03 February 2023, Saxony, Leipzig: Olaf Thormann, director of the Grassi Museum für Angewandte Kunst, pictured at the museum's annual press conference in Leipzig. The museum achieved a record number of new acquisitions in 2022. More than 5700 objects from the fields of arts and crafts, design and photography have been added. The Grassi Museum is planning six major special exhibitions this year. These range from the "secret art of upholstery" with more than 100 pieces of seating furniture from three centuries to the photographer Herlinde Koelbl. The Grassi Fair is also back on the schedule from October 20 to 22, where contemporary design and handicrafts can be purchased. Photo: Hendrik Schmidt/dpa
