Wars and disasters plunge entire societies into a state of limbo, caught between a destroyed past and a future yet to be shaped.

The Ukrainian artist collective Open Group and the US architect V. Mitch McEwen explore how new forms of coexistence can emerge under these conditions. The Israeli artist Nir Evron illustrates how history, the media and violence intertwine in the Middle East conflict and brings to light hidden historical connections that are often overlooked in the present day.

ZWISCHENSTÜCKE
Musical and performative interventions with Paul Hübner (trumpet), Kioomars Musayyebi (santur), Immanuel Schuhmacher (concept and percussion), Nurit Stark (violin and viola)
