Colonial History in Art

Once a month, the Hamburger Kunsthalle takes you on an exciting tour through art history. The tour dates until 28 November 2025 take place as part of the »PHŒNiX festival« (by einhornkollektiv) under the topic of colonial interferences.

In an interactive tour, on the basis of selected artworks the colonial past and colonial continuities in the Hamburger Kunsthalle's collection are discussed. With in-depth background information, artistic approaches, and the support of artificial intelligence, we learn about colonial historical references and trace their effects into the present day.
