Bulle. Eine Stadt im Focus.

Der Blick von 13 Schweizer Kunstschaffenden auf eine Stadt im Wandel
Innerhalb von 30 Jahren hat sich die Bevölkerung von Bulle von 10'000 auf 20'000 Personen verdoppelt. Welche Blicke lassen sich heute auf diese Stadt im Wandel richten, auf ihre urbanistische Entwicklung, ihre Mobilität und ihre Einwohner? Das Musée gruérien lancierte 2013 einen Wettbewerb zu diesem Thema. Dreizehn Kunstschaffende aus der ganzen Schweiz wurden von einer Fachjury ausgewählt. Sie präsentieren im Museum ihren Beitrag zu «Eine Stadt im Focus» und laden zur Reflexion ein.
