On the occasion of Karl Marx’ 200th birthday, Akademie artists report on encounters with his work and the influence it had on their own artistic oeuvre. In the context of the Spring General Assembly, the Akademie invites to in-house talks at Hanseatenweg with its members Jochen Gerz, Regine Keller, Ursula Krechel, Helke Misselwitz, Ingo Schulze, Arila Siegert, Mathias Spahlinger and Uwe Timm. Ulrich Peltzer will moderate the consecutive discussion groups with Abstract Animations by Andreas Karaoulanis in between. Jeanine Meerapfel will introduce the evening.
