Inaugural and Farewell Lectures

During our inaugural and farewell lectures, we welcome or bid farewell to our professors and associate professors.
Those who are appointed as professors or associate professors at HSG introduce themselves in a public lecture.

Likewise, professors who retire give a public lecture to say goodbye. You are cordially invited to attend these public inaugural and farewell lectures, as well as HSG members.

Like our public lectures, our inaugural and farewell lectures cover a wide range of topics: from economic and legal issues to aspects of cultural policy.

You can find an overview of all inaugural and farewell lectures in the programme flyer.

Artist in Residence: Lewis Davidson

Lewis Davidson focuses on the overlooked and inconspicuous elements that comprise our everyday living spaces. The London-based artist works directly with found objects, developing special processes to transform and redefine their identity, as well as their connection to value, purpose and place — as can be seen in Square. The detailed programme will follow.
