Inside

An evening between film art, memory, and Bochum's city park

On September 30, 2026, the Kunstmuseum Bochum opens its doors for a special film screening with an accompanying discussion: I WRITE AGAINST OBLIVION combines documentary precision with political depth and is part of the exhibition The Public Green. Admission is free, and the meeting point is directly at the art museum on Kortumstraße.

A film that resonates

At the center is filmmaker Lynne Sachs, who engages with memory, language, archival material, and social issues in her work. The film approaches thinker Silvia Federici and the historical struggles for common goods and social spaces. The result is not a classic evening in the cinema, but a multifaceted event experience with discussion, reflection, and a rich audience atmosphere.

Fitting for the exhibition The Public Green

The event thematically connects to the exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Bochum, which addresses public space, community, and shared resources in celebration of the 150th anniversary of Bochum's city park. It is here that the special connection is formed: film, art, and urban space intertwine and make the topic of the commons experienceable in a sensual and analytical way.

The venue: Kunstmuseum Bochum as a cultural meeting point

The Kunstmuseum Bochum is one of the most important addresses for contemporary art in the city. Its location on Kortumstraße, good connections, and barrier-free accessibility create ideal conditions for a relaxed cultural evening. Those who arrive early can enjoy the museum and the exhibition before the screening at their leisure.

What visitors can expect

The program includes a film screening, a discussion with Lynne Sachs and Betty Schiel, as well as an evening that connects art education and social debate. The atmosphere is expected to be focused, open, and inspiring. Anyone interested in film, exhibitions, political education, and contemporary culture will find a strong format with genuine conversation value here.

Conclusion: I WRITE AGAINST OBLIVION promises an intelligent, atmospheric evening at the Kunstmuseum Bochum. Anyone wishing to experience film art with conviction, exhibition relevance, and stimulating exchange should attend this event live.
