Art exhibition: Marc Chagall “Images on the Bible” – until the end of May 2021.

Marc Chagall (July 7, 1887 – March 28, 1985) is one of the most important painters of the 20th century. His works hang in the largest and most important museums in the world. The Bible was for Marc Chagall a book of peace, an “echo of nature”. Therefore, when he returned to France in 1947 after World War II and the Holocaust, he was determined to illustrate the Bible. In the exhibition in the jakob-kemenate 46 original lithographs can be seen. 

Admission free of charge. Negative test result or proof of full vaccination required. More info here. 

Captcha – Gordon Endt & Miran Özpapazyan – until June 13th, 2021

The exhibition “Captcha” by Gordon Endt and Miran Özpapazyan takes a photographic look at the city of Braunschweig. “The photographs alternate between snapshots and street photography,” explains the artist collective. “The sense of the brief moment captured creates a new narrative through decontextualization and rearrangement.” Through their project, the young artists aim to create a subjective document of time that connects their images and creates a new exploration of how photography is perceived.

Admission free of charge. Negative test result or proof of full immunization required. More info here.
