Symposium: "Have we really never been modern? Bauhaus and documenta in elective affinity"

The public symposium deals with the implicit modernity narratives of the Bauhaus and the documenta exhibitions. The original constellation in Weimar and Kassel will be discussed and the metamorphoses in the passage through New Delhi, St. Lucia, Lagos (all documenta 11), Kabul (documenta 13) or Athens (documenta 14) will be explored. Where do the two interwoven narratives come from, what developments, what stresses and dynamics have they experienced, what others have they connected with and what threads have been spun from here?

Times: Friday, June 14: 3 to 6.45 p.m. Saturday, June 15: 9.30 am to 4 pm.

Concept: Heinz Bude, Professor of Macrosociology, University of Kassel

The symposium is part of the project"Bauhaus | documenta"
