BTW #3 - Money

Well dOCUMENTA happened to pop up again in the news for this episode. Ando actually heard about this story too!

One of the most prestigious art exhibitions, dOCUMENTA (15) is on the brink bankruptcy. We try to unravel how that could have happened. Who is to blame? The curators, a local politician, and poor management. The future of dOCUMENTA is now threatened. Join us and see if we can make heads or tails of it.
