Event Calendar

The Summer Festival at Brecht and Weigel’s, featuring an open archive, guided tours of the museum, music and performances exploring Brecht’s “(un)American activities”. Followed by a “witching hour” at the neighbouring Dorotheenstadt Cemetery.

Anna Seghers found support among her friends, including Steffie Spira and Helene Weigel, with whom she remained close until the end of her life.

The lecture series takes the 20th anniversary of the Valeska Gert Guest Professorship as an opportunity to celebrate Gert’s contributions to dance, film, performance art, experimental theatre, and queer and feminist culture.

In the Dorotheenstadt Cemetery, Brecht's last resting place, many of his comrades-in-arms are also laid to rest. The tour aims to trace these references and influences.

The murals from 1957 and 1958 can be viewed as part of the eventful history of the institution and building.

The Schaudepot (display depot) provides an exclusive insight into the Akademie der Künste’s outstanding collection of architectural models.

Four international fellows from the fields of architecture, film and media art, music and literature at the JUNGE AKADEMIE are opening their studios to the public to mark the end of their stay in Berlin.

Featuring experts Benjamin Beuerle, Nina Fischer and Maria Gimenez, and artists Leon Erhorn, Petja Ivanova, Iris ter Schiphorst and Cécile Wajsbrot
