An evening where Bielefeld's book culture shines

Six-part book culture with a Bielefeld touch

The Bielefelder Edition was established in 2008 with the idea of publishing a special book with a local profile once a year. Since then, numerous volumes have emerged, addressing topics from organs to nightlife. The Edition Moderne in Westfalen has been expanding this scope since 2022 to include personalities and artistic worlds from the region. Thus, the evening combines bibliophile form, cultural-historical perspective, and curatorial care into a literary experience with analytical depth.

Bookmaking as a cultural technique

Christiane Heuwinkel and Kerstin Schröder provide insights into the behind-the-scenes of bookmaking, discussing challenging and curious research and surprising lucky finds. The appeal of this format lies precisely in that: It not only focuses on the finished book but also on its creation, its design, and its linguistic as well as visual dramaturgy. Those who want to understand literature not just as a consumption but as a cultural practice will find here an author encounter in a broader sense.
