The renowned cultural scientist talks about the survival of the 19th century mindset.
There is no doubt that Romanticism has shaped contemporary concepts of nature (between escapism and transfiguration), our ideas of love and aesthetics of the sublime and kitsch. In the exhibition "Romanticism today?", Böhme asks with a view to the works of art: How does Romanticism continue to have an effect today, how is it updated, what form does its legacy take?
The discussion will be moderated by Olivia Franke, Artistic Director of Neues Kunsthaus Ahrenshoop
