KunstWerkRaum
Yes, we’re open!
„Yes, we’re open!“ – this is very much what our intercultural workshop on art appreciation – “KunstWerkRaum”– is all about. Our programme addresses all persons interested in communicating with – and through – art in the widest sense. As such, it is designed to create a maximum pool of languages possible. And by this we do not just mean the spoken word, but language in all its imaginable forms.
Interview
Aenne Biermann
INTIMACY WITH THINGS
Today, Aenne Biermann (1898–1933) is considered one of the major proponents of ‘New Photography’. Although she was only active as a photographer for a few years and, unlike her female colleagues Florence Henri, Germaine Krull and Lucia Moholy, for example, had neither an artistic training nor moved within the avant-garde circles of major urban centres, Aenne Biermann developed her own markedly modern pictorial style that established her position as a representative of contemporary avant-garde photography within a very short time.

Danner Rotunde
Der Schmuckraum der Pinakothek der Moderne
Nach der farbenfrohen Konzeption der Danner-Rotunde eines Karl Fritsch und der in zurückgenommenem Weiß gehaltenen von Otto Künzli – beides weltweit agierende Schmuckkünstler und Professoren für Goldschmiedekunst – ist es zu Beginn des zweiten Jahrzehnts des 21. Jahrhunderts an der Zeit, die Danner-Rotunde erneut einer Neu-Kuratierung zu unterziehen.
