herbst: Theorie zur Praxis 2016
Festival book; unlike a programme, it sets out in search of a different kind of closeness – and finds it through contributions written by programmed artists, artist portraits, theoretical comments dealing with this year’s leitmotif, “Wir schaffen das”, essays, reports or series of pictures.
Festival dates: 23 September – 16 October 2015.
In English and German.
