For Art and Mutual Interest. Festival OSTEN

2025

Bitterfeld-Wolfen

How can one capture in a book what Festival OSTEN is all about and what it feels like to experience the festival? And how can a printed book, just like the festival itself, invite people to engage in dialogue? 

The result is a book about the festival—or rather, a festival in book form. The book offers many entry points through the festival’s various venues. It presents a selection of projects and includes texts reflecting on the festival’s origins and the work that went into it.
