The working group \u201eObject histories, memory and mediation - impulses and methods\u201c at Haus Bastian - Centre for Cultural Education of the National Museums in Berlin explores interfaces and synergies between provenance research and historical-political and cultural education work. Using practical examples, inputs and joint work phases, the participants will develop concrete methods and tools to utilise provenance research, object biographies and restitution - especially in the context of Nazi history - in educational formats. The working group, which focuses on exchange and reflection, is aimed at multipliers from museums, collections, archives and school and non-school educational work and is designed as a consecutive, analogue format.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Discourse series \u201eProvenance and Mediation in Conversation\u201c<\/strong><\/p>\n In four public evening events at Haus Bastian \u2013 Centre for Cultural Education, the discourse series brings together experts from research, museum practice, and education. Together, we will engage in a transdisciplinary exchange on current research findings and innovative exhibition and educational approaches. Topics to be discussed include: With which sources and under which structural conditions does provenance research work? What potential does its mediation and discussion hold for a broader public? What connections and alliances can exist between education and provenance research? What (political) challenges does it face? What possibilities and practices exist in the exhibition space, and what stories can and should be told? How can we, beyond the thematic framework of the \u201eArt, Looting, and Restitution\u201c project, think together about the historical interconnections of National Socialism and colonialism with regard to provenance research and education?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> 26. 08. 2026<\/p>\n<\/div> 18:00 - 20:00<\/p>\n<\/div> Haus Bastian - Centre for Cultural Education, Am Kupfergraben 10, 10117 Berlin<\/p>\n<\/div> 23. 09. 2026<\/p>\n<\/div> 18:00 - 20:00<\/p>\n<\/div> Haus Bastian - Centre for Cultural Education, Am Kupfergraben 10, 10117 Berlin<\/p>\n<\/div> 14. 10. 2026<\/p>\n<\/div> 18:00 - 20:00<\/p>\n<\/div> Haus Bastian - Centre for Cultural Education, Am Kupfergraben 10, 10117 Berlin<\/p>\n<\/div>Provenance Research and Sources: What Sources Cannot Tell Us \u2013 How We Research and Convey Nazi-Confiscated Art Today<\/h3><\/div>
