The Hamburger Bahnhof was one of Berlin’s major terminus stations in the 19th century – a place of arrival, departure and transition. To this day, this history shapes the museum of contemporary art in the heart of Berlin. Like Berlin itself, the Hamburger Bahnhof is full of complexity and contrasts, with change as its constant.
Family Sunday
How about if your school were right next to your favourite playground? Or if you lived right next to Hamburger Bahnhof?! Inspired by the work of the artist Shilpa Gupta, create a personalised map featuring your favourite places. Use your imagination and discuss how your routes might take a different shape.
What texts did you discover in the museum? What do they tell us? And do you actually want to read them? In the Assosisatz writing workshop, you can rethink the texts. What would you write? Maybe how the artwork smells? Think about what you would be interested in reading, create your own texts, and hang them right next to the artworks!
