With different eyes

Cathrin Klingsöhr-Leroy is handing over the management of the Franz Marc Museum in Kochel in May after 15 years. The art historian is planning a personal exhibition entitled "Mit anderen Augen" (24 March to 30 June 2024) for her farewell and has invited three other curator friends: the artist Karin Kneffel, the literary scholar, gender and fashion researcher Barbara Vinken and the art historian Julia Voss. Klingsöhr-Leroy is designing a chapter on the spirituality of plants.

In a "cross-over" of disciplines, the four internationally outstanding protagonists in their respective fields will take a fresh look at the collection and open up new perspectives. Cathrin Klingsöhr-Leroy's farewell exhibition is the starting point of our conversation to talk about her vision of the Franz Marc Museum over the last 15 years, which is also reflected in the current exhibition.

The topicality of this conversation links to the current exhibition
