Word art on Hamburg's stages.

Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Hamburg stands for art and culture through and through. And over the years, poetry slams have gained a firm place in Hamburg's cultural programme. Those who want to see young lyrical talents have the opportunity to do so in Hamburg almost every week. The young poet scene meets here regularly on stage to compete and inspire the audience. And with the "artistic duels", the city even has its own unofficial championship. Here, you'll find an overview of current events and the most frequent venues.

Architecture of Hope - Chronicles of here and there

Architecture of Hope -
Digital Life Realities in Israel, Germany and Gaza in between 18.04.-05.05.2024 im Westwerk


Zur Ausstellung:
Jüdische Israelis - im Konkreten: Überlebende des 7. Oktobers - aus Sderot und palästinensische Israelis aus Rahat verarbeiten mit Wilhelmsburger Jugendlichen ihren Alltag, ihre Lebensrealitäten sowie die digitale Lebenswirklichkeit, mit der sie konfrontiert sind.


In den Kunstwerken werden die Narrative aus Israel, Deutschland und Gaza dazwischen - in Form von Video-Installationen - ausgestellt und laden zum Perspektivenwechsel ein und eröffnen neue Formen des Dialogs.


Denn nur durch Kunst und Kultur können wir Räume eröffnen, wo wir diese hoch emotionalisierten politischen Debatten transformieren können.


Die Ausstellung soll der Hamburger Gesellschaft wieder einen Raum der Begegnung und Hoffnung schenken.

50 Jahre Arditti Quartet

Arditti Quartet Marathon

The Arditti Quartet is the leading string quartet of the modern age. Its musicians have premiered more than 1,000 works since 1974 and collaborated with a number of legendary 20th- and 21st-century composers, including György Ligeti, Sofia Gubaidulina, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Iannis Xenakis and Pierre Boulez. In 2017, they were given the honour of being the first string quartet to perform in the Elbphilharmonie Recital Hall. The Arditti Quartet now returns to that concert hall to celebrate its 50th anniversary.

In two 70-minute segments, the four musicians pack in the most exciting pieces the contemporary music scene has to offer: from the video-animated sounds of Olga Neuwirth and Elliott Carter’s challenging String Quartet No. 3 to the timbral experimentations of Rebecca Saunders, to whom the Elbphilharmonie is dedicating an extensive spotlight this season. In conversation, the musicians also share rare insights into their work and look back at an eventful half a century. A defining moment of contemporary music.
