Harry Kramer would have been 100 years old on January 25, 2025. The documenta participant and Kassel art professor is one of the city's most flamboyant artistic figures. The evening delves into Kramer's work and biography between film, jazz, dance and kinetic sculpture. Films by and about Harry Kramer will be shown and Wolfgang Hahn (artist and assistant in Kramer's studio), Meike Behm (Kunsthalle Lingen) and Anne Röhl (University of Siegen) will speak. The evening will be hosted by Catherine Mundt (HR2).

Harry Kramer 100 is a cooperation between the documenta archiv, the Museum for Sepulchral Culture and the City of Kassel and marks the start of the anniversary year “70 years of documenta”.
