On March 23, 2024, the solo exhibition “Mind the Memory Gap” by the artist Franz Wanner will open at Kindl – Zentrum für Zeitgenössische Kunst.

In his first solo exhibition in Berlin, Franz Wanner investigates present-day repercussions of the widespread exploitation through forced labor under National Socialism. Using photographs, texts, films and objects, the artist reveals social continuities from the Nazi era to today as well as gaps in Germany’s culture of remembrance.
