Background
Commemorating the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, the national special exhibition was created by gewerkdesign based on the German Historical Museum’s concept. The exhibition not only presents Protestantism’s diversity and the history of its reception and impact, but also its potential for conflict on a global scale by illustrating the global history of the »Luther Effect« with examples from five selected countries. On an area of approx. 3,000 sqm the exhibition assembles outstanding exhibits from national and international lenders, many of which have never before been displayed in Germany. The design concept by gewerkdesign highlights the structural elements of the Martin-Gropius-Bau and playfully integrates into the architecture of its halls, forging an exciting symbiosis with the installation of the German composer and sonic artist Hans Peter Kuhn in the atrium of the Museum.
