Frankfurt, Deutsche Romantik-Museum and Dialogmuseum renovated

(by Marzia Apice) (ANSA) – FRANKFURT SUL MENO, NOV 13 – The period of German Romanticism investigated as a whole, from manuscripts to graphics, from paintings to musical scores to everyday objects; and then the extraordinary opportunity to experience inclusion through the fascinating discovery of what cannot be seen: with the reopening of the Deutsche Romantik-Museum and the renewal of the Dialogmuseum, the cultural offer of Frankfurt is enriched, a city that puts the art at the center of citizens’ life by promoting the connection with their own history. After 10 years of work, the Deutsche Romantik-Museum – the first in the world dedicated to the period of German Romanticism seen from an overall perspective – reopens its doors to the public by presenting its extraordinary collection in an unpublished story. Three floors, 25 rooms and about 1200 square meters (in addition to the splendid skyline of the German city visible on the fourth floor of the museum) welcome unique artistic testimonies, such as the manuscripts of Clemens and Bettine Brentano, Novalis and his brother Schlegel, but also the writings of Joseph von Eichendorff and the manuscript of Tiek’s famous short story “Des Lebens Überfluss” (author known in Italy for his short stories “Puss in Boots” and “Bluebeard”), as well as Schumann’s drafts for the composition “Faust” by Goethe. Among the paintings, the “Evening Star” by Friedrich, “Incubo” by Füssli and the paintings by Carus, alongside the prints by Runge and many others. Empathy and inclusion in an experience capable of stimulating the five senses are instead at the center of the Dialogmuseum, an excellent example of a social enterprise that enhances the strength and talent of disadvantaged people, now completely renewed: in the exhibition “Dialogue in the dark – exhibition for discovering the invisible “, the concept of which was developed thirty years ago, small groups of visitors are led by blind or visually impaired people through various rooms in an exciting and suggestive itinerary. But those who visit Frankfurt at this time of the year will also have another opportunity not to be missed: until the end of January, in fact, the historic Städel Museum hosts the great exhibition “Rembrandt in Amsterdam”, which documents the years of the formation of the famous painter in the Dutch city, thanks to important loans from the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin, the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, the National Gallery in London, the Prado Museum in Madrid and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC (ANSA ).
