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 does music have a direct effect on the body? Where do you feel the sounds, and how can you translate them into movement? In this workshop, you’ll explore the soundscapes of composer and artist Ryuichi Sakamoto, where the boundaries between hearing, seeing and feeling become blurred. Back in the studio, you’ll build on what you’ve experienced through short choreographic exercises.
After seeing plenty in the museum, make the most of the opportunity in the studio to design your own Family Sunday poster featuring your impressions. What is there to see here, and what do you like?
Please note: On 8 November 2026, artist Lucy König will be a guest at the open studio for families instead of the poster workshop. And on 15 November Hamburger Bahnhof will be celebrating it’s 30th anniversary with free admission for everybody!
