The “Deutsches Museum für Schwarze Unterhaltung und Black Music” (German Museum for Black Entertainment and Black Music) is Germany’s leading museum for black culture, popular music and history. It houses a comprehensive archive of vinyl records, magazines, autographs and memorabilia that are exhibited at a vibrant location for the communication and discussion of black history. A digital tour of the museum immerses the visitor into a movement that brings together stars from Mola Adebisi to Tic Tac Toe all the way to Sydney Youngblood. In their juxtaposition they gain a new visibility, so that similarities and differences in the staging strategies of the stars as well as the reception of the German audience are under discussion. Joana Tischkau, Anta Helena Recke, Elisabeth Hampe und Frieder Blume return to HAU Hebbel am Ufer after their residency two years ago. and present a newly developed, discursive as well as performative schedule of online programming with local guests as an exhibition for Berlin.
