Impressions – Summer Party 2023

Our graduates of the summer semester 2023 - congratulations!

Super sunny summer party – on Saturday, July 15, 2023 we said goodbye to our graduates of the summer semester 2023. Together with them we offered a full program: final exhibition of the bachelor and master graduates of the summer semester and extensive work show with films, photographs, books, installations, animations and performances. The academy rushed from 2 to 10 p.m. from the basement to the attic, from interactive games to A.I. Fashion, BDSM to living BLOB! Afterwards, the party continued in the cafeteria.

The ceremonial presentation of the certificate by Rector Dr. Barbara M. Eggert, Dean Prof. Peter Ott and Managing Director Stefan Grünenwald and a greeting from the AStA took place in the Kulturpark Berg, on our beautiful campus, in bright sunshine.
