Exhibition project
Multimedia Exhibition (Bad Freienwalde, Berlin, Weimar, Hamburg)
Head of the exhibition: Prof. Dr. Martin Sabrow
The exhibition explores the uprisings, assassinations and attempted coups in the early years of the Weimar Republic. Eight perspectives illustrate how extremists and separatists brought Germany to the brink of civil war, in which way the state responded to the terror, and how the language and literature of the time addressed the brutality of the events. At the same time, the multimedia exhibition on the excesses of violence between 1918 and 1923 aims to raise questions about a continuity of political violence in Germany - beyond the Weimar Republic to the present day.
