With the Open Humboldt Festival, the Humboldt-Universität unites science with art.
Theatre, dance, concerts and exhibitions, discussions and excursions – from 16th–29th August 2021, the Humboldt-Universität invites you to the Open Humboldt Festival at the Campus Nord in Berlin Mitte.
The festival unties science with art and opens them up to a wide audience. Admission is free, and most events will be held in the open air.
Hermann von Helmholtz and Rudolf Virchow – Research on behalf of society
This year, the Humboldt-Universität celebrates the 200th birthday of two scientists who combined research with a social mission and wanted to have an impact on society – Hermann von Helmholtz and Rudolf Virchow. The pioneering acoustic experiments of Hermann von Helmholtz will be presented in concerts. An exhibition will engage with the socio-political ideas of the doctor Rudolf Virchow.
Migration in motion – How tango spread around the world
To mark the 100th birthday of Astor Piazzolla, the festival will also show how tango spread around the world and what culture has to do with migration – by means of a dance gala, a film screening, panel discussions and, of course, milongas.
Kosmos Lectures, Theatre of the Anthropocene and Black Voices
The extensive programme is supplemented by Kosmos Lectures, a Future Forum on sustainability, performances and workshops by the Theatre of the Anthropocene, excursions and lectures, and a reading and conversation with the writers Emilia Roig and Katharina Warda.
Entry to all events is free. Most will be held in the open air. Registration is required.
