Call: Exhibition

Kunstraum Potsdamer Straße announces a call for the exhibition "LIMBO - face down on the pavement" parallel to the Berlin Art Week 2022.

We are looking for artists who want to engage intensively with the location and its specific conditions.
The aim of the exhibition is to rethink the Potsdamer Straße art space and to play with it immersively through installative displays and multimedia forms. 

The artists are supported by the curators Jakob Urban and Isa Zappe.
Jakob Urban is an artist, curator and researcher and studies dance studies at the FU Berlin.
Isa Zappe is an artist, curator and designer studying visual communication and fine arts at the UdK Berlin.

There will be joint workshops in which questions about the content of the works being created, as well as technical possibilities of implementation in space will be worked out together, so that in the end each artist can present themselves to the public during Art Week as professionally as possible.

Limbo describes the in-between - between this side and the other side, between university and professional work, between media, between generations, between technological ages, between various socio-political influences, between spaces, between here and there, between now and then.

Participation in the workshops is compulsory and an essential part of the work. These "CreativeLabs" are supported by the professional technicians and artists Hannes Schützler, Uli Westphal and Gonçalo Sena.

The workshops will take place on site in compliance with the applicable hygiene protection regulations.
