until 24.01. | #4886RTatBerlin | Galerie Schindler shows from Thursday, 4. December 2025 the exhibition DIVERSE with the latest works by 18 gallery artists and new positions. Diverse — ending the year with color, bite, and depth. For the last time this year, Diverse brings together a colorful mix of gallery artists and new, young talents. Karen Simon, innerlich, Ink on canvas, 70 x 50 cm Small to medium formats, all works in classic painting on canvas — but hey, there are two small exceptions: photography and printmaking, which earn extra points. In terms of content, the images range from vibrant landscapes and expressive portraits to quiet, daring still lifes. Constantin Schroeder, Dolly, 2025, Oil on canvas, 40x 30 cm The common denominator? Passion, craftsmanship, and an eye for detail — but each position tells its own cheeky or honest story. An exhibition that celebrates diversity, pushes boundaries, and is thoroughly enjoyable.

until 10.01. | #4883ARTatBerlin | KLEMM’S shows from 21. November 2025 the exhibition Barometer of Self-Optimization by the artists Nassim L’Ghoul and Stefanie Schwarzwimmer. Klemm’s presents Barometer of Self-Optimization, a video programme featuring works by Nassim L’Ghoul (*1997 in Bad Soden) and Stefanie Schwarzwimmer (*1990 in Linz), with screenings at Klemm’s Downstairs. Complementing Sven Johne’s exhibition Eternal 20th Century, the programme explores conceptual links across generations, touching on themes of violence, labour, war, and the uncanny. In his works, Nassim L’Ghoul uses digital and conceptual tools to abstract personal experiences and interweave them with found material. By re-contextualising these fragments, hybrid environments are created that oscillate between the real and the imaginary. Stefanie Schwarzwimmer constructs virtual spaces mixing memories, media, and pop culture, forming satirical reflections on social trends. Her work examines content creation, self-optimization, consumerism, and visual power in a media-saturated world. Opening: Friday, 21. November 2025, 7 to 9 pm Exhibition dates: Friday, 21. November 2025 to Saturday, 10. January 2026 Screenings: Saturdays, 12–6 pm and by appointment.     Title image caption: Nassim L’Ghoul, ‘Soliloquy’, 2025. Film still.

until 18.12. | #4880ARTatBerlin | Galerie Esther Schipper shows from Friday, 14. November 2025, the exhibition Ensemble by the artists Jac Leirner and Rafa Silvares. Esther Schipper is pleased to announce Ensemble, bringing together works by Jac Leirner and Rafa Silvares. The exhibition marks Silvares’s first and Leirner’s third with the gallery. The year Silvares was born some hundred kilometers inland, Leirner completed her artistic education; decades later, Silvares would study at the same institute in São Paulo. Continuing their rich correspondence, the exhibition is a result of the artists’s exchange within each other’s universes. Taking the habit to pick up, sketch, and keep quotidian items as a point of departure, the artists’s dialogue echoes a Benjaminian ode to collecting. A new iteration of Leirner’s groundbreaking work, Hip Hop (1998/2025), extends along the exhibition space’s walls. Held in the Solomon R. Guggenheim collection, Hip Hop has been presented in eight institutions across continents. For this presentation, Leirner has produced a new version of the historic piece, adding a motif, “scratch,” a sequence of four parallel, diagonal bars. The installation, while paying homage to Piet Mondrian’s penultimate painting Broadway Boogie Woogie (1942–43), takes its name from the unruly beats that jumped from New […]

until 07.02. | #4876ARTatBerlin | Galerie Thomas Schulte (Charlottenstraße) shows from Thursday, 27 November 2025 (Opening: 28.11.) the exhibition “Rotation” with Richard Deacon, Lena Henke, Franka Hörnschemeyer, Matt Mullican, Leunora Salihu, Fred Sandback, Dan Walsh and Jonas Weichsel. Galerie Thomas Schulte presents “Rotation”, a group exhibition bringing together eight artists from the gallery’s program. Spanning works from the late 1960s to today, the show highlights the evolving dialogue of formal and system-based approaches across generations. Featuring Richard Deacon, Lena Henke, Franka Hörnschemeyer, Matt Mullican, Leunora Salihu, Fred Sandback, Dan Walsh and Jonas Weichsel, the presentation underscores the intersections of structure, space, materiality and conceptual order. Each position contributes distinct strategies while sharing a focus on the interplay between form and system as organizing principles. The exhibition creates a multifaceted reading of formal thinking – from sculptural volumes to architectural interventions and conceptual system paintings. “Rotation” emphasizes the dynamic exchange among these artistic practices and reflects the gallery’s long-term curatorial trajectory. Opening: Friday, 28 November 2025, 7:00–9:00 pm Exhibition dates: Thursday, 27 November 2025 until Saturday, 7 February 2026     Image caption title: Richard Deacon, “No Black”, 2013, glazed ceramic, 63 x 100 x 67 cm Group exhibition ROTATION – […]

