Lecture series on the art history of the Tiergarten district
In the 1910s and 1920s, Berlin's Tiergarten district was the place to be for German fashion designers. The aspiring "fashion artists" deliberately opened their studios, soon to be called "fashion palaces", in the vicinity of an art-loving neighborhood, on Lenné, Bellevue and Tiergartenstrasse. Followed by international beauty companies such as Elizabeth Arden.
A picturesque walk into fashionable Berlin from the 1910s to the 1930s, into the exclusive model houses of the Tiergarten district, the "golden years" of "Berlin haute couture", into a world that was largely forgotten after the radical break with the Nazi era.
A lecture by Dr. Gesa Kessemeier: Dr. Gesa Kessemeier, fashion and contemporary historian. Employee of the project "The Art History(s) of the Tiergarten District" at the Berlin Art Library.
Next year, her book “Fashion City Berlin – History of Berlin’s Clothing Industry and Fashion Salons 1836-1936” will be published as a new standard work on the forgotten history of the fashion city of Berlin.
Admission and participation free of charge.
No registration required.
