On May 2, 2025, we mark the third anniversary of the commemoration of Ante P.,
who experienced police violence during a mental health crisis and subsequently died.
The exhibition focuses in particular on the circumstances of the deaths of Ante P. and Ertekin
Özkan, both of whom lost their lives in Mannheim during police interventions.
Through colorful watercolor paintings, artist Tal Hever-Chybowski, together with the
Initiative 2. Mai Mannheim and antidiskriminierungsbüro Mannheim, addresses the lack of
accountability towards the victims.
