Kaufrausch. Konsum und Warenwelten der 1980er Jahre
In the organizer's words:
A special exhibition on the 1980s.
The lifestyle of the 1980s included a consumerism fuelled by flashy advertising and a colourful variety of goods from fashion, leisure, design and entertainment technology: shoulder pads and "mullet" hairstyles, aerobics, Memphis style and Neue Deutsche Welle were the hot trends, while Commodore 64, Atari, Pacman and Super Mario revolutionized the world of electronics and media. Global retail groups were constantly expanding their product ranges with new brands. The consumer goods boom also reached the municipal level, such as Kiel's city center, where new chain stores and the post-modern Sophienhof shopping mall lured shoppers.
The exhibition "Kaufrausch. Konsum und Warenwelten der 1980er Jahre" traces this development with over 300 exhibits from the collection of the Kieler Stadt- und Schifffahrtsmuseum and historical photos.
A cooperation project with the Muthesius Academy of Fine Arts and Design explores how the next generation dealt with the history of consumption in the 1980s; students from the Industrial Design course present their work in small interventions within the exhibition and in the Menne Gallery next to the museum.
