Kant today

Commemorating Kant

The philosopher Immanuel Kant was born in Königsberg 300 years ago. Kant’s work is considered to be the pinnacle of the philosophy of the Enlightenment. His maxim that we should use our own reason seems more relevant and pressing today than ever before. What lessons can we learn from Kant? Where did Kant fail in his own endeavours? What are the abysses and darker sides of the Enlightenment?

Atlas of Mediterranean Liquidity

Artists from the Mediterranean region and beyond, in collaboration with scientists, are designing interactive maps that are all about water as a cultural asset. The aim is to develop a polyphonic collection of maps with exciting perspectives that tell new stories about our relationship to the element of water.
