Festival | Assemblage Berlin. 60 Jahre Literatur intermedial
Das Festival widmet sich als ein Kooperationsprojekt des EXC 2020 und des Literarischen Colloquiums Berlin (LCB) dem Topos der Intermedialität. In vier Sektionen und einer Ausstellung spürt es den vielfältigen Erscheinungsformen von Literatur und ihren Verflechtungen mit anderen Künsten unter den Bedingungen der Digitalisierung und einer globalisierten Zirkulation nach.
