Bremen's Kunsthalle devotes an exhibition to dachshunds for first time

The world's first exhibition devoted entirely to the dachshund breed has opened at the Kunsthalle in Bremen, Germany. The show "The Dachshund: An Icon off the Leash" presents about 120 objects and works of art, from Pablo Picasso to Otto Dix. According to a short description by Euronews, the breed was first developed in the late 17th century for hunting badgers. Dachshunds have also often inspired artists, including David Hockney and Andy Warhol, whose dogs accompanied them on their creative paths. The space is also specially adapted for four-legged visitors: dachshunds and other small dogs are welcomed by a scented environment and a separate rest lounge. The exhibition is open until 28 March 2027.
