The stadthaus takes a curious look at various forms of female headgear in Islam, Christianity and Judaism. All three religions - each in its own way - share their idea of female modesty, that correlates with covering physical charms. The exhibition consists of three corresponding parts: Cherchez la femme, a takeover from the Jewish Museum Berlin, In My View, a stadthaus project with class 10a and the Foto-AG of the Hans und Sophie Scholl-Gymnasium, as well as En attendant l'Eternité, a photo series by Laurence von der Weid.

Zunächst Cherchez la femme:
The idea of female modesty, which requires women to cover their "charms", exists in Judaism, Christianity as well as in Islam. In everyday life, there are various ways of interpretation: traditional rules can be construed in a fashionable way, and clothing can become a political symbol in the struggle for public recognition.
"Cherchez la femme" presents a range of perspectives regarding head and body coverings and pleads for curiosity and self-determination, to get to know and respect each other.
With videos, sculptures, objects and photography of Nilbar Güreș, Rozbeh Asmani, Mandana Moghaddam, Andi Arnovitz, Sigal Adelman etc.
