On the tour through the exhibition rooms, students discover expressive drawings on the themes of death, grief, loneliness and the longing for belonging and love. The artist Johannes Robert Schürch endeavoured to depict the world and people in all their facets. The classes look at his drawings, which show figures from the circus world or people affected by poverty and living on the margins of society. They discuss the desires, feelings and issues that concern us today. The observations are supplemented with background information on the artist and his working methods.
