Symposium & Congress
Postmodernism is back. Three generations of artists and thinkers rally around its legacy. Why is war on postmodernism being declared from the right? Why is it being blamed for Trump from the left? Why are its forms, its styles, its thinking topical again?
With: Cem A. aka freeze_magazine, Neville Brody, Nigel Coates, Simon Denny, Nikita Dhawan, Diedrich Diederichsen, Oliver Elser, Gertrud Koch, Eva Kraus, Sylvia Lavin, Reinhold Martin, John Maybury, Henrike Naumann, Sophie Parkin, Markus Peichl, Peter Pomerantsev, Kolja Reichert, Derek Ridgers, Martin Saar, Léa-Catherine Szacka, James Wines and many more.
Today, everyone is a critic. But where is the criticism? We are all experts who judge each other. But where do we get the criteria from? Today, every theatre, every museum, every scientific institute is expected to explain and promote its work itself - while independent mediation, classification and evaluation are disappearing with the general media. But without criticism, there is no publicity. Without publicity, no arts. Without the arts, no democracy. The congress "The future of critique" looks at fundamental changes in the public sphere, institutions and society. 90 international guests from theatre, music, literature, film, architecture, the visual arts and the media will speak at the Akademie der Künste in Berlin and the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn about the future of the public sphere.
