Blickwechsel. Interreligiöse Gespräche zur Kunst

In the organizer's words:

Works from the exhibitions at the Kunsthalle Bremen each give three to four representatives of different religious traditions the opportunity to enter into a dialog on changing topics that move us all.

Why have people been and continue to be depicted naked in paintings and sculptures in museums?
The starting point for exploring this question is a group of figures depicting Adam and Eve and the so-called "Fall of Man". What does this story mean in Judaism, Christianity and Islam? What follows from the realization of being naked in the three religions? How does the respective interpretation of the source texts affect the relationship between the sexes/men/women? And which representations of the narrative continue in European pictorial history?

Speakers:
Irina Drabkina, anti-discrimination officer at ReBUZ Süd, Jewish Community in the State of Bremen
Yosran Sammar, lawyer, community member of the Daawa Mosque Bremen
Jasper von Legat, Protestant pastor, Friedenskirche in the Bremen quarter

Moderation: Marion Koch, art historian and art educator, initiator of the project
