Bard College Berlin has the pleasure to invite you to an evening at the crossroads of times, people and places on Tuesday, May 15.6:00 pm – 9:30 pm EDT/GMT-4
An exhibition of works of art created by students for the seminar History and Memory: Forced Migration in 20th and 21st century Germany will frame a presentation and dialogue about the late work of Francisco de Goya (1746-1828).
Nearly two centuries separate these expressions of migration and yet the same worn-out ghost wanders about.
Program
6pm – Opening of the exhibition and refreshments
7pm – Introduction by Marion Detjen and John von Bergen
7.20pm – Presentations by the students
8pm – Presentation by Geoff Lehman followed by a conversation with Norbert Miller about the late work of Goya
8.45pm – Open discussion
We will serve Afghani Burgers and a cake that has made it from Slovenia to Egyptian cookbooks.
Admission free
