UP NEXT AT SYNNIKA

Dear friends of Synnika e.V., SAVE THE DATE: Our next exhibition »Internal Review« by Oliver Hardt will open in one month, on Saturday, 14 February 2026 at 6 pm. Find the press release on our website at: https://synnika.space/events/internal-review How fragile are cultural institutions when political power intervenes? In his first solo exhibition »Internal Review«, artist and filmmaker Oliver Hardt examines the consequences of state intervention using the example of the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) in Washington, D.C. Building on his documentary film ›The Black Museum‹ (2018), which traces the long history of the NMAAHC's establishment, the exhibition »Internal Review« links historical struggles for visibility with contemporary authoritarian interventions. In this context, architecture appears not only as a form, but also as a catalyst for socio-political change and resilience. CLOSING SOON: We would also like to draw your attention once again to the final day of the current exhibition »NONFERENCE«, showcasing works by Lars Karl Becker, Lain Iwakura & Jeronimo Voss, Stylianos Papavasiliou, Martin Stiehl, and Clara Wildberger. The exhibition will be open this Friday, 17 January, from 3 to 9 pm. Starting from 7 pm, the official closing will feature an electronic live improvisation by the infamous Members of Payday. We would be very happy to see you on one or both occasions!
