It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time. This video takes you an a tour of Documenta 13 in Kassel on the Preview day. The main venues of this year’s Documenta include Fridericianum, Ottoneum, Documenta-Halle, and Neue Galerie.
