Photos: Hannes von der Fecht For the "relations" tour "Images of the East" we have curated theme nights which, by combining insider and outsider perspectives, shall convey impressions of everyday life in countries of eastern Europe. Many of the artists and theoreticians we invited to participate live and work in the countries they will speak about, and many of our guests have emigrated abroad, while others commute between two or more countries. But every one of them has their own unique connection to the societies of eastern Europe under discussion. The participation of writers, journalists, and academics from Germany shall enable comparisons and contrasts to be drawn with life here. For all their diversity, each of the theme nights revolves around a single question: what actually shapes our perception of the countries of eastern Europe? Who or what determines the criteria, the focus, and ultimately estimation? And which visions of Europe are actually in circulation at present?
