Dramatist René Pollesch will stage a performance of Tod eines Praktikanten (Death of a Trainee) in one of the Galleries over two evenings. With a running time of just under an hour this high energy performance merges performance art, spoken drama and topical aspects of critical theory into a new form of theatre.

Performed in German with a digital translation, the performance develops into an installation that remains in the Gallery for the duration of the period.
