Silent reading rave – Read Alone Together!

You want to read more but can’t find the time or motivation? The cultural project Silent Reading Rave brings people together to read – without any distractions. Each person reads on their own and yet everyone reads together. Whether it's a novel, a magazine or books for your studies: take your reading material with you, find a spot in the exhibition space and start reading!

Subject to change due to the current situation.

This event takes place in the framework of the exhibition Orlando – Based on a Novel by Virginia Woolf. Published in 1928, Virginia Woolf’s avant-garde novel Orlando tells the story of a young noble person who has lived for centuries without ageing and has the mysterious ability to change sex. In 1992, film-maker Sally Potter devised what has become a classic adaptation of the book with actress Tilda Swinton in the title role. The exhibition of the same name, developed by Swinton, shows the work of contemporary artists and photographers who explore the main themes dealt with in Orlando’s story: gender fluidity, the idea of boundless consciousness and the prospect of living forever.
