Year of American Culture in Berlin
„american season 2004“ is an initiative of the Federal Minister for Culture, Dr. Christina Weiss, in conjunction with the exhibition, „MoMA in Berlin“. Scheduled to take place during the exhibition period, this program of American cultural events was conceived as an expansion and enrichment of what promises to be an exceptional exhibition. The Berliner Festspiele have already commenced work on the program's coordination, and numerous cultural institutions in Berlin have been asked to participate in the program which seeks to offer audiences a panoramic view of art and culture in twentieth-century America. One of its main objectives is the reflection of the traditional, yet complex relations between Germany and the United States. Federal Minister Dr. Christina Weiss has taken on the auspices for the project as a whole.
The following institutions have agreed to participate in the Berlin program: Akademie der Künste, American Academy, Art Forum Berlin, Berliner Festspiele, Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung, Deutsche Guggenheim, Deutsche Oper Berlin, Deutsche Symphonie Orchester Berlin, Filmmuseum Berlin, Contemporary Fine Arts gallery, Hebbel am Ufer, Kunst-Werke Berlin e.V., Maxim Gorki Theater, Neuköllner Oper, Schaubühne am Lehniner Platz, Sophiensæle, Universität der Künste, Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz et al.
