Bei uns. Bei Euch! Buchkatalog

Last fall the industrial city of Chemnitz was selected as Europe's Cultural Capital of 2025. Since then, at least the German art scene has looked with astonishment at the city in Saxony, discredited by the German right wing. It found a vital art scene that was already non-conformist even during the GDR era, and includes the collective AG Geige and the Gruppe Clara Mosch, founded in 1977 in and around what was then known as Karl Marx City. Today, the tradition of collective work continues, through groups such as Bikini Kommando. The exhibition Bei uns. Bei euch! is the first to document encounters between Berlin and Chemnitz artists.
