Programme Tip

Friday, January 31st, 2025, 10:00 p.m. Social Seating. Rotundenprojekt Nr. 9

Rotunda tour with Ulrike Kvech-Hoppe.
For one year, sitting in the rotunda of the Pinakothek der Moderne will become a collective experience.
For a whole year, visitors to Pinakothek der Moderne will be greeted by a world of different types of furniture for seating. These invite people to take a seat and interact. The encounter between the museum visitors is staged in the museum space as social seating. The focus here is on the opportunity for open communication with other museum visitors as well as our relationship to seating and to objects that function as seating.
In german lanuage. Participation included in the admission price. Children and young people under 18 years of age receive free entry. Limited number of places to participate. Participation tickets for guided tours are issued at the cashpoint.
