Ulm Museum, February 28–July 3, 2016, exhibition

Questions of Faith
Chatrooms at the Dawn of the Modern Era

A joint project between the Ulmer Museum and the Museum of the Bible in Washington D.C., the unique perspective of this exhibit concentrates on similarities of these religious groups.
Rare examples of significant and artistically outstanding manuscripts, paintings, and sculptures from Judaism, Islam, and Christianity are on display to document that theological differences were not only expressed in public discussions but are also reflected in literature and in the visual arts. The exhibition engages also a younger audience with film clips, edgy music videos, and interactive computer games.
