ANSPRECHBAR at the Pecha Kucha Night in Pieschen

Several artists present their current projects at GEH8 – each presentation lasts 6:40 minutes.

With the annual theme for 2025 ‘We’re All in This Together’, the GEH8 art and culture centre is addressing the current discourse on social cohesion and the perceived division in society. In our time, social, political and economic differences are becoming increasingly visible and are being discussed more intensively. The theme of the year therefore focuses on the search for community in a society that is more strongly characterised by diversity and individualism than ever before. In contrast to the tendencies of demarcation, division and polarisation, GEH8 aims to put the focus back on bringing people together and outline the possibilities and hopes that lie in acting and thinking together.

Pecha Kucha – an open stage for inspiration & networking

Pecha Kucha (Japanese for ‘constantly chatting’, registered word mark) is a presentation technique that leaves no time for long ramblings. Pecha Kucha means: 20 images that change every 20 seconds – automatically. With such crisp presentations, you gain insights into current projects by local artists and cultural professionals.

The project is funded by Heidehof Stiftung GmbH the State Ministry for Social Affairs and Social Cohesion. This measure is co-financed with tax funds on the basis of the budget passed by the Saxon state parliament within the framework of the state programme Integrative Maßnahmen.
