Forgotten
Life Stories
Off to the museum
With new offers, we invite you to actively engage with biographies and stories of injustice from the Nazi era, memory, and reappraisal through looted art. In museums in Berlin and Saxony, we are piloting formats that combine art and culture, history, and political education, and aim to encourage you to stand up for human dignity, empathy, and democracy.
A commemorative project
When museums research the provenance of their artworks, it is not only ownership that comes to light, but also fates. With „Art, Looting and Restitution - Forgotten Life Stories“, the partners involved are remembering the victims of persecution and expropriation. Who were these people, what happened to their artworks? And what does it mean to their descendants when a looted work of art is returned?
