Startpunkt:Exploration | the temporary bauhaus-archiv

Details

The temporary bauhaus-archiv in Berlin is hosting an event called "Startpunkt:Exploration" on January 18, 2024. This event, titled "hands on nails – we are open," aims to explore the phenomenon of nail art from an artistic, social, and economic perspective. The project takes inspiration from the nail studios that have become ubiquitous in the city's streets, seeking to understand the actors and scenes involved in this industry. It delves into questions such as whether nail design can be considered art, craftsmanship, or a service, and its connection to the Bauhaus movement. The event will feature happenings, performances, workshops, and discussions, including the Moss Nail Project by Maharu Maeno and Nadja's magnetic Nail Art Studio by Nadja Buttendorf. The evening will conclude with isla radio. The discourse salon will be held at the temporary bauhaus-archiv in Berlin and will be conducted in both English and German. Admission to the event is free.
