The exhibition is a tribute to the artist Sven Dühl (born 1968 in Nassau ⁄ Lahn), casting a light for the first time on his roles as a collector and theorist. For over two decades, Dühl has exhibited his conceptual landscape paintings, neons, and bronzes in institutional settings. In addition to Dühl's often large-scale works (approximately 30 pieces), the Hans Erni Museum in Lucerne and Museum Wiesbaden now present his carefully curated collection of 19th-century paintings, featuring artists such as  Eugen Bracht, Janus La Cour and Carl Spitzweg. The exhibition also highlights Dühl's theoretical contributions, including his reputed editorial work at „Kunstforum International“ and his authorship of numerous art historical articles.
