The »Festival der Kooperationen« takes a look at the overlapping social, political and ecological crises of the present. A variety of agents are involved in the festival, including Alexander Kluge, Jonathan Meese, Hannelore Hoger, Stefan Rahmstorf, Asal Dardan, Peter Weibel, Ulrike Draesner, Bruno Latour, Eva Horn, Bernd Scherer, Isabel Mundry, Lothar Müller, Teresa Bücker, Matthias Glaubrecht, Muriel Pic, Nuran David Calis, Mara-Daria Cojocaru, Ottmar Edenhoer, Yvonne Adhiambo Owuor, Hanns Zischler, Annett Gröschner, Durs Grünbein, Yoko Tawada and Helge Schneider.

In these times, cooperation is more needed than ever before, because the current crises cannot be solved by individual disciplines, institutions or social groups alone. With the festival, Li-Be would like to venture something new: to deal with urgent questions of the present, artistically, scientifically, engaged and quite controversial, together with a large number of institutions and participants for ten days. The festival offers peculiar, unique formats that invite people to explore cooperation as a mode of understanding and action. Because, as an old Southeast Asian saying goes, »the elephant in the dark can only be recognized together«, emphasizes Asmus Trautsch, curator of the festival.

In addition to the main partner, dctp, the cooperating institutions include the ARGOS centre for audiovisual arts as well as Bozar in Brussels, the Atelier Impopulaire, the Botanisches Museum Berlin, the Berliner Künstlerprogramm des DAAD, the Cinéma Paris / Yorck Kinogruppe, the Deutsche Kinemathek, the Deutsche Oper Berlin, the Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop, the Goethe-Institut Brussels, the Hochschulübergreifende Zentrum Tanz, the Institut français Germany, Klangzeitort. The Institut für Neue Musik, the Leibniz-Zentrum für Literatur- und Kulturforschung, the Mobile Akademie Berlin, the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Spector Books, the Suhrkamp Verlag, the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin and the ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe.
