Enjoy the amazing Scene of Berlin Art gallery with your private guide. Since the fall of the Wall in 1989 Berlin has become the artistic magnet of Europe. Not only did affordable rents attract artists to this city, but also a semi-liberal artistic climate contributed to rise of Berlin as hot spot for the arts.This exclusive tour brings you to the most important gallery hubs of Berlin. We start our journey in Mitte, in the Auguststrasse, where we will uncover a wealth of galleries and institutions. From Kunst Werke, a contemporary art institution founded in the early 1990's showing a wide range of art from mixed media retrospectives to giant installations, festivals and sound performances, allowing innovation and curatorial creativity running across five floors, we will walk to several smaller and more intimate galleries in the vicinity of this institution in both the Auguststrasse and Linienstrasse such as Eigen,Art and ifa Galerie.From the central drag of Mitte we will take the Berliner subway to the next stop: Potsdamer Strasse. Over the past five years this strip has gained increasing momentum caused by an enormous wave of gallerists which moved from Mitte to the area South of the Neue Nationalgalerie.
Today, a true gallery mile includes about thirty galleries and project spaces scattered around an unpolished neighborhood. We will visit renowned galleries such as Esther Schipper, Isabella Bortolozzi, Gitti Nourbakhsch, Guido Baudach, Arndt, Plan B, Tanya Leighton and Klosterfelde. Through your dialogue with an art historian familiar with the art scene, this walk aims to give you insight into contemporary art practices within Berlin’s expanding art scene.
