Further information

The exhibition features extraordinary works from collections across Germany—including loans from the Jewish Museum Berlin (
) and from Jewish communities and private collections. Works by contemporary Jewish artists explore questions of identity and belonging. In personal interviews, Jewish people share what it means to be Jewish in Germany today.
A diverse accompanying program featuring literature, music, food, film, and more is also offered.
