...Back to the Future! Exhibiting the Werner Nekes Collection

Following the acquisition of the Werner Nekes Collection, all three participating institutions developed concepts for presenting it to a wider audience. The DFF - Deutsches Filminstitut & Filmmuseum in Frankfurt has installed a section in its existing permanent exhibition in which changing exhibition themes can be presented with objects from the collection. Exhibition curator Stefanie Plappert introduces it. (Translation TWS)
