At the end of documenta, the conference "Let there be lumbung" took place at ruruHaus from 20 to 23 September. Numerous speakers and discussion participants looked back on 100 days of documenta fifteen, spoke about historical and cultural contexts of the lumbung idea and at the same time dared to look forward. Day 2 of the conference was a highlight with a contribution by John Roosa (University of British Columbia, Vancouver) on "Dangerous Images and Moral Panic Attacks in Indonesia from 1965 to the Present" and an emphatic plea by Charles Esche (Van Abbemuseum Eindhoven) entitled "The First Exhibition of the 21st Century".

 

The video recordings can be accessed via the documenta fifteen YouTube channel.
