Material Worlds – The virtual Salon at IMAREAL
In October 2021, IMAREAL launched the lecture series “Material Worlds”, a virtual salon as an interdisciplinary communication platform on current research approaches in the field of material culture. The series will continue in an online format “after Corona”. This will allow participants to meet regularly, even if they are located in different places.
The virtual salon is intended to provide a platform for discussion in as pleasant an atmosphere as possible. Participation and contributions are strongly encouraged! Depending on your interests and time available, you can choose how to participate and how long to spend in the Salon – even with a glass of wine next to your laptop.
