Press

Our nomadic role challenges us to see the world through the eyes of our Host Cities and Regions, generating new visions and perspectives. As we engage with each location, we document and share these evolving ideas. On this page you find current press releases as well as press material to download.

We kindly ask that all press enquiries, including for our Creative Mediators and participants, come via our Press Team.

All questions regarding the institution, conceptualisation and organisation of Manifesta 16 Ruhr will be answered by a member of our Press or Management team. This might include, but is not limited to: the use of the Urban Vision and its relation to the overall concept of Manifesta, the legacy and history of Manifesta, our Education and Mediation programme and the selection of churches as venues.
