Salon für Ästhetische Experimente: On Reciprocity
Salon evening with Som Supaparinya and Amy Lien & Enzo Camacho to launch the new cooperation between the DAAD Artists-in-Berlin Program and the Graduate School
Salon für Ästhetische Experimente
Salon für Ästhetische Experimente is the series of events where the international fellows and alumni of the Graduate School of the Berlin University of the Arts (UdK), coming from different artistic disciplines, share their ongoing work and research with the Berlin public in diverse formats. The aesthetic experiment is driven by curiosity, it chooses to challenge rather than to affirm. Therefore, in its seven years history, Salon für Ästhetische Experimente has become a platform for creative and speculative proposals, interventions and activities initiated by the fellows. The events take the form of conversation, presentation, projection, workshop or performance to prepare a refreshing ground for discussing and questioning contemporary artistic processes, new modus operandi, research questions and current projects in a public context.
From 2013 to 2020 the Graduate School cooperated with Haus der Kulturen der Welt HKW.
