Opening up their studio for makers, thinkers and a curious audience, Das Leben am Haverkamp aims to collectively explore fashion’s absurd, magical and seductive nature. Every three months they invite a guest to join the collective as an artist in residence. By creating exhibitions, lectures, performances, workshops or screenings, they share their vision. Through the lens of fashion each of them addresses contemporary issues, casting a philosophical or critical perspective on identity politics, hypercapitalism and luxury.

Residence programme
We have a curated program for which we scout and select artists, makers and thinkers. Residencies last approximately two months and generally lead up to a presentation of some kind. Would you like to be on our longlist? Tip your own work or work of someone you think we should consider via this form and we will take it into consideration during our selection.
