More Information

A traveling exhibition sponsored by the Goethe-Institut San Francisco fills Oakland’s Pro Arts with photographs, films, zines and noise from a brief era of renegade gatherings and experimental production in East and West Germany. Highlighting the bands, artists, filmmakers and designers who rejected craftsmanship in favor of genre-crossing, purposely provocative aesthetics, the show includes a screening of Punk Berlin 1982 (a dramatization of one punk’s introduction to the West Berlin scene) and, for some local flavor, performances by Bay Area bands like Moira Scar and Bonus Beast throughout the month.


Pro Arts Gallery Hours are extended for the duration of Brilliant Dilletantes – Subculture in Germany in the 1980s. They are: Tue. – Fri. 1:00 – 7:00 PM, Sat. noon – 6:00 PM.

Brilliant Dilletantes – Subculture in Germany in the 1980s exhibition and related public programs are co-presented with and supported by Goethe Institut.
