Flemme! History of Fatigue

Description

In the Middle Ages, people got tired without really saying so. During the Enlightenment, people started to feel tired... in the head too. In the 19th century, fatigue was measured, treated, and sometimes even sought after. Today, we accumulate everything, with a little extra mental overload. At the Musée du Vieux-Moudon, the social history of fatigue. At the Musée Eugène Burnand, work and rest in art and costumes. In collaboration with the Musée Artistes Femmes (MAF).
Vernissage of the exhibition: Monday, April 27, 2026 at 6:00 PM Speech by Christelle Luisier, State Councillor. Performance by Benoît Vivien, mime and clown poet. Choir of the Moudon school. Aperitif in the museums' gardens.
