City talk with artist Betina Kuntzsch and museum director Dr. Urte Evert at the Ernst Thälmann memorial

Anniversary program "10 years unveiled. Berlin and its monuments"

meeting point: Ernst Thälmann Memorial, Greifswalder Straße 52, 10405 Berlin

Prenzlauer Berg and Spandau have shared a monument for 10 years: the monumental work by the Soviet-Ukrainian artist Lev Kerbel (1917-2003) was unveiled in Thälmann Park in 1986 - and it was decided to dismantle it just four years later. in 1990, however, only the steles with quotes from Erich Honecker and Ernst Thälmann disappeared, which have been on display in "Unveiled" since 2016. The Thälmann head remained in place and has been causing a stir ever since.

In 2019, artist Betina Kuntzsch won the competition for the "artistic commentary on the Ernst Thälmann monument" with her work "Vom Sockel denken". The debate about the historical classification still flares up from time to time. Take part in the discussion about the power of art in the controversial city memorial!Translated with DeepL
