Marinka Limat. Kunstpilgerreise I

In 2013, Performance artist Marinka Limat set out on an art pilgrimage. It was a hike of 1100 km, 65 days from Fribourg in Switzerland to Berlin. On her way, she spoke to people in museums, art institutions and artist studios. She recorded her experiences in drawings, images and sound. What she compiled in this way is nothing short of a »state of the art 2013« in public. She has now recorded everything in a documentary film. This can be seen on 18 January 2017 at 7 pm. There will be a podium discussion with the artist following this screening.