until (to follow) | #4882ARTatBerlin | ARTES Berlin shows from Saturday, 15. November 2025 the exhibition ARTES Winterausstellung. The exhibition invites visitors to rediscover the encounter between art and fairy tales – a silent journey through the winter season, characterised by light, shadow and delicate narratives between dream and reality. In this special season, familiar fairy tale characters and mythical figures emerge. They symbolise the human longing for light, hope and transformation and open up new perspectives on the poetic side of winter. Between reality and fantasy, a space is created in which art makes the quiet stories of winter visible – stories of memory, longing and wonder. The works of selected artists – including Gerhard Richter, Dagmar Vogt, Albert Hien, Edward B. Gordon and many more – come together in a multi-layered dialogue between light and darkness, transience and transformation. Dagmar Vogt presents bronze sculptures influenced by the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm. Her works take up familiar motifs and translate them into a contemporary, sensually perceptible form. With his light objects, Albert Hien transforms the exhibition spaces into a finely composed interplay of brightness and reflection that dissolves the boundaries between artwork and space. The paintings by […]

until 07.02. | #4865ARTatBerlin | Galerie Martin Mertens shows from Friday, 21. November 2025 the Group exhibition “Colorful Abstraction” by the artists Thorbjørn Bechmann, Antje Blumenstein, Katrin Bremermann, Joanna Buchowska, Martin Bünger and Matthias Kanter. Danish painter Thorbjørn Bechmann explores the tension between chance and control in his work. His pieces are created through the interplay of freely moving paint, which makes its way across the canvas, and the artist’s constant intuitive interventions. Bechmann creates soft gradients that resemble delicate veils of colour. The process of layering many colours creates surfaces full of tension. The large-format works have an impressive luminosity and are reminiscent of dazzling, harmonious plays of light. In recent years, colour, light and spatiality have become central aspects of Antje Blumenstein‘s work. The Berlin-based artist often uses special materials such as neon tubes or fluorescent acrylic glass panels, which she layers and/or mills lines into to create fascinating geometric colour spaces that generate an intensely colourful interplay of surface and space through transparency and densification. The colour itself is transformed into a three-dimensional form. They encourage the viewer to move constantly and change their perspective. Für die Berliner Künstlerin Katrin Bremermann steht das freie Spiel mit geometrischen Formen und die […]

until 17.01. | #4866ARTatBerlin | Galerie Isabella Bortolozzi shows from Saturday, 15 November 2025 the exhibition “Portals” by the artist Seth Price. Galerie Isabella Bortolozzi is pleased to present “Portals”, the fifth solo exhibition by Seth Price at the gallery. The exhibition features a new series of paintings alongside a concise presentation of the artist’s records, cassettes, books, and garments. Price’s new works merge digital image generation with material craftsmanship, combining acrylic paint, generative image reverse-transfers into acrylic polymer, and UV prints on aluminum composite. The resulting surfaces fluctuate between physical presence and algorithmic abstraction. Seth Price, Haruspex, 2025, Acrylic paint, generative image reverse-transferred into acrylic polymer, and UV-print on aluminum composite, 151.8 x 134.9 x 2.9 cm In works such as Nox Anima Lens (2025) and Haruspex (2025), Price explores the intersections of body, technology, and perception. His “portals” act as thresholds between worlds — between human and machine, surface and meaning, presence and digital residue. The exhibition invites visitors to engage with the tension between the analogue and the generative, a recurring theme in Price’s practice that has shaped post-digital aesthetics since the early 2000s. Opening: Saturday, 15 November 2025, 6:00–9:00 pm Exhibition dates: Saturday, 15 November 2025 […]

