Magic Lanterns: A Journey to the Heart of Stories
Before cinema and modern screens, there was a whole world of moving images and optical shows. The magic lantern, which originated in shadow plays, made it possible to project images reproduced on glass plates onto walls. Popularized in the 19th century, its diverse uses—scientific, educational, or entertaining—made it both a practical and amusing object. This temporary exhibition at the 'A Possen' museum highlights these forgotten treasures, witnesses to a time when technology and art came together to captivate, and tells the story of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
