Capital of Culture Talk on the Purple Path: And what's in it for us in Lößnitz?

Location

entrance free

Chemnitz author Stefan Tschök is visiting all 38 cities and municipalities along the Purple Path in 2025. He will not only be presenting his book "What? Chemnitz?!", a tongue-in-cheek instruction manual for the Capital of Culture. Tschök also wants to enter into dialogue with the residents: What do local residents actually get out of the Capital of Culture title? What do they get out of it - and how can they get involved?

These questions will be at the centre of the panel discussion, in which expert guests from the town will always provide answers - and the audience is also expressly invited to take part. In addition to Tschök, the Hospitalkirche St. Georg in Lößnitz - the art and pilgrimage church - will also have its say: Raphael Weiß, pastor of the parish of Lößnitz-Affalter, and the mayor of Lößnitz, Alexander Troll. Of course, the Purple Path artworks in the town will also be discussed. In addition to "The Universe in a pearl" by Rebecca Horn, at the foot of which the event will take place, these are the oversized porcelain vessels by Uli Aigner from the "One Million" series.
