Opening hours: daily from 9.00 am to 6.00 pm, New Palace, Herrenchiemsee
The Bavarian State Exhibition 2011, organized by the Center for Bavarian
History , is presenting a modern perspective on King Ludwig II in the “Rohbauräumen”,
an area of Castle Herrenchiemsee which will be accessible
to the public for the fi rst time. The exhibition is almost reminiscent of a
modern theatre production featuring a scenographic succession of spaces,
similar to a series of stage designs. The creatively presented exhibition
spans from Ludwig II’s dreams and art to his wars and mythos, using excerpts
from the well-known Ludwig fi lms of the 20th Century.
The State Exhibition employs cutting-edge media to bring Ludwig II’s story
to life. Computer artists like the Ramirez Perez brothers, shooting stars of
the YouTube Generation, were invited to design contemporary spaces that
still remain true to the period - inspired by the theatrical, artistic décor
of Ludwig II’s “illusion machine”. The King’s unrealized dreams are then
presented in full glory in 3D simulations.
