On the occasion of his 100th birthday, the work of Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921-1990) and his status as a great German-speaking writer will be commemorated. The exhibition (Kosmos Dürrenmatt) focuses on his (late) prose (the Stoffe) and on his theatre work in the Schauspielhaus in Zurich. Dürrenmatt did not become a pastor like his father. However, the stories from the Old Testament and the Greek legends from his childhood have shaped his work throughout his life. During the exhibition, the complete works of Friedrich Dürrenmatt will be read out and made visible.
