Orhan Pamuk. Der Trost der Dinge
In our words:
Have you ever dreamed of immersing yourself in a novel? You currently have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the fascinating literary worlds of Orhan Pamuk. In three-dimensional showcases, the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature interweaves words with reality. Completely new showcases have been created exclusively for the exhibition, which enter into a dialog with art from the Lenbachhaus collection by Paul Klee, Alfred Kubin and Eduard von Grützner.
In the organizer's words:
As the first Turkish winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature (2006), Orhan Pamuk is one of the most important literary and political voices of our time. But the world-famous author has also long been known as an illustrator, photographer, museum founder and curator of objects and memories. In the exhibition "The Consolation of Things", Orhan Pamuk shows 40 cabinets from his Istanbul "Museum of Innocence" and allows them to enter into a dialog with the Lenbachhaus collection. In addition, new works are being created especially for the exhibition, which are interwoven with Pamuk's other novels in an examination of the Lenbachhaus collection and artists such as Paul Klee and Alfred Kubin.
Pamuk's hitherto largely unknown side as a visual artist will be presented to the public for the first time in further series of works. A selection of his paintings, drawings, sketchbooks and notebooks as well as photographs provide a very personal insight into his multi-layered oeuvre.
