Bengal Stream

Bangladesh’s architectural world is masala (Bengali মাসালা) — an intoxicating mixture of contrasts. An enduring witness to this is the architecture, as the exhibition of 60 projects by established and young Bengali architects shows.

Paulskirche

In the hope that Frankfurt would become the new German capital, the Paulskirche was rebuild as a potential seat for the parliament in 1947\48, having been severely damaged by bombing raids. Under the leadership of Rudolf Schwarz, a consciously plain space was developed to represent the admission of guilt and the democratic new beginning.

September 7, 2019 – February 16, 2020 \ Opening: Fri, September 6, 7 p.m.

In Norwegian Landscapes

A tradition in Norwegian architecture emphasizes tactile and spatial experiences and reflects the relationship between buildings and landscape. Sensitivity to place, experimental tectonics and profound attention to detail characterize the tradition. Norwegian architecture is challenged by new dense urban development in major cities.

September 14, 2019 – January 19, 2020 \ Opening: Fri, September 13, 7 p.m.

One room. One building. One city.

The DAM for kids and young people

Architecture is not self-explanatory. The significance of architecture merits interpretation and comment. Be it searching for traces in the urban space, a journey through time in the permanent exhibition “From primitive hut to skyscraper”, or as a master builder on the LEGO building site — the aim of the museum’s educational events is to help people discover the world that’s on the doorstep, finetune their (aesthetic) perception and understand the language of architecture.
