For the exhibition In Conversation with Ghosts, artists were invited to explore specific moments in the history of the Eierhäuschen: its use as a props warehouse for GDR television broadcasting in the 1960s, the Café der Jugend set up here on the occasion of the X. World Youth Festival in 1973 or the radio program Sieben bis Zehn: Sonntagmorgen in Spreeathen , which was broadcast several times from the Eierhäuschen.
For the exhibition, Maithu Bùi, Franziska Pierwoss, Josefine Reisch, Ernst Markus Stein and Jackie Grassmann, Gabriele Stötzer, Verena Kyselka and Paula Gehrmann enter into a dialog with the ghosts of that time. They address these historical moments in film and room installations, textile works, prints and specially produced radio broadcasts. The works combine personal stories with collective memories, open up a view of the social realities of the GDR and address both familiar and repressed moments of this past.
The exhibition also includes a lively and varied program of talks, live radio broadcasts, readings, guided tours, a performative aperitif, workshops, music and an evening of films from Vietnam.
