Photo: Pia Barth, Goethe University Frankfurt<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2025, numerous museums and other municipal institutions will celebrate the 100th anniversary of \u201cThe New Frankfurt\u201d \u2013 an urban planning initiative through which the city sought to combat the housing crisis between 1925 and 1930 with social housing projects, setting architectural standards across Germany. The exhibition \u201cEveryday housing issues. On privatization, refurbishment and protest\u201d was jointly developed by the Historical Museum and human geographers from Goethe University Frankfurt. The focus of the museum\u2019s Citylab lies on the history of three originally nonprofit housing settlements in Frankfurt: 1980s Knorrstra\u00dfe in the Gallus quarter, the Carl-von-Weinberg settlement in the city\u2019s Westend from the 1930s, and the postwar-modern Henri-Dunant settlement in Sossenheim. The exhibition and accompanying program explore and contextualize the stories of these settlements\u2019 residents, as explained in this interview with Goethe University\u2019s Tabea Latocha and Prof. Sebastian Schipper, as well as Angelina Schaefer, the Historical Museum\u2019s independent curator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>UniReport: A casual question to start: Who made the first move?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Angelina Schaefer:<\/strong> You approached us, didn\u2019t you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tabea Latocha: <\/strong>That\u2019s correct! Four years ago, at a meeting with Katharina B\u00f6ttger, Citylab\u2019s curator, I talked about the German Research Foundation-funded project \u201cHome and Housing in Urban Regeneration Processes: Studying the Macro through Historiographies of the Micro in Tel Aviv-Jaffa and Frankfurt am Main,\u201d led by Sebastian Schipper and Bernd Belina. I had conducted research on selected housing settlements in Frankfurt as part of the project, and explained to her that we conduct our research in an applied, critical way \u2013 in collaboration with tenants and social initiatives. That\u2019s when the idea emerged to use the Citylab format not just to present our research but to develop it further in a participatory manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So, in this Citylab, researchers are more than just consultants \u2013 they\u2019re involved on an equal footing.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Latocha: <\/strong>Correct, this is the first Citylab that not only involves Frankfurt citizens but also features an explicit partnership with the university. We asked ourselves: What could such a collaboration look like? The housing issue is, after all, scientifically complex, requiring macropolitical processes such as legislation to be translated into an exhibition format, not to mention the subjective perspectives of residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sebastian Schipper: <\/strong>This was only possible because the research project itself is participatory, which aligns perfectly with a participatory museum pedagogy. Our research project was inspired by a method developed by Tovi Fenster from Tel Aviv University, who is also involved in the exhibition. She calls it the \u201cArchaeology of the Address Methodology\u201d. Using archival work to study the history of individual housing estates, we reconstruct the residents\u2019 stories and trace them to the present \u2013 thereby also illuminating the history of Germany\u2019s housing policy. It\u2019s about moving from the micro to the macro, as referenced in the project title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Did both sides share the same goals from the start?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer:<\/strong> Yes, we both wanted to involve the people who are directly affected \u2013 those living this reality. Your research [<em>she turns to Latocha and Schipper<\/em>] brought a local focus on the three settlements. We really benefited from your contacts and your in-depth knowledge of these communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Latocha: <\/strong>We used the centennial as a starting point to explore what ideas the tradition of the common good in Frankfurt\u2019s urban and housing policy holds for addressing today\u2019s housing question. And we wanted to ground that with the subjective perspectives of people who are currently experiencing the housing crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schipper: <\/strong>Science seeks to understand the world. But beyond that, we social scientists also want to give something back to society. So having the chance to use the Citylab \u2013 well, that\u2019s like hitting the jackpot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer:<\/strong> For us, it was also important because we had far fewer Citylab community contributors than with other topics. The gap was beautifully filled with academic insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fewer participants for such a hugely relevant topic as housing?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schipper:<\/strong> The focus was very much on the residents of the three settlements, people facing eviction and rent hikes. They don\u2019t have time for museum workshops; they\u2019re juggling a third job or other urgent matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer: <\/strong>The housing issue is precarious. Many people prefer not to talk about their own situation or share private experiences. We have to act very sensitively as a museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You\u2019ve also included municipal staff and decision-makers in the exhibition and the program. How were they integrated?