Advertising Graphics from the Collection of Documents of Everyday Culture
April 11 to July 5, 2015. Opening: Friday, April 10, 2015, 7:00 p.m.

Globes, fire extinguishers, drills, cooker hoods, fur coats, roast chickens, rugs, television sets, circles, stripes, lines and colours: The Werkbundarchiv – Museum der Dinge presents a cosmos of pictures of day-to-day life with over 450 graphic advertisements from its collection of documents of everyday culture. Day in and day out, the motifs and forms of a trivial world of consumption and media appear in two-dimensional printed matter. When they land in the recycling bin, their pictures and signs disappear.
