School partnerships

The focus of school projects is on artistic research: As part of the school partnerships initiated by HKW, on project days and weeks schoolchildren do research together with artists, examine the meaning of the topics negotiated at HKW for their own lives and work on their findings artistically in presentations or workshops. The aim is to integrate new topics and methods into school practice and to enable the world to be explored through artistic research.

Education in Concrete

School projects, presentations, manifesto
Presentations: May to June 2021

In the run-up to the exhibition Education Shock, students explore their school buildings, which were built in the 1960s and 1970s. They devise a manifesto for the design of good learning environments and present their projects during guided tours at the participating schools.

Dear Future, June 17 & 18, 2021

Schools are laboratories for the society of tomorrow. But how can they enable democratic, self-determined and sustainable action? At eleven Berlin schools, students, along with artists and everyday experts, explore the question of how schools can give them tools for actively shaping their lives.

New Experts!

In their school lives, teens in particular are experts in the immigration society yet they rarely have a say about it. Since December 2016, students at the Staatliche Europa-Schulen in Berlin have been seeking new imagery, presentation formats and narratives that do justice to their points of view.
