Klaus Siebenhaar

He then founded his own publishing house, B&S Siebenhaar Verlag [de], as well as the Institute for Culture and Media Management (IKMW) at the university.

[2] Siebenhaar came under criticism because it was suspected that a person who had received professorship had donated to the institute, citing the case of Bernhard Lorentz, whose foundation paid 160,000 euros between 2009 and 2011.

From 1981 to 1983, he directed the research project and exhibition "Das war ein Vorspiel nur... 50 Jahre Bücherverbrennung" (with Walter Huber and Hermann Haarmann) at the Akademie der Künste in Berlin.

From 2009 to 2011, he was on the advisory board of the Goethe-Institut in Munich and advised the European Investment Bank Luxembourg on cultural project development.

After his retirement from the FU Berlin in 2017, he founded the Institute for Culture and Media Economy (IKMW) together with the music publisher Rolf Budde.

He has also realised numerous staged readings for Deutsches Theater, the Jewish Museum, and art projects in public spaces in Berlin, Kassel and China.
