Comic Salon mit Ulli Lust

Ulli Lust presents the eagerly awaited follow-up volume to her non-fiction comic bestseller Die Frau als Mensch, which won the German Non-Fiction Prize in 2025: Die Frau als Mensch 2: Shamaninnen

Reindeer snack on a few toadstools before fleeing the approaching cold, preceded by a group of nomads. On their way to the winter camp, they undertake one last great hunt... Children are born, others die, the Venus of Willendorf is created. But does she really represent a goddess? Or was she a shaman's tool, an avatar for traveling through spirit worlds, as they can still be found in myths and fairy tales today?

The author reads from the book, combining archaeology, anthropology, art history and gender studies to create a multi-layered view of female agency and human creative power.

An evening about myths, visibility and comics as knowledge transfer.
