For the opening of ZINNOBER, the kick-off of the art season in Hannover, Sebastian Stein and Noor Mertens host a public discussion with Kurt Ryslavy, Andrea von Lüdinghausen, Mareike Poehling and other invited guests. Here, questions about the structural constraints of artistic authorship and production, the relative autonomy of artists and potentials for institutional critique will be discussed.

After the discussion, the opening of the double exhibition of Kurt Ryslavy and ROOMS TO LET will take place. The satellite exhibition at Leonardo Hotel is open from 5 p.m. onwards. There is a shuttle bus (free of charge) between the Kunstverein and the hotel. From 9 p.m., the band Sorry Gilberto (Berlin) will play. You are very welcome to discuss together with us, visit the two exhibitions and dance afterwards. Drinks and snacks will be provided.
