My 1871. traces, fates, stories
The Bourbaki Panorama's message of peace remains undisputedly relevant to this day. The immense circular painting traces personal fates and political events and provides a wealth of insights into the history of everyday life, art, culture and the media. It tells hundreds of stories about the internment of the Bourbaki Army in 1871 and inspires reflection - about the past as well as the present.
In the current in-depth exhibition "My 1871. Traces, fates, stories", visitors experience the events of the internment at first hand, following in the footsteps of the young villager Joséphine, the soldier's horse Feuille and the Red Cross helper and later painter of the circular painting Edouard Castres. At interactive stations, you can lend a hand yourself and form a concrete idea of the events using original memorabilia and the impressive panoramic film.
The updated in-depth exhibition provides detailed insights into the internment of the Bourbaki Army in 1871 and is accompanied by a rich program of guided tours and events.
Panoramic film:
The film, projected onto a circular shell, dissolves the 16-cornered wall structure of the building. A contemporary mass medium itself, the film transports the significance of the panoramic image into the present without competing with it. The film deepens the historical theme and presents additional details and information. Individual fates and the solidarity of the Swiss population are brought closer to the viewer, as is the creation of the picture. The unusual visual and audio experience in the picture room, complemented by the immersion in the exhibition one floor below, leaves a lasting impression on visitors.
