About the collection of love objects

A fennel pierced with Cupid’s arrow as a manifesto of a broken love became the epitome of love for Luise Loué. The first love object was born. In 2016 she created the collection of love objects with the following call:

♥

“What is the most important object that you have kept for a long time –
the most beautiful, unusual, special gift you have ever given or received?”

♥

The end of a love affair: Dried fennel with Cupid’s arrow: 20 x 15 x 5 cm, 2007

Getrockneter Fenchel

Numerous people rummaged through memories and boxes and collected what love had left behind. The steadily growing collection now comprises 130 artifacts plus their respective story. Among the love objects, to which deep affection, love, but also despair, rage and obsessions are inscribed, there are numerous objects in addition: a film, text panels, documents and hanging objects. A special piece of the collection is the Tiny House in Utting at Lake Ammersee. The museum’s mobile base is the largest love object in the collection and at the same time a place of self-love and encounter. A part of the collection is permanently exhibited here and can be admired during one of the offered guided tours or workshops. Apart from this, the collection of love objects is a touring exhibition through museums, galleries, cultural institutions, seminars and company events, which inspires its visitors and brings a smile to their faces. In the book “Vergiss die Liebe nicht. Liebesobjekte und ihre Geschichten” brings together 80 objects from the collection with their individual stories.
