The book traces how ideologues of the slaveholding planter class institutionalized the association between ‘fine arts’ and key attributes of whiteness, and it examines how this association continues to shape art historical narratives in Cuba. Part of Faculty Colloquium event series. Cary Aileen García Yero is a Cuban-Canadian historian of Latin American arts and culture. She received her PhD in History from Harvard University in 2020.

Are you ready to take your social and political passions out of the classroom and into the real world? On April 13th at 19:00 in the Julie Johnson Kidd Hall Cafe, REM on Campus are bringing back BCB alumni who are on the frontlines of human rights, political journalism, and community building to show you how it's done. This is not your average panel. To give you the best networking experience possible, we are skipping the stage and using an intimate, interactive roundtable format. You will sit directly with the speakers in small groups, ask your biggest career questions face-to-face, and discuss the real roadmap to success. (Don’t worry, we’ll have premade question sheets as well, so you can also just sit and listen!) At the end of the event, all groups will come together to share their top insights for navigating the NGO and civic fields. And yes, there will be snacks! Just drop by the JJK Cafe at 19:00 to join the conversation. We can't wait to see you there!

Along the way, he saw firsthand how powerful data can be in driving growth and decision-making. But he also began to notice a deeper challenge: we struggle to use data collectively, especially when it comes to solving complex problems like sustainability. This insight led him to co-found the SINE Foundation, where he now works on enabling the flow of trusted sustainability data across organizations to unlock better coordination and real-world impact. For this work, Aurel was recognized as an Ashoka Fellow in 2024. Trained as a mathematician and now a PhD economist, his work revolves around one central question: how can we move from collecting data to connecting systems, enabling a more collaborative and sustainable economy?

While hardness has historically been associated with stability, control, and dominance, softness remains relational, evolving, and difficult to fix. Often embedded in practices such as textile-making, soft technologies have frequently been marginalized or erased, despite their complexity and adaptability. The look at artistic practices will be an entry point to reconsider how we understand the interplay of technology, material intelligence, and the sensory dimensions. Part of the Seminar “New Materialisms in Philosophy & Art” by Nisaar Ulama. Epona Hamdan is a researcher, curator, and cultural organizer working across embodied knowledge, critical theory, and cosmotechnical inquiry. Her practice explores how artistic, philosophical, scientific, and locally grounded knowledges intersect in the wide scope of perspectives on technology, law, and community. She is a researcher and producer at Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW), with a focus on quantum physics and artificial intelligence.

Have you been surprised by some of its capacity for legitimate research? Are you concerned about its impact on your own learning or field of study? In this discussion, the Learning Commons invites students to share their experiences using AI currently and gather questions they might have about how it fits into their degree at Bard Berlin and broader academic goals. Graduating students Muhammed Sayed and Alejandro Gilardi Ramirez will begin with a few words on their perspectives from using AI in research and changes around in-class tests and other assignments. This meeting follows up on the AI Aware Universities program in 2025-6, in which the BCB community attended lectures by experts in the field and discussed the ethical use of AI in an undergraduate context. At that time, students shared their academic goals and guidelines with faculty. As things are moving so quickly with this technology, faculty would like to hear more about its actual use by students now. Learning Commons faculty will then share student perspectives in faculty meetings that follow.

This lecture explores evolving premodern visions of the body across medical traditions in East and West. We will trace the shift from the authority of ancient texts to the growing prestige of experimentation in early modern medicine. We will examine how mechanical models of the body, alongside new reflections on the mind-body relationship, reshaped medical theory and practice. We will also consider the roles of physicians and midwives in widening efforts to help women understand their own bodies—a theme that continues to resonate in medical discourse today. This lecture is part of the Early Modern Science core course. Zoom link to attend the lecture.

The crisis of nuclear modernity and its repercussions in Ukraine and beyond Friday, April 17, 2026 7–9 pm P98A Lecture Hall The Chornobyl nuclear plant explosion (26 April 1986) became a watershed event in the contemporary history of Ukraine, the USSR, and Eastern Europe in general. The explosion’s effects challenged scientific progress and socialist modernization under Soviet rule. This technological catastrophe of global dimension was perceived as a prelude to the collapse of the Soviet system and the resulting multifaceted transformation of the countries of Eastern Europe. How can we reinterpret the post-Chornobyl era from the perspective of the last forty years - as the postindustrial postmodern, a post-communist transformation, or a postcolonial stage - and how were the three processes interconnected?

The finance and tech sectors have minted new billionaires with great ambitions and visions for politics and society; favorable tax and regulatory systems have allowed the old, preexisting gilded classes to hold onto their wealth and pass it to their descendants. Evan Osnos, a staff writer for The New Yorker and co-host of The New Yorker’s Political Scene podcast, will make a rare visit to Berlin for the launch of the German edition of his latest book on this subject, "The Haves and the Have Yachts." This discussion will address how this new global class has emerged and what sort of effect they have on everything from elections to inequality to tax policy and public attitudes towards politics and society. What are the particular norms, attributes, chief characteristics of this new gilded age? How does this gilded age intersect with increased alienation and polarization that feed distrust and dissatisfaction with government? Osnos will share insights and anecdotes from this world—from the luxury yachts in the title to a support group for convicted white-collar criminals—and address the immense power a handful of ultra-wealthy individuals have in shaping American politics. Moderated by Joshua Yaffa. Please register in advance via Google Form. Unfortunately, the number of seats for this event are limited. In cooperation with Heinrich Böll Foundation.

April 24 - April 30 ...Ok yes, we have celebrated PRIDE at BCB many times, but we've only done so in the summer during Berlin PRIDE Month. This year we want to celebrate during the semester with more of our community. Everyone is invited. While PRIDE Month in Berlin is both a celebration and a protest, it traces back to the 1969 Stonewall uprising in New York, when queer communities resisted police oppression and sparked a global movement for LGBTQ+ rights. Berlin brings its own history: once a queer cultural hub in the 1920s, later marked by Nazi persecution of LGBTQ+ people, and now home to Christopher Street Day (CSD), one of Europe’s largest PRIDE marches. Today, PRIDE in Berlin is about visibility, remembrance, and continuing the push for equality, and that is how we also want to celebrate it at BCB. We'll aim to honor the past while shaping a more inclusive future, and you're invited to take part. Join us for any of our week of events, and reach out to the organizers if you'd like to help!

Nation, Race, and Class in the Soviet Sphere Friday, April 24, 2026 9 am – 8 pm JJK Hall Café (W15) & Metis This conference explores the paradoxes of communist internationalism by focusing on the USSR and its satellites. Soviet type regimes claimed to transcend the nation-state and condemned nationalism as a bourgeois relic, yet they relied and often mobilized national loyalties to legitimize and maintain control. Communist countries theorized anti-colonialism and promoted racial equality abroad, even while repressing minorities and silencing ethnic tensions at home. The collapse of communism as a social and political system exposed these contradictions. By examining the gap between ideology and practice, the conference investigates nationalism’s persistence and its enduring role in shaping contemporary politics. Organized by Berit Ebert, Denis Skopin, Ewa Atanassow. In cooperation with Bundesstiftung zur Aufarbeitung der SED-Diktatur.

We'll aim to honor the past while shaping a more inclusive future, and you're invited to take part. Join us for any of our week of events, and reach out to the organizers if you'd like to help!
