[Vilém Flusser Archive] 12 May 2024, Berlin: A Flusserian Picnic

You are cordially invited to join us for a gathering in celebration of Flusser’s 104th birthday. We will enjoy great food, drinks, and engaging conversations. Please remember to bring your own food, drinks, and perhaps a blanket for added comfort. It would also be nice if everyone could bring their favourite Flusser quote, which we can discuss together.

In addition to the birthday festivities, we will also use this occasion to bid farewell to Anita Jóri, whose contract at the archive concludes at the end of the month. It will be a lovely opportunity to say goodbye and share fond memories.

The event will take place in Treptower Park, located near the S-Bahn station. You can find the exact location here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/cAAbSWezRiGK1haX8

We look forward to seeing many of you there, and please feel free to bring other like-minded Flusserians along.
