After the resignation of documenta general director Sabine Schormann, an interim successor has been found. This means that the debate about her person is off the table for the time being, but not that about the art show.
After the resignation of the documenta general director Sabine Schormann, the actual processing of the anti-Semitism scandal at the Kassel world art exhibition is now pending. “Ms. Schormann’s resignation was necessary, but certainly not sufficient,” says Kassel architecture professor Philipp Oswalt. The former head of the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation was also involved in founding the documenta Institute and observes documenta fifteen as a researcher.
