Description Destination
In the former poorhouse of the city of Cham, a late Gothic building, the SPUR Museum shows paintings, sculptures and works on paper by the artist group SPUR. In the anti-war film "The Bridge" by Bernhard Wicki, shot in Cham in 1959, the historic poorhouse played a central role. Since 1995, the iron sculpture "Large Armored Seated Man" by Lothar Fischer, a member of the SPUR group, has stood on the bridge.
In the autumn of 1957, a group of young artists exhibited together in the pavilion of the Old Botanical Garden in Munich. In January 1958 they came up with the name SPUR for their merger. The founding members of the artist group included Heimrad Prem and Helmut Sturm, both from Cham, as well as Lothar Fischer and Hans-Peter Zimmer. With its four members Prem (1934-1978), Sturm (1932-2008), Fischer (1933-2004) and HP Zimmer (1936-1992), the SPUR group existed until 1965. The group's ideas and artistic innovation are considered a significant contribution to the international awakening of art in the post-war period.
In addition to the museum's holdings, the works shown in the Museum SPUR are loans from private collections, museums and galleries, or the "Kunstverein Museum SPUR". In annually changing exhibitions, aspects of the work of the SPUR group and its members are presented, which are supplemented by lectures, film screenings, readings, etc.
On the ground floor of the poorhouse, the Cham City Archives exhibit local history exhibitions.