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer:<\/strong> Decision-makers are involved in the exhibition\u2019s accompanying program through panel discussions and information evenings. There\u2019s also a future-oriented section of the exhibition that asks: \u201cHow do we want to live in the future \u2013 and how do we get there?\u201d We show video interviews there with an architect, someone from the Housing Department, and a social scientist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do you already have a favorite exhibition piece?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer: <\/strong>I\u2019m really looking forward to the contribution from the daycare center in the Henri-Dunant housing estate. The children built a model of how they experience Sossenheim. They and their carers spent a lot of time in the neighborhood and carried out detailed research there, on the basis of which the children then created 10 drawings that really, really impressed me. They also conducted interviews with adults, which will be part of their exhibition piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schipper:<\/strong> I\u2019m definitely curious about the mold apartment that\u2019s been recreated. It really shows what it\u2019s like to live in such conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Latocha:<\/strong> My choice would also be the mold apartment \u2013 an exhibit that only becomes possible because a few people who face major daily struggles \u2013 and suffer deeply from them \u2013 gathered all their courage to contribute to the Stadtlabor. Such a decision involves fears as well as legal questions surrounding tenant rights. I also really like the mobile created by a young woman: it presents her perspective as a teenager living in the housing estate and explores the question: Is it fair that I can\u2019t afford to move out after finishing high school? She loves the estate, the greenery, but at the same time, she sees how her mother is struggling with the high rent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The exhibition will also include a section on visions for the future.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Latocha: <\/strong>We\u2019ve created a \u201cFuture Table\u201d visitors can sit at. It features a kind of tablecloth printed with positive examples of social housing. Visitors are also invited to contribute their own ideas and inform themselves, including through cards that provide information about housing policy demands. Another area poses the questions: What can we learn from the last 100 years of social housing? What worked well? What didn\u2019t? After all, social housing wasn\u2019t perfect. It is here where visitors can then build their own imagined housing estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer: <\/strong>This means that more models will be created over the course of the exhibition \u2013 for example, in workshops with children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So, the longer the exhibition runs, the more complex and complete it becomes?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer:<\/strong> Yes, that\u2019s how our Citylabs work. All feature participatory stations where people can leave their thoughts. Over time, a dialogue often develops between different notes, with visitors commenting on each other\u2019s comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What did you personally learn while putting this exhibition together?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Latocha:<\/strong> I learned that just because I think I\u2019m using simple language, that doesn\u2019t always mean it works in a museum setting. What do we actually mean by terms like modernization, renovation, and refurbishment? We had to come up with shotr formats to explain these concepts concisely \u2013 without turning the exhibition into a lecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer:<\/strong> I found it fascinating to work with you all during the text editing phase. The Citylab contributors write their own texts, which we edit. I really appreciated how we found a shared language and learnt a lot linguistically about making things understandable while still being precise. I hope it resonates with our visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What kind of impact do you hope the exhibition will have?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schaefer: <\/strong>One of the contributors kept saying he wanted the exhibition to motivate visitors to speak up for their own interests \u2013 and to protest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schipper: <\/strong>The exhibition will show that today\u2019s experiences of searching for housing, losing one\u2019s home, or facing housing insecurity are the result of social, political, and economic conditions. And that things could be done differently \u2013 as shown by the \u201cFuture Table\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Are you optimistic?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Latocha:<\/strong> Giving up isn\u2019t an option! There are positive examples \u2013 and experience shows that protest can make a difference. It would be wrong to think that housing will cease being a profitmaking endeavor overnight. Neither will rents drop immediately. Key is the moment when people come together and realize: \u201cIt\u2019s not just me \u2013 it affects all of us.\u201d And numbers bring political agency. If that realization takes root, a lot can grow from it, even if the outcome remains open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#eeeeee\">The Stadtlabor Exhibition <strong>Alle Tage Wohnungsfrage.
