Böhmermann defends himself against anti-Semitism allegation
Wolfram Weimer considers the appearance of Rapper Chefket to be problematic. Curator Böhmermann says he will box people from the stage who deny Israel’s right to exist.
Jan Böhmermann rejects allegations to offer a stage at his new exhibition in Berlin with the planned concert of a rapper anti -Semitism. “If Israel’s right to exist or the Holocaust is denied here, then I grab Wolfram Weimer, hook myself up and box that off the stage,” said the 44-year-old TV presenter and satirist at a press conference at the beginning of his exhibition “The possibility of unreasonableness”. That is an absolute naturalness for him.
Minister of Media and Culture Wolfram Weimer had sharply criticized a planned event with the Rapper Chefket in the federal institution Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW). The rapper wears a T-shirt in photos with a motif of the desired state of Palestine without Israel, according to the accusation. According to the federal government, this motif is anti -Semitic.
Concert as a provocation on October 7th?
“I find that a concert with an artist that is spreading anti-Semitic content on October 7 on October 7 on October 7 on the anniversary of Hamas.
He calls on the HKW director Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung to seek a conversation with the organizer and the artists and to “ensure that there are no anti-Semitic statements in any form”. His tolerance stops where hostility to Jews begins. The organizers should know that as a supervisory board of the house, he does not accept if the cultural center is misused for anti -Semitic actions.
Intrendant certifies Böhmermann “clear attitude”
Intendant Ndikung reacted to Weimer in a answer letter: “There is no place in the House of Cultures of the World for anti -Semitism (…). Jan Böhmermann and the Royale group are artistically free in the curation of the exhibition and the associated program.” Jan Böhmermann’s “clear attitude of the question of anti -Semitism” is publicly known and is out of the question for everyone in the HKW.
The exhibition “The possibility of unreasonation” by Böhmermann (“ZDF Magazin Royale”) is to be shown until October 19. Concerts, shows, TV recordings and rounds of talk are also planned. For October 8, Minister of Culture Weimer himself has also been announced as a guest of conversation.
