THE PLAYGROUND PROJECT
DAM Deutsches Architekturmuseum Schaumainkai 43, Frankfurt am Main, Hessen, DeutschlandBetween 1950 and 1980 the playground was a creative laboratory. In the cities of the Global North, innovative, crazy and exciting projects emerged: Landscape architects, artists, activists and citizens wanted to provide children with the best place for play and try out a new approach to community and city at the same time. Starting with the pioneers of new playground concepts in the first half of the 20th century, The Playground Project brings the wealth of this period to life — with images, models, plans, books and numerous films, but also with playground sculptures for climbing, sliding and hiding. Everybody, be they children, parents, playground planners, teachers, architects or students, is welcome to discover the playground of yesterday and to consider those of tomorrow. The Playground Project was curated by Gabriela Burkhalter for the Kunsthalle Zürich, updated and complemented for the DAM.

Schaumainkai 43, Frankfurt / M., Hessen, DeutschlandSpielplätze fotografieren mit einer alten Fototechnik
Spielplätze sind eine eigene Welt mit einer ungewöhnlichen Architektur. Im Gegensatz zu Häusern sind Spielgeräte offen. Sie gehen manchmal weit in den Raum hinein, und wir können in ihnen herumklettern, hinein sehen und hindurch sehen. Mit selbstgebauten Weitwinkel Lochkameras - die besonders viel Raum aufnehmen - erforschen wir diese sonderbare Welt.
