Guided phone tour: „Culture on Call“ – Mohammed Sami

  • Fridericianum

Friedrichsplatz 18, 34117 Kassel

On the occasion of Mohammed Sami’s exhibition, the Fridericianum is once again offering the tour format “Culture on Call”. Anyone interested is invited to participate in a one-hour guided tour of the show by phone from home.
Sami’s large-scale paintings defy a single definite interpretation. Rather, the mysterious depictions of empty spaces evoke memories and emotions. Viewers can only sense the former presence of people through subtle clues; the people themselves are never visible. Often, bright light streams in and casts shadows. Everyday scenes appear both unfamiliar and familiar at the same time.
The guided phone tour highlights these characteristic features in Sami’s work, explores the visualization of memories, and creates a space for shared reflection and discussion.

Here’s how it works: The participants receive the access information and comfortably dial in from home on the day of the event. The tour is being hosted by a moderator. During the tour, the participants’ speakers are turned off. The phone line are opened for questions and exchange occasionally.

Registration via www.beianrufkultur.de as well as by phone under 040 209 404 36 Participation is free of charge.
