Discovery through weaving: Die Junge Akademie science historian Lara Keuck and designer Hella Jongerius discuss the relationship between weaving and knowledge, and weaving as a form of critical enquiry. The feminist theory of weaving epistemology describes the craft as a model for combining different and sometimes contrasting perspectives which stem from different eras or strata of society.

How can woven textiles help us understand the world?

What can their manufacturing process teach us about the underlying interconnectedness of apparent antitheses such as tradition and innovation, coherence and dissonance, or the natural and the invented? What forms can this take? How will weaving and the materiality and aesthetics of tapestry be used to scrutinise these dichotomies?

These questions form the basis for the discussion between Lara Keuck and Hella Jongerius. Jongerius invites viewers to join the two speakers in her design studio Jongeriuslab. There, she will present some of her pieces which provide insight into her practice of woven research – the core of her current work and her most recent exhibition “Interlace, Woven Research” (Lafayette Anticipations 2019, Paris).

The public is invited to take part virtually in the visit to her studio. The audience is also welcome to participate in a question and answer round following the conversation.

The talk will be in English. A livestream will be available on the Die Junge Akademie Youtube channel.

      "Censorship" - Short films in discussion

      What does censorship mean concretely, in art, in everyday life, in one's own thinking?

      On the occasion of its 20th anniversary, Die Junge Akademie invites you to an evening of short films and discussions as part of the series diejungeakademie@. The programme was curated by Nausikaä El-Mecky (art historian at the University of Pompeu Fabra and member of Die Junge Akademie) in cooperation with Anna Henckel-Donnersmarck (co-founder of the shorts/salon & director of the Berlinale Shorts). Together with filmmakers and experts, the audience is invited to dive into the topic of "censorship" through conversation.

      The event is part of the activities surrounding the 20th anniversary of Die Junge Akademie. Admission is free of charge. The minimum age for admission to the events is 18. The event will be held in German. Interested?
