When the smoking, lowered car with a rear spoiler and gold hubcaps drives through the exhibition, the moment when one would have been surprised is long gone. So many things seem to be possible on this day. Yoga to Walter Benjamin, religious thoughts about martial arts, hopeful ideas about vaulting exercises, Winnetou with a horse in a parking lot. It is the opening day of a huge cultural project, the “Kraftklub” in Augsburg. He is overwhelming. The strength club was conceived by Julian Warner, the artistic director of the Brecht Festival. And if his idea prevails in the coming days, then he will have achieved what all festival directors probably dream of: the audience and designers come from the entire city. And they stay.
Beautiful and crazy: The opening of the Brecht Festival Augsburg – Bavaria
