What happens when you pit toy vehicles from all eras against each other? Why are some dolls cute, others scary? And what can toys reveal about people and the ideals of their time?
Mark Dion’s fantastic productions of toys from the collection of the Stadtmuseum Berlin arouse such a wealth of feelings and associations that they really do seem capable of producing delirium. In this guided tour, you will learn which values, role models and ideologies toys have conveyed at different times and why the toy collection of the Stadtmuseum Berlin is so special.
This guided tour will be held in English.
