Nürnberg GLOBAL 1300-1600
Exhibition catalog: Nürnberg GLOBAL 1300-1600, GNM Nuremberg, September 25, 2025 - March 22, 2026
Between 1300 and 1600, Nuremberg evolved into a trading hub with networks spanning the globe. Economics, politics, the arts, and culture were closely entangled with one another. Featuring fascinating works of art, this exhibition catalog traces the city’s expanding networks from the late Middle Ages to the Renaissance.
Nuremberg’s success as a center of knowledge and an innovative seat of industry laid the groundwork for Nuremberg’s cultural flourishing during Dürer’s time. However, part of the city’s prosperity was based on intensive mining, the arms trade and colonial enterprises. The catalog sheds light on this hitherto little-researched facet of the city’s history and critically reflects upon Nuremberg’s role in an increasingly globalized world.
