Offred from our last evening moved further to England, but you will have the chance to meet the new Offred, also a refugee from Gilead. Offred is not her real name.

Das Leben ist anderswo / Life Is Elsewhere

Galerie im Körnerpark
Opening: June 3, 2012, 12 p.m.
Duration: June 5, 2012 to July 22, 2012
Artists: Oreet Ashery (IL/GB), Mariana Castillo Deball (MX/DE), Chan Sook Choi (KR/DE), Kaspars Goba (LV), Nilbar Güres (TR), Bodil Furu (NO), Mathilde ter Heijne (NL/DE), J&K (Janne Schäfer, DE; Kristine Agergaard, DK), Nadin Reschke (DE), Maya Schweizer (FR/DE)
Curator: Dorothee Bienert
The exhibition utilises the event of this year’s 275th anniversary of the founding of the Bohemian village, one of the settlements of religious refugees in Berlin, to talk about the potential of cultural and religious diversity for the future of the immigration society. One of the most important preconditions for the productivity of cultural pluralism is the adherence to the human rights of freedom of religion and conscience. The artists’ installations, photos and videos explore in very different ways issues of belief, diversity and tolerance/intolerance.
