The control room of the Blue Salon has finally been renovated! After many applications, a lot of planning work, building inspections and approvals, we can say: the stress was worth it, this is how you can work!
The cinema is being rebuilt. In 2017, the order went out to the building construction office, and now, about 5 years later, something is happening. We are happy! The control room is being enlarged, new projection windows, new ventilation, new sound system. The building construction office is working hard and we can only wait and see when it can go on again.
It was two wonderful weeks in front of the HfG. Great films, great people, great weather. Here are some impressions of this year's Open Air Cinema in pictures!
As Sepp Herberger said: After the Open Air is before the Open Air!
The 30th anniversary film festival was great, thanks to all who were there! We'll clean up briefly and then we'll see you again on the green lawn with the colorful chairs for the Open Air cult sneak nights starting July 29.
From July 12 - July 16, 2022, a film festival will be held to celebrate the 30th anniversary of our university by presenting a colorful selection of HfG films. Each day, a film from the Zeitbild Lab (2019-2022) will be shown, along with a selection of films from 30 years of HfG film history. In addition to the filmmakers, other guests will be present to tell us about 30 years of HfG.
We are very very much looking forward to the 30th anniversary of the HfG Film Festival. To increase the anticipation even more here is a trailer that shows a little bit in which direction it will go! Thanks for the trailer, Knut!
In collaboration with film professor Serpil Turhan, it has long been an affair of the heart to bring the work of Chantal Akerman to the people! We are very pleased to be able to show some of the Belgian filmmaker's films in the Blue Salon this semester.
From June 02 to 19, 2022, the graduation exhibition "Graduation Studio" will be held in the atriums of the HfG. In the Blue Salon there will be a show of diploma films on four dates.
Where is the key to the Blue Salon? For almost two years we were no longer in it - forced break thanks to renovation. But now it's starting again, there is cinema in the Blauer Salon again. We are very much looking forward to finally watching movies together with people again and talking shop over a cool drink! Who will be there?
Early for the start of spring, in anticipation of the 30th anniversary of the HfG and for all those who do not know what to do in the lecture-free period: The new edition of the HfG Videothek. 30 new films about fun, seriousness, knowledge and art. We hope there is something for everyone!
