The cabinet exhibition follows the tracks of Martin Luther. It presents printed matter from the then-new spirit of the times – from the first printed bible, the “Gutenberg Bible”, which was still written in the Latin language, to the first Bible printed in the German language prior to Luther’s new translation, the “Mentelin Bible”, to the final version by Luther, the “Luther Bible”.
The excursion ‘County of Tecklenburg’ goes to the former County of Tecklenburg, which under Count Konrad became a central area of the Reformation in Westphalia as of 1534.
The perception of art as well as the situation that can arise between an artwork and the person viewing it are the focus of the exhibition.
