The BBK Bundesverband has been advocating for the social security of visual artists throughout Germany since 1971. Our film gathers different voices that talk about the milestones of the last 50 years as well as about the challenges that still need to be solved. It shows why it became crucial for visual artists to come together in a federal association - and, what can be achieved through joint commitment.

The BBK Leipzig is the largest artists' association in Leipzig and the Leipzig region. The association promotes the visual arts in the city and region of Leipzig through its commitment to cultural policy. It campaigns for better working conditions and the preservation of the visual arts heritage and works at the interface between artistic work and social commitment.
