Kayaks glide silently over rivers and lakes, snowshoes carry you through snow-covered landscapes and surfboards provide the ultimate thrill in the surf. Kayaks and the like are as familiar to us as skis and bicycles, and lacrosse is also becoming increasingly popular in Switzerland. But where do the games and equipment that have long been part of our sports repertoire come from? If you want to know what kayaks and surfboards were once invented for, who needs to watch out for the snow snake and what sport and exercise have to do with making amends, you can find out here. Move invites you on a journey through moving worlds. Let's move!
Indigenous artists in urban settings, whalers in the Arctic, bison hunters on the Great Plains or mask carvers on the Northwest Coast. The collection exhibition invites you on a little journey across the vast North America. The museum highlights the diversity of the Indigenous Nations, past and present, and offers insights into the art forms and cultures of First Nations, Inuit, Native Americans and Native Alaskans.
