Poetry Slam

Word art on Hamburg's stages.

Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Hamburg stands for art and culture through and through. And over the years, poetry slams have gained a firm place in Hamburg's cultural programme. Those who want to see young lyrical talents have the opportunity to do so in Hamburg almost every week. The young poet scene meets here regularly on stage to compete and inspire the audience. And with the "artistic duels", the city even has its own unofficial championship. Here, you'll find an overview of current events and the most frequent venues.

    It‘s time to get serious! The message of this ProArte X concert title is quite clear. It leaves us in no doubt that whatever we can expect from this evening’s artists, it is going to be »Serious Music«. Regardless of how we wish to interpret this message, we can be sure that the artists themselves take their music very seriously. Giorgi Gigashvili is a highly versatile pianist who will be joined by singer Nikala Zubiashvili. Known for his flexibility as a live electronics artist, Nikala is also one of the most exciting young talents on the Georgian music scene. Gigashvili is returning to the Elbphilharmonie after his success last season in our ProArte series of concerts for upcoming pianists. The pair perform artfully and with obvious enjoyment as their musical experimentation takes them from Beethoven to Jazz and from Ravel to Hip-Hop.

    Göksu Kunak: Suspension

    The physical demolition itself becomes the monumental stage for the second BIG MOMENT, opening a new chapter in Kampnagel’s performance history. As part of the first construction phase, Hall k1 will be restored to its original scale. Partition walls are removed, exposing the site’s historical layers – from its industrial past and four decades of performance history to its future transformation. The former black-box theatre becomes a daylight-filled hall for experimental arts with direct access to the garden. As rigid spatial boundaries are dismantled, the architecture becomes newly accessible, negotiating the deconstruction of barriers at the very moment of their physical collapse. The construction site provides a striking setting for Berlin-based artist Göksu Kunak, who, during a residency, transforms this moment of rupture into a choreographic and sonic intervention. Under the working title SUSPENSION the building site becomes a contemporary dispositif in which bodies, labour and desire continuously produce one another. Using perforation – the cutting, opening and occupying of space – as an artistic method, Kunak temporarily disempowers architecture to reveal new social relations. Through evocative imagery and a precise sensitivity to material encounters, the erotic potential of the construction site is translated into a fragile yet monumental aesthetic. Demolition thus becomes a powerful metaphor for the deconstruction of masculinity.
