Children's and youth reporter Noah in the LUDWIGGALERIE

August 21, 2020
As we have often reported,
The LUDWIGGALERIE team always operates on several tracks. When one exhibition
has just opened, we are already planning the next one. 
The department
Marketing and exhibition communication has a forward-looking view for
the theme of the following show, which is called “Räuber Hotzenplotz,
Krabat and The Little Witch. Otfried Preußler – character creator and
Storytellers”. So it happened some time ago that the director
Caroline Tillmann-Schumacher's department noticed an article in the WAZ.
Children and youth reporter Noah recommended the book on the children’s page of the WAZ
“Krabat” by Otfried Preußler. “One is used to such slogans,” says
she said, “Preußler, Krabat, I immediately thought: something must be done!”
Caroline Tillmann-Schumacher immediately contacted the editorial team and invited Noah
to the museum for your own exclusive visit behind the scenes of a
exhibition production. 
At this point, the curator of the exhibition,
Linda Schmitz-Kleinreesink. After an introductory talk, we went to the
“holy halls”, where she had already made the drawings for the youth novel “Krabat”
These have already been framed, so that Noah can
professionally with white gloves, even into his own hands.

“It was a great honor for me,”
Noah tells us in an interview, “It doesn’t happen every day that
you get such an insight. It was definitely very exciting, because I
I don’t usually go to the museum.”
 

The student used to like to
drawn, “Characters from cartoons that I have watched or
landscapes."
When asked what motivated him
When asked to write a Krabat recommendation, he replies: “I liked the
Story Krabat the Mystical – how the protagonist was called in a dream.
It is not set in the present day, today people no longer believe
Many people believe in ghosts. But people have done this in the past, so
everything fits so well. And the drawings made it even easier to get into
the story. That is why I would recommend everyone to read the
edition of the book, in which more of it is printed. Sometimes you know
yes, maybe not, how a situation is constructed in the book and so
you can get a better picture.”
