*Temporary illusions exhibition VERTRICKST! in Eberbach Abbey:

Inclined planes, mirror rooms, whimsical birds: from September 24, 2022, everything in the Abbey Museum of Eberbach Abbey will revolve around the theme of optical illusions. For one year, the varied illusions exhibition “VERTRICKST!” shows the beginnings of perception research with moving images and kaleidoscopes as well as innovative techniques of augmented reality.

More than 100 exhibits ranging from historical originals to pictures by Mexican artist Yunuen Esparza (born 1975), which only come to life with the right app on a smartphone, take guests young and old on an entertaining tour of optical adventures. The exciting experiences as well as numerous display boards simultaneously impart knowledge about visual phenomena. Room-in-room installations send visitors into dizzyingly slanted rooms or let them become part of surprising spheres and large-format painting prints. In a black-light room, magical 3-D worlds by artist Martin Hartmann (born 1980) peel out of the darkness.
