We control, regulate, and monitor. We build up our defenses, protect ourselves, and insure against every eventuality, yet feel more insecure than ever. And still, risk holds a magical allure for us. We seek the rush, the thrill, the adventure. 
 

How safe do we need to feel before we are willing to take a risk? When does security itself become a danger? And how can we maintain trust in a world where nothing seems certain anymore?
 

Stapferhaus invites you into its Testing Center for Security and Risk.
 

In spring 2025, we selected the theme for our next exhibition and began an extensive research process. We conduct in-depth interviews with experts, explore the subject in team workshops, and hold creative working sessions with the exhibition designers at Kossmanndejong. Little by little, the world of the new exhibition is taking shape. Our goal is to make “Security: A Risk?” an interactive, multifaceted, and surprising experience for our visitors. The exhibition opens on November 8, 2026.
