The Court Jews Gallery
Permanent Exhibition (section 4) – Jewish Museum Berlin
In July 2007 Duncan McCauley were commissioned with the re-design of the “Court Jews” gallery in Berlin’s Jewish Museum, telling the complex story of the historical court Jews during the 18th century in a new and compelling manner. The design complements the overall architectural style of the permanent exhibit space. The subject matter is conveyed through a variety of interactive media as well as conventional displays. One of the highlights is a film projection in which 12 individuals and their respective fates are portrayed in a multimedia gallery, representing the life and times of the court Jews.
