Sport and leisure in works from the Würth Collection

The new main exhibition at Forum Würth Rorschach focuses on the joys and challenges of leisure activities, whether sport or play. After all, this pastime not only offers exercise and a welcome change from everyday life, but also provides scope for new impulses and inspiration and therefore plays an important role in the creative process. The must-do hours beyond fixed rules, distractions in carefree freedom, daydreams, letting oneself drift, strolling around, chilling out or fooling around characterize our leisure behavior and find their expression in diverse artistic formulations. Is the art world ultimately perhaps even the ultimate playground? And is the spirit of competition not only omnipresent in modern society, but also in the artistic milieu? In addition to the classic sporting activities and leisure pursuits that can also be observed around Würth Haus Rorschach on the shores of Lake Constance, such as swimming, sailing or cycling, the main exhibition is dedicated to the phenomenon of play as a creative experience - from childish pleasure to parlor games.
