TOP 5 OPENINGS FOR YOUR BERLIN ART WEEKEND

Berlin’s top art events (29th-1st November 2015): Daniel Marzona, König Galerie, Galerie Nagel Draxler, Future Gallery, UdK Berlin, and C/O Berlin

Séance / Daniel Marzona

Thursday 29th October – 6pm until 9pm

Just in time for Halloween, Daniel Marzona presents a séance mediated by Paolo Chiasera within the hallowed walls of the white cube. Find out what the spirits have to say about the Berlin art world, for one night only; costumes are, of course, optional.

Daniel Marzona // Friedrichstraße 17, 10969 Berlin

Vernissage / König Galerie

Friday 30th October – 6pm until 8pm

In conjunction with the release of Daniel Turner’s new book, Marjorie, published by Etudes Studio, König Galerie presents the New York-based artist’s first solo exhibition at the gallery. Carefully manipulating scale and form, Turner’s sculptures strip objects of context and formal conditioning in the creation of a dynamic, physically imposing installation.

König Galerie // Alexandrinenstraße 118 – 121, 10969 Berlin

Vernissage / Galerie Nagel Draxler

Friday 30th October – 7pm until 10pm

Save a little room in your art weekend schedule for a few contemporary heavyweights. This Friday night, Galerie Nagel Draxler premiers work by Kader Attia and Martha Rosler — two of the 21st century’s brightest art stars. Find out what all the fuss is about from 7 until 10pm, and be sure to tell your friends.

Galerie Nagel Draxler // Weydingerstraße 2/4, 10178 Berlin

Vernissage / Future Gallery

Friday 30th October – 7pm until 10pm

With ParameterChant, Kareem Lotfy and Brenna Murphy offer up an otherworldly mix of digital aesthetics blended with contemporary symbolism. Merging sculpture, installation, and graphics, Lotfy and Murphy present an entrancing spectacle perfectly calibrated for the post post-modern age.

Future Gallery // Keithstraße 10, 10787 Berlin

Artist Talk / UdK Berlin

Sunday 1st November – 5pm

If you don’t already have tickets, you may have to rely on your wits and a hefty dose of luck to score a seat, but the wait and the worry will be worth your while if you make it in to see Ai Weiwei speak this Sunday afternoon. Hot on the heels of the lego block scandal, the UdK guest professor gives Berliners a taste of human rights, art-style.

UdK Berlin // Hardenbergstraße 33, 10623 Berlin

Book Launch / C/O Berlin

Tuesday 27th October – 8pm

In case you missed the exceptional launch of Claus Rottenbacher’s book at C/O Berlin, make sure to source your very own copy from Kehrer Verlag. Featuring 50 color portraits of rooms from the Internationales Congress Centrum (ICC) and the FAHRBEREITSCHAFT of the GDR, Rottenbacher’s images play in the liminal space between aesthetic representation and architectural documentation.

C/O Berlin // Hardenbergstraße 22–24, 10623 Berlin
