Join us for “Past & Present”, a collaborative weekend-long celebration of our 15th anniversary in Pavillon 333 at Pinakothek der Moderne and ZIRKA.

We will be presenting “Contextualise” at Pinaktothek der Moderne, a rediscovery of the Der Greif archive through an interactive installation and artistic interventions from Friday, June 16 to Sunday, June 18, 2023. Admission is free, and the opening hours are as follows: Friday from 13:00 to 18:00, Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00.

In celebration of our anniversary and the spirit of interdisciplinary art, the Past & Present display embraces the power of diversity and change in our present moment. Visitors are encouraged to explore a selection from the extensive Greif archive and dive into submissions from our recent open call on the theme of "Past & Present" by arranging and rearranging the image materials, crafting new visual narratives or challenging existing ones.

Responding to the results, we have invited Munich-based authors Mira Mann and Angela Aux to share their poetic interpretations through texts and public readings. Each day, you'll have the opportunity to take home the image cards used in the display for a small donation. The proceeds will directly contribute to our Guest Room Scholarship to support emerging artists.

As an additional treat, on Saturday night, immerse yourself in an atmospheric sound-image installation at ZIRKA (Dachauer Str. 110c, 80636 München) featuring the captivating results from the first days of the display.
