Experience fake food in the Hohenberger Museum – a feast for the senses!
An exciting experience awaits visitors in beautiful Hohenberg: The special exhibition “Fake Food. Food between appearance and reality” in the Porzellanikon surprises and stimulates thought. Curator Theresia Schmitt leads through this unique show and shows a variety of deceptively real fake food, including a meticulously recreated lettuce. It's about deceiving the senses and questioning the perception of food, which is particularly important for people with visual impairments. This special focus makes the event a real highlight for interested visitors who want to deal with the challenges of visiting a museum without the sense of sight Frankenpost reports.
But what makes this exhibition so special? Theresia Schmitt's tour not only invites guests to experience the visual illusion, but also to actively use their other senses. This is an important step in inclusive museum work that focuses on the needs and experiences of people with disabilities. “It is time for museums to be accessible to everyone,” explains Schmitt. “Through such special exhibitions we can break down prejudices and promote dialogue.”
The game with disgust
In a different twist on the extraordinary museum experiences, the Disgusting Food Museum offers an interesting perspective on the topic of food. It not only aims to present shocking examples of culinary cruelty, but at the same time explains the human feeling of disgust. Here visitors learn that their disgust is often culturally influenced and that it is possible to engage with the objects of disgust. This gives them the chance to overcome their first impressions and have new experiences. Because what is disgusting for one person can be a delicacy for another Berlin provides information about this.

These are designed to offer people with visual impairments an unforgettable experience and to gain insights into the world of art and culture through shared dialogue. The initiative ensures that no barriers remain and everyone can experience the art up close DBSV also addresses this.
The combination of art, inclusion and a critical examination of our sensory impressions impressively shows how museums continue to develop and become more and more diverse. An invitation to question one's own prejudices and discover new perspectives applies to all visitors - regardless of whether they are visually impaired or not.
