Since its relaunch in 2016, our website itself has been magazine-like. For this reason, selected entries from our museum blog are gradually being transferred here. In this way, we hope to ensure that relevant, timeless entries are easier to find via the topics presented on our website (show all topics). Anyone with a particular interest in texts created within the context of the blog can find all of the blog entries that have already been transferred together on this page.
For the time being, the entire blog is still available at www.jmberlin.de/blog-en. We now publish new articles, features, and online projects directly here on the website (show all online projects).
