Film posters

In cooperation with Kino Méliès Immerse yourself in film history! This month, the MÉLIÈS is a guest at the Kunsthaus and will be showing a selected surprise film - one whose poster is hanging in the exhibition, of course! During an informative half-hour guided tour, there will first be an overview of film poster art of the 50s-70s and perhaps also the opportunity to guess the title of the surprise film in advance. The film itself can then be enjoyed afterwards in the Forum (top floor)...

In the current exhibition, not only film posters are shown, but also short excerpts, so-called "trailers". Music plays a very important and exciting role in film. The music is often composed especially for the respective film and adapts to the desired mood. In the exhibition, we can already consider what kind of music might suit which poster. Is it friendly or gloomy music? Are there hectic or slow sound effects? Using films that are also playing in the exhibition, we try to create a new soundt...

These are called "trailers" and serve as advertising. First we look at posters of films in the exhibition that were made in or near Göttingen. Some films are even set in Göttingen. In the creative room, you will create a short trailer about Göttingen together as a family using simple animation methods. What absolutely has to be in the short clip? ...

Karl-Heinz Fehrecke designed posters that achieved a high circulation. In the workshop we emulate the artist and graphic designer and design our own posters by drawing pictures and combining them with text. A short guided tour of Karl-Heinz Fehrecke is included and serves as an impulse for our own creative work. Partic...

Take part in a journey back in time to film productions and the corresponding posters in post-war Germany, which impressively illuminates the ushering in of a new era in film and contemporary history from the 1950s onwards on the basis of three significant film institutions or advertising designers. Whether world-class international productions, classic German films of the 1920s, or flicks whose ideas originated in Göttingen, the posters on display remarkably illustrate a socially dynamic perio...