until 17.01. | #4863ARTatBerlin | Galerie Guido W. Baudach shows from 15. November 2025 (Opening: 14.11.) the exhibition “Great Cosmic Wall” by the artist Björn Dahlem. Björn Dahlem refers to a phenomenon f6om the field of astronomy: the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall, a cosmic superstructure that so far only exists in scientific theory. It is supposed to consist of an enormous accumulation of gravitationally connected star clusters with a presumed extent of 10 billion light-years. This would make the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall — if it actually exists — the largest and most massive structure in the observable universe. Great Cosmic Wall adds a new chapter to Dahlem’s oeuvre. Formally and in terms of content, it deals with specific borderline areas; be it those between microcosm and macrocosm, mundane everyday life and transcendent experience, or between order and chaos. Accordingly, Great Cosmic Wall can also be read as an allusive metaphor for the invisible barriers that separate our subjective experience of reality from the infinite: the mist between us and the universe; the curtain of light and shadow that separates space-time and matter. With Great Cosmic Wall, Björn Dahlem attempts not only to illustrate this borderline areas, but also to penetrate them in his sculptures. Opening: […]

until 07.02. | #4857ARTatBerlin | ChertLüdde (Ritterstr. 2A) shows from Saturday, 22 November 2025 the exhibitions “At the limits of the city” by the artist David Horvitz and “Let Them Say Something” by the artist Ali Eyal. ChertLüdde presents two parallel solo exhibitions by Los Angeles-based artists David Horvitz and Ali Eyal, each of which explores questions of place, memory and collective experience in a poetic and socially reflective manner. The opening will take place on Saturday, 22 November 2025, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the gallery. David Horvitz – At the limits of the city In his exhibition At the Limits of the City, David Horvitz expands on the legacy of Californian conceptual art of the late 1960s and early 1970s. The artist explores geographical boundaries by transferring elements of his Los Angeles garden project to Berlin, thereby reinterpreting the dialogue between two urban spaces. David Horvitz, At the limits of the city, 2025, Four photographs printed Hahnemühle Photorag Baryta 315gsm paper, each, unframed: 35 × 44 cm At the centre of the exhibition is a reconstructed wooden platform based on a structure from Horvitz’s own garden. Recordings of poets who have performed there are played in the […]

until 24.01. | #4855ARTatBerlin | Galerie Judin shows from 15. November 2025 (Vernissage: 14.11.) the exhibition “Error 404“ by the artist Alexander Basil. Self-reflection, contemplation, searching – these are the terms that first come to mind when attempting to describe Alexander Basil’s latest paintings. With an artist like Basil, whose distinctive visual language is so immediately recognisable, even the subtlest changes in tone or nuance in his visual vocabulary are noticeable. In recent years, the artist has intensively explored his own unique form of self-expression by literally giving his own face to almost all the figures depicted in his works – not only human motifs, but also other living beings and even inanimate objects – resulting in dreamlike, surreal compositions. Now he presents himself with a slightly altered perspective: more analytical, more methodical – but by no means less attentive. Quite the contrary. His current work covers a specific period beginning with the artist’s birth and continuing to the present day. It is therefore a biographical retrospective in which several developments run parallel – primarily Alexander Basil’s career as an artist and his social and physical transition to manhood. To this end, Basil repeatedly draws on imagery reminiscent of scientific […]

until 20.12. | #4852ARTatBerlin | AOA;87 contemporary presents from Friday, 21. November 2025 (Opening: 20.11.) the group exhibition „SALON: MAU R | AOA;87 X DŸSE“, an anniversary exhibition about ruptures, conviction, and the end of the illusion of sugarland. “Unprepared. Unreflected. Naive. And dumb.” This is how DŸSE’s song Keine Mauern mehr ends – and with it, an entire narrative: the German reunification fairy tale that, in its euphoria, painted over the cracks. Sugar on every corner – and teeth long stuck in concrete. The words hit hard. No pathos, no pop – a reckoning. A reminder that freedom doesn’t fall from the sky, but requires conviction. SALON: MAU R is AOA;87’s response to this – and simultaneously a manifesto for the gallery’s fifth anniversary. Five years of dialogue, friction, courage. Born from an idea, from a conviction. The exhibition positions itself as a Salon des Refusés of our time – a place for discussion rather than decoration, for artistic conviction rather than conformity. Inspired by French salon culture, it opens as a hybrid space between art, music, politics, and society – a hub of diversity. DYSE © Maren Michaelis At its center stands the project MAU R by DŸSE […]

