TOP 5 OPENINGS FOR YOUR BERLIN ART WEEKEND

Berlin’s top art events (21st-23rd May): daadgalerie, Autocenter, Kunstraum Kreuzberg, Eigen + Art Lab, Neue Berliner Räume

Artist Talk / daadgalerie

Thursday 21st May – 6:30pm

A master of the moment,  Jirí Kovanda nudges gently at the limits of freedom and the realties of our relationships both interpersonal and geopolitical with his thrilling, defiant, and intimate performances. For a glimpse behind the curtain at the concepts and the creator, begin your Berlin art weekend with the intellectual liberation of an artist talk from  Jirí Kovanda at daadgalerie.

daadgalerie // Zimmerstraße 90, 10117 Berlin

Vernissage / Autocenter

Friday 22nd May – 7pm

With an exploration of the performative power of language and speech as a political act, Autocenter offers up a group show dizzyingly relevant to the contemporary moment. Questioning the word, the voice, and the act, Re-Discoveries IV brings together the work of Erik Bünger, Peter Rose, Katarina Zdjelar for a rigorously aesthetic discursive analysis both broad and bold.

Autocenter // Leipziger Straße 56, 10117 Berlin

Vernissage / Kunstraum Kreuzberg

Friday 22nd May – 7pm

The historic halls of Kunstquartier Bethanien have been going through some changes of late — explore the new graphic installation and dig deeper into the recent history of visual communication more broadly with a group show exploring the development of urban artorms from graffiti to the fan zine at Kunstraum Kreuzberg.

Kunstraum Kreuzberg // Mariannenplatz 2, 10997 Berlin

Vernissage / Eigen + Art Lab

Friday 22nd May

For the forthcoming exhibition at Eigen + Art Lab Ralf Ziervogel explores textual expression as a graphic art form with a series of minimal, language-based wall-drawings. Gently conceptual and delightfully provocative, Ziervogel’s new work subtly pushes the boundaries of conceptual art.

Eigen + Art Lab // Torstraße 220, 10115 Berlin

Vernissage / Neue Berliner Räume

Saturday 23rd May – 6pm until 10pm

Bring your Berlin art weekend to a sublime close with the group show Wo der Ort beginnt/ Fünf. Stein auf Stein gelegt at Kunsthaus Dahlem, and don’t miss the subtle, expansive performance of Building Breathing by Dan Stockholm.

Neue Berliner Räume // Kunsthaus Dahlem, Käuzchensteig 8-12, 14195 Berlin
