In a "cross-over" of disciplines, the four internationally outstanding protagonists in their respective fields will take a fresh look at the collection and open up new perspectives. Cathrin Klingsöhr-Leroy's farewell exhibition is the starting point of our conversation to talk about her vision of the Franz Marc Museum over the last 15 years, which is also reflected in the current exhibition.

The Munich Speech® is an exclusive, international, non-profit series of events, to discuss cutting-edge art- and culture-topics. The name Munich Speech® derives from the celebrated series „Speeking about your own country: Germany“ at the Kammerspiele Munich in 1985 with Joseph Beuys.

Produced and presented since 2014 by Dietlinde Behncke (cultural manager and journalist, formerly at ZDF headquarter Berlin), the focus lies on outstanding positions/ personalities, who change, take action for or develop visions for Munich or change an institution in the world from Munich and who receive direct and immediate attention through the Munich Speech®. Due to the corona pandemic, there were also Munich Speech® digital live streams in 2020-2022.

The events took place three to four times a year until 2022 in André and Dietlinde Behncke's private apartment. The events are currently taking place at behncke gallery I ludwig space, since the gallery was founded on January 31, 2023.
