Museum Description<\/p>\n\n

In 2017, the Hercules of Kassel turns 300, and the Museumslandschaft Hessen Kassel celebrates this anniversary with a major special exhibition at Wilhelmsh\u00f6he Palace. The exhibition is divided into two sections and brings together sculptures, paintings, and prints exploring the iconography of Hercules, most of which come from the museum\u2019s own collection.<\/p>\n\n

Using ancient artefacts, the exhibition explores the art-historical context of Hercules as well as the Greek myth without which the Colossus of Kassel would not exist. Its model\u2014a monumental sculpture of Hercules\u2014was excavated in Rome in 1546 and subsequently installed in the Palazzo Farnese. The artwork greatly impressed Landgrave Carl of Hesse-Kassel during his journey to Italy, and a few years later he chose it as the model for the crowning feature of his Gesamtkunstwerk on the Karlsberg. Prints and paintings illustrate the statue\u2019s development and the enduring legacy of the colossal copper sculpture.<\/p>\n\n

Die Ausstellung stellt die Rezeption des Kasseler Herkules in der bildenden Kunst des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts vor. Dass der Koloss nicht nur Wahrzeichen Nordhessens ist, sondern auch \u00fcberregional eine wichtige Position einnimmt, dokumentieren neben dem seit 2013 gef\u00fchrten Titel als UNESCO-Welterbe auch die Reflexionen seitens zeitgen\u00f6ssischer K\u00fcnstler, die im zweiten Teil der Ausstellung pr\u00e4sentiert werden.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3030,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"werk-kategorie":[193,192],"class_list":["post-3095","werk","type-werk","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","werk-kategorie-exhibition","werk-kategorie-series"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nHerkules 300 - Wiedergeburt eines Helden - Frank Hoppmann<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.frankhoppmann.de\/en\/werk\/herkules-300-wiedergeburt-eines-helden\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Herkules 300 - Wiedergeburt eines Helden - Frank Hoppmann\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"2017 Six works by Hoppmann at the major museum in Kassel.
