“Currencies and Collectives” asks leading thinkers and practitioners from the fields of art, architecture, philosophy, sociology, curating, fashion and literature to respond to the question: “Where and how can meetings and modes of exchange be developed that lead from a disposable trade in goods and ideas towards a prototype form of continuity and common ground?”

Together with an installation by Mike Bouchet, choreographer Richard Siegal will work with 30 performers to create a ‘social movement’ navigating visitors through this performative conference.

With: Richard Sennett (Sociologist, London/New York), Axel Honneth (Philosopher, Frankfurt/New York), Maria Lind (Curator, Stockholm), CassettePlaya (Fashion Designer, London), Teddy Cruz (Architect, San Diego), Stephen Duncombe (Sociologist, New York), Keller Easterling (Architect, New York), Patricia Falguières (Art Historian, Paris), Thomas Meinecke (Author and Musician, Munich), Peter Osborne (Philosopher, London), Mark von Schlegell (Author, Cologne) & the Pure Fiction class, and the Choir of the Städelschule.
