancient people and their culture. But how were such masterpieces created in antiquity, and what were they used for? The new didactic exhibition for young and old presents the diversity of Greek vases and shows how they were made and how they were used. Numerous vessels have been preserved, thanks to the robustness and durability of fired clay. The final part of the exhibition provides information about the work of archaeologists and how the pottery exhibits were found.
