This exhibition focuses on small-format parchment artworks that Michael Triegel created to depict selected dinner speeches given by Martin Luther. They focus on Luther as a doubter and a searcher, and not on his role as theologian and reformer. Triegel's works are not illustrations in a traditional sense. Instead, Luther's statements are transformed into symbolically charged objects shown in close-up.
