The exhibition – curated by Brigitte Reutner-Doneus – is based on Bertolt Brecht’s legendary theatre play Mother Courage and Her Children; the play is set in various locations during the Thirty Years’ War. The main character is inspired by the \u2018land disturber Courasche\u2019 from Hans Jakob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen’s picaresque novel Trutz Simplex from the end of the 17th century. Wachsmuth’s works reflect the effects of violence and war on people. Violence and power are also addressed in the work entitled Saligia: This is a group of bronze casts of human arms symbolising the Seven Deadly Sins – Saligia being an acronym composed of the initial letters of the sins named in Latin. Wachsmuth adopts and alienates theatrical forms in order to find out, in the Brechtian sense, how historical narratives can be deconstructed and their unexploited potential for resistance against authoritarian conditions can be uncovered. To this end, he uses chassis, puppets and hand gestures – and last but not least, an evil spirit also has a hand in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
