D 2024 - 111' - DF - Director: Katharina Pethke

Guest: Director Katharina Pethke

How much does a place reveal about its history? How much can ancestors and descendants know about each other? And how much continuity does progress hold? When Katharina Pethke became a professor at the Kunsthochschule Hamburg, it set a process of reflection and research in motion. Not only did she study there, but so did her mother and grandmother. Each of the three women believed they were breaking new ground and yet, consciously or unconsciously, through attitude or in protest, continued to write a legacy. The essay film examines three generations in the field of tension between social determination and artistic ambition, stubbornness and motherhood, production and reproduction. The university building and the only sculpture by a female artist purchased by urban planner Fritz Schumacher, "Frauenschicksal", become a mirror and showcase for ongoing ambivalences. With virtuosity and cleverness, the established filmmaker weaves her family biography and the architectural history of today's art and media campus into a dense fabric that openly explores the big questions of female and artistic identities using her own example.
