With the opening of the exhibition NEVER AGAIN! Against the Forgetting of NS Crimes, the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn invites a discussion on the remembrance of national socialist crimes. The new exhibition connects artistic positions, historical evidence, and contemporary forms of commemoration.
The focus is on the question of how the crimes of National Socialism can be remembered, communicated, and kept publicly visible today. The exhibition views remembrance not as a completed process, but as a continuous societal task. Art, historical testimonies, and current commemorative practices offer different approaches to a topic that is of central importance for the present and future.
