Art in the time of cholera

Times of the plague show that life without art is difficult for both artists and recipients. Art has moved to the internet, where you can watch movie premieres, theater performances, operas, listen to concerts of classical music, and even take part in club events. How has coronavirus changed and will change the world of art in the future? The answer to this question is sought by the creators of documentaries from the series ‘Art in the time of cholera’, shown for free on the VOD ARTE platform in Polish

Since the introduction of quarantine, the art shown online has been breaking popularity records, and everyone is asking themselves to what extent the coronavirus will change the cultural scene and art reception channels. Are we ready for art without leaving home? Are live art and online art the same?

Documentary filmmakers shown in ARTE in Polish are looking at this phenomenon and invite you to the best club events and classical music concerts. Berlin's best clubs have joined together as part of the 'United We Stream' action, which aims to deliver live music to homes every day and support artists. In the "Hope @ Home" program, the acclaimed violinist Daniel Hope invites equally famous classical music artists to his home for an intimate, improvised concert, and each of them is a real feast for the ear. In turn, the authors of the short film "Millenial whoop" ask about the future of music in the 21st century and what do the recipients need.
