Our Owl Is Pink
Colourful Stories
24 April 2026 – 24 January 2027
Colours make the world look bright. But do we all perceive and experience them in the same way? In a flight over the museum’s collection, our pink owl spotted a range of colourful objects and now tells their stories in the exhibition. Hands-on stations and a large studio invite viewers to discover colours with all their senses.
Tie-dye
Folded, Stitched, Coloured
4. September 2026 – 25. April 2027
In Japanese, shiboru means to compress or wring, and describes how unique patterns are created by folding, tying, and sewing. Plangi, bandhani, tritik, and adire are other terms used for this technique, also known as tie-dye. On show are cloths from Asia, Europe, Africa, and South America.
GOLD
Its Bright and Dark Sides
Christmas exhibition
19 November 2026 – 10 January 2027
Gold brings a glitter to Christmas trees and precious items. But where there’s light, there’s also shadow. The mining of this precious metal leaves deep scars across the entire world. Pieces of gold from the museum’s collections encounter the voices of those affected by gold mining, offering a new perspective on this special colour.
