Free admission.
At the temporary bauhaus-archiv, Knesebeckstr. 1, 10623 Berlin.

The six-part unpacking events dynamically presents the themes of the exhibition Unpacking Jak R. Masier. In discussions with experts from the academic and professional fields and in live unpacking events, the museum team examines the hidden treasures of the artist’s estate. The findings will be documented on site by the designers sieblersiebler, which will steadily change the exhibition as more of the estate comes to light.

Museums and archives are where today’s treasures are collected and preserved for future generations. But is this feasible in times of sustainability and downsizing? We discuss this problem with various experts and decide together: what stays and what goes?
