Background
Following the great success of gewerkdesign’s exhibition »Oh Yeah – Pop Music in Switzerland« at the Museum of Communication in Bern, the exhibition’s content and design were adapted to Germany. Now designed as a travelling exhibition, its first venue is the Focke-Museum in Bremen. The exhibition presents more than 90 years of German pop music in the set design of a radio show: from the 1920s Swing to the Beat era, Punk, Neue Deutsche Welle, Techno and Hip Hop up to the present. Equipped with headphones, the visitors can listen into a rich variety of songs. Many acoustic and film stations offer a journey into their very own musical history. Produced by gewerkdesign and supervised by the same team as in Bern, the travelling exhibition was set up in Bremen between September 2016 and July 2017. Its next venues are Frankfurt a.M. (17.08.17 to 25.02.18), Berlin (15.03. to 16.09.18), Leipzig and Stuttgart.
