An exhibition by Leipzig-based artist Annette Schröter (Meissen, Germany, 1956), co-curated and co-organised by Silke Mentchen, Magdalene College and Matthew Shaul, Director, Departure Lounge Contemporary Art.

Inspired in part by her origins near Colditz Castle in Germany and by the tales of wartime derring-do immortalised in the 1970s BBC TV series “Colditz”, Escape from Colditz is a contemplation on the theme of escape or escapism presented in a unique series of papercuts and collage.
