Panel Discussion: The Construction of the Public Sphere

The art of the documentary has no monopoly on the assertion and representation of reality. Images and texts depicting reality are first and foremost a part of the news, scientific strategies, political campaigns as well as advertising. The line between reality and propaganda is often thin, often so thin that propaganda itself turns into reality.

In this panel discussion, journalist and commentator Daniel Binswanger will speak with the artists Rabih Mroué and Olinka Vištica (Museum of Broken Relationships), the philosopher Ludger Schwarte (Kunstakademie Düsseldorf), and festival director Boris Nikitin about truth and manipulation through images, historiography, and the production of the public sphere.
