Führung durch die Ausstellung "Pride and Prejudice, Art & Craft – A Love Story"

Jane Austen's novel Pride and Prejudice describes the observation the social conventions of a hierarchically ordered society. The analogies to the conventions and judgments evident in the self-understanding and interplay of liberal and applied arts are numerous. The exhibition Pride and Prejudice at Heiligenkreuzerhof is conceived as a poetic narrative that places work of fine art on an equal footing with those of the applied arts in order to explore the interstices of the disciplines.
