We invite you to the opening celebration of our special exhibition Made in Germany? Art and Identity in a Global Nation, on view from September 13, 2024 through January 5, 2025.

Following an introduction by exhibition curator Lynette Roth, Berlin-based artist Henrike Naumann will present a lecture-performance.

Henrike Naumann is a 2024/25 fellow at the Berlin Artistic Research Program. Born in Zwickau in the German Democratic Republic in 1984, Naumann experienced Neo-Nazis as a dominant youth culture in the 1990s. In many of her works, including Ostalgie (2019), which is featured in Made in Germany?, she arranges furniture and objects to create spaces that reflect on sociopolitical problems, exploring the friction between opposing political opinions via personal everyday aesthetics.

Following the discussion, guests are invited to visit the exhibition on Level 3. This event is part of ArtsThursdays, a university-wide initiative supported by Harvard University Committee on the Arts (HUCA).
