Dr. med Johann Ahn + Martin Binder + Ana Lessing Menjibar
Dr. Johann Ahn is an internist, hematologist-oncologist, and palliative care physician. As a senior physician at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, he is dedicated to clinical and scientific research into how cancer medicine can be designed to be patient-centered and tailored to individual needs and requirements.
The engagement with public space and environmental issues runs like a red thread through Martin Binder’s interdisciplinary studies in Art in Context at the Berlin University of the Arts (UdK) and Industrial Design at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano. Binder works with both analog and digital media, combining manual and mechanical processes and employing innovative materials. He is currently realizing the Kunst am Bau (art-in-architecture) project for the Bauhaus Archive in Berlin, in which he traces the materials used in the new building on film back to their origins.
Ana Lessing Menjibar is a German-Spanish dancer, choreographer, and multidisciplinary artist based in Berlin. With degrees in Solo/Dance/Authorship (HZT Berlin) and Visual Communication (UdK Berlin), her expanded choreographic practice merges body, sound, video, and sculpture. In this context, she explores flamenco’s transformative potential, asking how this embodied knowledge can shape forward-looking conceptions of body and society, engaging with (body) archives, wounds, healing, memory, and resistance. She frequently teaches at HZT and UdK Berlin.
