Together we will explore texts from the reading room, which the C& Center of Unfinished Business has set up in the foyer of DAS MINSK for the Noah Davis exhibition. September 14, 2024, 2 PM and September 15, 2024, 4 PM

The temporary reading room features publications related to colonialism in various ways. Ranging from a memoir about Wolfgang Mattheuer’s work to the biography of Spike Lee, and an analysis of 21st century capital markets. For this edition, the C& Center of Unfinished Business’ collection is expanded with selections from DAS MINSK’s own book collection, thereby facilitating a dialogue between the diverse knowledge and book holdings.

Guided by art educators of DAS MINSK, the participants actively engage with the books by selecting a quotation or a short paragraph from a chosen book to read aloud to one another. Through this sequential reading, the group creates their own associative narrative together, opening up new perspectives to deepen ideas and discussions. No prior reading is required.

Note: Participation is free with a current exhibition ticket and annual pass.
