An interactive exhibition that transforms knowledge into action
At RW21 City Library, Gallery (1st floor), the exhibition Step by Step Through Cancer Prevention invites you to an informative and visually engaging art experience of knowledge dissemination. As an interactive traveling exhibition of the Comprehensive Cancer Centers at LMU Klinikum Munich in cooperation with the Health Region Bayreuth, it combines medical prevention, clear design, and low-threshold cultural mediation.
Prevention as an aesthetic experience
The exhibition works with short, understandable text elements, playful components and practical tips. This creates an exhibition atmosphere where health knowledge is not conveyed dryly, but becomes tangible step by step. Those who take the contemplation of the works literally will discover not a painting, but a precisely curated sequence of modules that direct attention and make connections visible.
Twelve themes for better understanding
The modules cover central areas of cancer prevention: smoking and passive smoking, nutrition, exercise, weight, alcohol, carcinogenic substances, radiation and radon, breastfeeding and hormone therapy, UV protection, vaccinations, preventive examinations, and air pollution. This thematic breadth demonstrates the authority of the exhibition and clarifies how closely everyday life, lifestyle, and health are interconnected.
Opening with professional contextualization
The opening on September 29, 2026, at 4:30 PM brings additional professional perspectives into the space. With contributions from Stefan Schuh and Eva Rundholz, as well as a medical impulse from Univ.-Prof. Dr. med. Christoph Mundhenke, the exhibition also focuses on primary cancer prevention through HPV vaccinations. This not only adds informational value to the format but also cultural and societal relevance.
A place for education, encounter, and orientation
RW21 is more than just an exhibition venue: as a municipal educational center, it offers an open, barrier-free framework for cultural education and public knowledge dissemination. The gallery on the 1st floor provides a clear, calm space for focused absorption, exchange, and reflection. This is precisely the strength of this exhibition: it connects prevention with encounters and makes health knowledge immediately accessible.
Conclusion: This exhibition is aimed at all who take health as a societal issue seriously and want to experience knowledge in a tangible way. Step by Step Through Cancer Prevention offers comprehensible content, interactive approaches, and clear added value for everyday life. A visit is definitely worth it live in Bayreuth.
