Guests & Academics
The Opening Week is an opportunity to get into conversation with renowned guests and academics. All the impulses and talks revolve around a major theme: COLLECTING. We explore the various dimensions of collecting and focus on: Art & Archives, Data & Values, Power & Rights, Nature & Resources, Trust & Recognition.
The Opening Week will be guided by exciting guests, who we would like to introduce to you in the following.
Hosts
This year's hosts are vegetation ecologist Sylvia Haider, art historian Lynn Rother, social pedagogue Philipp Sandermann, legal scholar Valentin Schatz and professor for business administration Hannah Trittin. The professors lay the first tracks for the study programme and moderate the focus interviews on the stage of the Libeskind Auditorium.
