Concert Series at Kulturforum
Berlin, Germany | Ongoing
About
Founded in 2021, the NOACK concert series presents the finest soloists and ensembles from around the world on the grounds of the Werkstattgalerie and in the Great Hall of the Bildgiesserei. The unique interdisciplinary atmosphere and versatile programming have already found a regular following. A Saturday evening at the NOACK Kulturforum is more than just a concert visit: the doors open at 6:00 p.m. for the listeners to enjoy the current exhibition in the gallery with a glass of wine. The performance begins at 7:00pm and is usually curated by the artists. After a handful of encores, audience members are invited to the Cultural Forum restaurant to enjoy dinner with the artists. A three-course meal specially prepared by Chef Reza Daeinabi, with a corresponding selection of wines, is the culmination of the evening.

“It is my responsibility to empower the students to continuously teach themselves by cultivating the urge to find, analyze and implement information in a contextual manner”
By employing methodologies such as backwards learning, design thinking, and case study, the students are able to grasp the principle of the topic’s formation and its contextual co-relation. The interdisciplinary approach allows each student to understand the subject from various perspectives in historical context, enabling them to accurately apply newly gained knowledge into their lifetime work.
