Jewish in Real Time – New Visibility

Talk and Concert as Part of Our Cultural Summer (video recording available, in German)

Jewish life in Germany has undergone a fundament shift in the past 20 years — a new visibility has emerged, with diverse voices from various communities that define themselves as Jewish. Back in 2001, the opening of the Jewish Museum Berlin stood under a very different sign; it was celebrated in the press, in semi-ironic tones, as the “founding act of the Berlin republic.”

7.45–8.15 pm INTERMISSION

8.15 pm: Concert by The Dirty Honkers

French meets Israeli meets Canadian — saxophonist Florent Mannat, hip-hop producer Gad Baruch and saxophonist and singer Andrea Roberts came together in Berlin to form their own electro-swing band. This unusual trio has been rocking through Europe and the world since 2010. They blend repeating beats, loops and unusual voice effects into a sound entirely their own. The Dirty Honkers are known for remarkably energetic live shows that are a treat for the eyes and ears.
