Exhibition "The Album. Coming to terms with colonial family history - but how?"

From 19. 01 - 31.01.2026 the exhibition " The Album. Reappraising colonial family history - but how?" will be presented in the foyer of the deanery building (Altes Kloster | Mensa). The exhibition focuses on colonial photographs and image archives from a very personal perspective - namely one's own family history - and takes a critical approach to racism.

On Friday, January 23at 2 p.m., Nicolai Messerschmidt will give a tour of the exhibition and talk about his experiences with the exhibition and the process of creating it. Afterwards there will be an opportunity for questions and discussion.
