Description

The House of World Cultures is a leading centre for the contemporary arts and a venue for projects breaking through artistic boundaries.
The House of World Cultures has set itself the task of presenting cultures from outside Europe through their fine arts, theatre, music, literature, film and media in order to engage them in public discourse with European cultures. The House of World Cultures’ programme focuses on the contemporary arts and current developments in the cultures of Africa, Asia and Latin America as well as on the artistic and cultural consequences of globalisation. It gives priority to projects that explore the possibilities of both intercultural co-operation and its presentation.
Projects are developed and presented in close co-operation with international experts, curators and artists.
