Events | Reading: Literatursalon im Kantkino

Berlin | December 11, 2018 | 8:00 PM

The discussion focuses on the significance of culture and cultural policy for Germany in general and for Berlin in particular. What are the consequences of Berlin's prominent position as capital of the federal state for internal and external cultural policy? How are Germany and its cultural representation sites perceived like the Thomas Mann House in Los Angeles or the program of the DAAD's Artists-in-Berlin Program?

This cultural salon will be held for the third time together with the Kulturpolitische Gesellschaft on the initiative of Dr. Ing. Sylvia Metz and Wibke Behrens.

To the culture salon

The Brandenburger Tor Foundation wants to fulfill its role as a neutral cultural mediator and also point out challenging situations in Berlin's cultural landscape. The aim is to give new impulses and to promote possible solutions. The Max Liebermann Haus becomes a contemporary cultural salon with the Brandenburger Tor Foundation and offers a platform for cultural policy topics with a focus on the art market and cultural policy.

Cooperation with the Kulturpolitische Gesellschaft e.V.

The Stiftung Brandenburger Tor and the Kulturpolitische Gesellschaft host a cultural salon in cooperation for the third time.

The Kulturpolitische Gesellschaft e.V. was founded in 1976 and is a nationwide association of around 1,500 politically interested and committed people and institutions from the fields of cultural work, art, politics, science, journalism and cultural administration.
