Moving Contexts: Curating Contemporary Art at Haus der Kunst in Munich and Gropius Bau in Berlin

Julienne Lorz, former chief curator of Haus der Kunst in Munich and Gropius Bau in Berlin, will reveal the behind-the-scenes of these prestigious art institutions in her lecture. Among other things, Lorz will also present her unusual professional story of her transition from dancer to curator.
