On 6 December, we want to look back at the Ornamenta 2024, regional cultural programme in Germany’s Northern Black Forest, and celebrate the launch of Tubelight's new magazine issue, including an extensive article on Ornamenta. During the event, we zoom out of the cultural programme in the Northern Black Forest and reflect on international cultural collaborations and programming taking place in provincial areas. We discuss the impact of international programming on local populations and how local cultural scenes enrich international art biennales. We talk about what aftercare could look like when setting up collaborations with local partners in provincial areas in other countries. Lastly, we want to find out how to maintain sustainable partnerships and ensure long-term impact.
The speakers will be Yvonne Dröge Wendel, acclaimed artist and, since 2009, head of the Fine Arts deparment at the Gerrit Rietveld Acadmie in Amsterdam and curator, exhibition maker and film- and performance director Jules van den Langenberg. He was part of the curatorial team of the Ornamenta 2024.
The event will be moderated by creative advisor at DutchCulture Astrid Mörk.
This event is a collaboration between Tubelight Magazine, DutchCulture and Goethe-Institut Niederlande.
