INVESTIGATIVE ARTS

The upcoming season at Kampnagel is characterised by a look back at the rich history of progressive art - a celebration of the avant-garde and the connection between political activism and artistic research. The three-day focus INVESTIGATIVE ARTS at the opening of the season shows how the potential of research-based art can be reflected upon and actively utilised as a political instrument. The programme, curated by Körber-Stiftung and Kampnagel, focuses on aesthetics that combine artistic methods (such as visual art, design, performance) with investigative techniques (e.g. journalism, forensics, data analysis) in order to make power structures and injustices visible.
