98-676_GlaeserneFiguren-engl The Transparent Figures are the most well-known exhibition objects
of the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum and were presented to millions of people in the 20th century in
the most varied exhibition formats. The transparent models were primarily made of the plastic
cellulose acetate  which is subject to pronounced ageing processes. The body models were
examined and a concept for their long-term preservation was created in the conservation science
research project Transparent Figures - Exhibition Icons of the 20th Century. The knowledge
concerning the production and material history acquired  as well as of ageing processes and
possibilities for conservation are presented in this publication. This is joined by
recommendations for dealing with three-dimensional cellulose acetate objects in museums and
collections. In addition to this  more than 60 historical objects from the Transparent Figures
collection set will be presented. The focus is thereby on the curricula vitae of the twelve
complete figures found in the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum  which were manufactured between 1935
and 2000 and have all undergone the transformation from the display model to the historically
important object. The evaluation potential of other object groups with regard to manufacturing
technology and the exhibition history of the figures  as well as to the presentation and
advertising strategies are also illuminated.
