Ausstellung

Exhibition "Ulm School of Design. From the zero hour to 1968"

Organiser Museum Ulm:

In the building of the former Ulm School of Design, the permanent exhibition of the HfG Archive provides comprehensive information about the history and projects of the legendary HfG Ulm.
Founded in 1953 by Inge Aicher-Scholl, Otl Aicher and Max Bill, the HfG Ulm made design history until its closure in 1968.
Iconic designs such as the "Ulm Stool", the "TC 100" stacking tableware and the "SK 4" radio-phono combination by Braun, which became famous as "Snow White's Coffin", were created here.
The "ulmer model" developed at the HfG, a design concept based on science and technology, continues to set standards today.
At the same time, the university, born out of an anti-fascist mindset, adhered to the conviction that democracy in Germany could be firmly anchored in the consciousness of the younger generation through education and training.
The exhibition covers around 275 square meters and shows more than 200 exhibits and numerous photographs from the extensive holdings of the HfG Archive in Ulm.
The history of the HfG can only be experienced in Ulm in this dense selection and in the particularly appealing context of the historic university building.

Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Admission: 5 euros regular / 4 euros reduced. Admission is free on the 1st Friday of every month!

Every 1st Sunday of the month, at 3 pm, there is a public guided tour of the permanent exhibition (except Easter Sunday).
Participation 3 Euro per person, without registration.
