In keeping with tradition, our event offers a concentrated distillation of contemporary artistic positions and sheds light on current discourses in the world of culture. Renowned personalities from the worlds of art, politics, philosophy and business come together to cultivate an increasingly rare but essential culture of debate.

Together, we will pose central questions of our time and look at them from the perspectives of art and business: How do echo chambers shape our perception of freedom, cohesion and democracy? And what role can the economy play in strengthening artistic freedom?

The focus will be on the outstanding artistic contributions of the young talents supported by the Kulturkreis. You can look forward to a multifaceted programme with presentations by young artists, authors and musicians, complemented by an inspiring exhibition, the festive award ceremony and an exclusive dinner.

Make a note of October 9 to 11! Take advantage of this special opportunity to exchange ideas with artists and leading personalities.
