Contact: [email protected] Symposium: On the Abyss of PicturesThursday, August 31, 2023 – Friday, September 1, 2023St. Matthäus-Kirche, Matthäikirchplatz, 10785 Berlin-Tiergarten."To write a poem after Auschwitz is barbaric," Theodor W. Adorno noted in 1949 - and in doing so, he also questioned other forms of artistic engagement with the Holocaust. The exhibition On the Abyss of Pictures (Am Abgrund der Bilder) by the German-British artist Michael Anthony Müller takes a commentative look at Gerhard Richter's Birkenau Cycle in the New National Gallery and poses the question of how the Holocaust was dealt with in art. What could be appropriate artistic forms of remembrance? How can we approach the human catastrophe of the Shoah in pictures? Internationally renowned image scholars, philosophers and philosophers of religion will discuss these questions at the public symposium. The symposium will be opened with a lecture by Professor Benjamin Buchloh on August 31 at 7:00 p.m. On September 1, renowned scholars such as Professor Almut Shulamit Bruckstein, Professor Thomas Macho, and Lukas Töpfer will discuss various approaches to these questions. The day will conclude with a discussion with Michael Anthony Müller and key experts. Guests are most welcome to attend the opening lecture by Benjamin Buchloh, individual sessions of the symposium, and/or the closing discussion with the artist Michael Müller as they wish. A participation of the whole program is not required. For more information, a detailed program, and to register please visit On the Abyss of Pictures.Sponsored by: Bard College Berlin.

Bernauer Str. 119, 13355 Berlin
If Paris was the "Capital of the Nineteenth Century," as Walter Benjamin thought, then Berlin -- arguably and catastrophically -- was the capital of the twentieth. After the Holocaust and the Second World War, both initiated in and planned from Berlin, the city was divided and quickly became the center of the emergent Cold War. From 1961 to 1989, the division of the world into East and West became concrete in the shape of the Wallrunning right through the city center and all around its western part. We will visit the Wall's most infamous and best-preserved stretch, along Bernauer Straße, and learn about its deeper political and economic origins and about its existential and everyday effects on the lives of the people, families and systems it separated. Tour led by Florian Becker.
Meeting Point: In front of the entrance to the Visitor Center of the Berlin Wall Memorial (Bernauer Str. 119, 13355 Berlin)

Haus Kunst Mitte (Heidestraße 54, 10557 Berlin)
The art exhibition "To Be - Named" at Haus Kunst Mitte, curated by BCB’s long-time collaborator Dr. Dorothea Schöne and created in cooperation with the Experimental Humanities Collaborative Network (EHCN), is dedicated to the topic of naming and the significance of names for the development or suppression of a person's identity. The paintings, installations, films, and photographs selected for the show engage with the traces of colonial history and colonial injustice that have manifested themselves over decades through naming, image appropriation and one-sided forms of historiography.
After the tour led by Dr. Schöne, Dr. Künnei Takaahai, a cultural anthropologist from the University of Warsaw, will lead a unique workshop on the politics of naming. Dr. Takaahai’s research focuses on the societies and cultures of Siberia, Central Asia, and the Arctic as well as the identities of Indigenous peoples and multiculturalism in Siberia and the United States in the context of modern neo-colonialism, post-colonialism, and decolonial studies.
The number of participants is limited, so please sign up for the tour and workshop at your earliest convenience via this Google Form.Sponsored by: Bard College Berlin; OSUN.

Symposium: On the Abyss of Pictures
Thursday, August 31, 2023 – Friday, September 1, 2023
St. Matthäus-Kirche, Matthäikirchplatz, 10785 Berlin-Tiergarten."To write a poem after Auschwitz is barbaric," Theodor W. Adorno noted in 1949 - and in doing so, he also questioned other forms of artistic engagement with the Holocaust. The exhibition On the Abyss of Pictures (Am Abgrund der Bilder) by the German-British artist Michael Anthony Müller takes a commentative look at Gerhard Richter's Birkenau Cycle in the New National Gallery and poses the question of how the Holocaust was dealt with in art.
What could be appropriate artistic forms of remembrance? How can we approach the human catastrophe of the Shoah in pictures? Internationally renowned image scholars, philosophers and philosophers of religion will discuss these questions at the public symposium. The symposium will be opened with a lecture by Professor Benjamin Buchloh on August 31 at 7:00 p.m. On September 1, renowned scholars such as Professor Almut Shulamit Bruckstein, Professor Thomas Macho, and Lukas Töpfer will discuss various approaches to these questions. The day will conclude with a discussion with Michael Anthony Müller and key experts.
Guests are most welcome to attend the opening lecture by Benjamin Buchloh, individual sessions of the symposium, and/or the closing discussion with the artist Michael Müller as they wish. A participation of the whole program is not required.
For more information, a detailed program, and to register please visit On the Abyss of Pictures.Sponsored by: Bard College Berlin.

The Wall Tour at Bernauer Straße
Sunday, September 10, 2023
11 am – 1 pm
Bernauer Str. 119, 13355 BerlinIf Paris was the "Capital of the Nineteenth Century," as Walter Benjamin thought, then Berlin -- arguably and catastrophically -- was the capital of the twentieth. After the Holocaust and the Second World War, both initiated in and planned from Berlin, the city was divided and quickly became the center of the emergent Cold War. From 1961 to 1989, the division of the world into East and West became concrete in the shape of the Wallrunning right through the city center and all around its western part. We will visit the Wall's most infamous and best-preserved stretch, along Bernauer Straße, and learn about its deeper political and economic origins and about its existential and everyday effects on the lives of the people, families and systems it separated. Tour led by Florian Becker.

To Be – Named: Curatorial Tour and Workshop
Saturday, September 23, 2023
2–4 pm
Haus Kunst Mitte (Heidestraße 54, 10557 Berlin)The art exhibition "To Be - Named" at Haus Kunst Mitte, curated by BCB’s long-time collaborator Dr. Dorothea Schöne and created in cooperation with the Experimental Humanities Collaborative Network (EHCN), is dedicated to the topic of naming and the significance of names for the development or suppression of a person's identity. The paintings, installations, films, and photographs selected for the show engage with the traces of colonial history and colonial injustice that have manifested themselves over decades through naming, image appropriation and one-sided forms of historiography.
After the tour led by Dr. Schöne, Dr. Künnei Takaahai, a cultural anthropologist from the University of Warsaw, will lead a unique workshop on the politics of naming. Dr. Takaahai’s research focuses on the societies and cultures of Siberia, Central Asia, and the Arctic as well as the identities of Indigenous peoples and multiculturalism in Siberia and the United States in the context of modern neo-colonialism, post-colonialism, and decolonial studies.
The number of participants is limited, so please sign up for the tour and workshop at your earliest convenience via this Google Form.Sponsored by: Bard College Berlin; OSUN.
