Oskar Schlemmer's core theme was the human figure in space. His ideal was a synthesis of strict composition and mysticism made vivid in nature. The\u00a0Oskar Schlemmer exhibition<\/a>\u00a0shows an excerpt of the approximately 300 paintings and drawings that are in the collection of the\u00a0Von der Heydt Museum<\/a>\u00a0are located.<\/p>\n In addition to the exhibits, curator Beate Eickhoff offers visitors another special feature: Schlemmer's art is to be experienced directly. The interactive \"participatory room\" is entirely dedicated to Schlemmer's \"Triadic Ballet\". The experimental dance was first performed in 1922 and consists of spatial, formal and gestural dance.<\/p>\n Visitors to the \"hands-on room\" can feel panels with lacquer paints and assemble figures from geometric shapes. There are even costumes on display that were modelled on the \"Triadic Ballet\" - visitors are allowed to try them on and take photos. A special attraction, however, is the VR green room \"Bauhaus Oasis\".<\/p>\n In a twelve-square-metre green room, visitors virtually engage with Schlemmer's ballet. Equipped with an HTC Vive and two controllers, they create figures from geometric shapes in an abstract virtual space. Two monitors are mounted on the outside wall of the VR greenroom, through which other interested visitors can observe.<\/p>\nMuseum to \"join in<\/h3>\n
