may kollektiv: zwischen den wegen
In the organizer's words:
A temporary space will be created in the rose garden to invite people to linger, reflect on stories and memories and engage in conversation. An installation consisting of three ceramic benches will be created for this purpose. The work "zwischen den wegen" pursues the approach of making gaps in common historical narratives visible. The starting point is the biographies of the children of Black American soldiers and German women who were born in West Germany after the liberation from National Socialism. These stories make it clear that the end of the Second World War was not really a new beginning, either socially or in terms of the culture of remembrance. How can an artistic examination of the post-war period with regard to colonial and racist continuities succeed without reproducing stereotypes?
Location: Rosengarten an der Sachsenstraße 2, 81543 Munich
Opening: September 20, 2 p.m.

Public Art Munich - Annuale 2025 "Zero Hour? How we became what we are."
6 temporary art projects in public space JUL - OCT 25
As part of a city-wide program on the post-war period in Munich entitled "Zero Hour? How we became what we are." focuses on questions that are still relevant today: What is the relationship between democracy, immigration and remembrance? How can authoritarian structures be overcome and a democratic society created? After the end of the war in 1945, Munich was a city on the move. Six temporary projects by Munich artists from Annuale 2025 address the changes and continuing structures of urban society after 1945 and comment on them artistically with regard to democracy, culture(s) of remembrance, repression and ideology.
Free admission to all art projects. Current information on locations and running times here.