until 20.12. | #4849ARTatBerlin | Robert Morat Galerie presents from Saturday, 1. November 2025 (Vernissage: 31.10.) the exhibition „Between Fields and Spirits“ by the artist Marco Maria Zanin. Robert Morat Galerie presents the first exhibition by Italian visual artist and researcher Marco Maria Zanin in Germany. The exhibition project ‘Between Fields and Spirits’ unfolds in three chapters following the flow of the three rooms of the gallery. In the words of the artist, ‘Between Fields and Spirits’ is ‘an exhibition project moving between artistic practice, anthropology, and relational philosophy. Through ceramics, photography, installations, and visual ethnography, the show explores earth as a symbolic, affective, and spiritual force – a space of memory, gesture, and transformation.’ Marco Maria Zanin, Transcategorical Objects, 2021, Courtesy Robert Morat Galerie Marco Maria Zanin (*1983, Padua, Italy) is an artist and academic researcher whose practice lies at the crossroads of photography, contemporary art, anthropology, and social engagement. His career includes solo exhibitions at institutions such as the Palazzo dei Musei in Reggio Emilia, Fondazione Modena Arti Visive, Casa dei Tre Oci (Venice), Pivô – Arte e Pesquisa (São Paulo), as well as collaborations with international platforms including Fondazione Cologni and the National Museum of Ethnology in […]

until 20.12. | #4847ARTatBerlin | neugerriemschneider (Linienstrasse) shows from 1 November 2025 (Opening: 31.10.) a solo exhibition by artist Tomás Saraceno. The artist Tomás Saraceno’s second solo exhibition at neugerriemschneider, tomás saracenoi, focuses on water cycles as material and metaphor, ahead of his 2026 presentation at Haus der Kunst in Munich. The title refers to Heteropoda saracenoi, a spider species named in honor of the artist by arachnologist Peter Jäger. The exhibition builds on Saraceno’s long-term collaboration with indigenous communities from the Salinas Grandes and Laguna de Guayatayoc in northern Argentina. The water of these salt flats is both a spiritual source and a contested resource—shaped by exploitative practices of supposedly green energy corporations that threaten not only the water itself but also ancestral knowledge and living memory. This context deeply informs the works on view. Upon entering the gallery, visitors encounter a freestanding toilet—a familiar object, yet modified to reuse handwashing water for flushing. This intervention embodies Saraceno’s attempt to find new pathways into water cycles—at once sculpture and functional prototype of a system that already operates in his studio and could save up to 14,000 liters of water per year if implemented in the gallery context. Nearby, prints […]

until 13.02. | #4844 ARTatBerlin | Jarmuschek + Partner shows from 01. November 2025 (Opening: 31.10.) the exhibition “Nicht an jeder Palme hängt ‘ne Kokosnuss” by the artists Moritz Schleime und Corinne von Lebusa. Moritz Schleime’s oil paintings mix pirate adventures, Caribbean dreams and road trips with the subliminal gloom of cemetery stories and ghost trains. In his intoxicating images full of references to our pop culture and the places of longing of our time, human depths, excess and great fun alternate at the helm. Moritz Schleime + Corinne von Lebusa, Oceania, 2025, fineliner, colored pencil, watercolor, lacquer on fine cardboard, 50 x 40 cm In the supposed idyll of perfect physicality, stylish interiors and sunny oases, Corinne von Lebusa undermines expectations and role models with mischief and a twinkle in her eye. With great lightness of touch and openness, the artist depicts erotically charged encounters in pictorial spaces full of luminous, precisely placed colour drifts, in which the women take centre stage. Moritz Schleime + Corinne von Lebusa, Egypt study, 2014, fineliner, colored pencil, watercolor, lacquer on fine cardboard, 30 x 21 cm When Moritz Schleime and Corinne von Lebusa draw and paint together, it is like listening to an unconventional duet.

until 13.12. | #4840ARTatBerlin | Russi Klenner shows from Saturday, 1. November (Opening: 31.10.) the exhibition “Divine Cargo” by the artist Ross Taylor.. Ross Taylor’s work operates in a liminal space where creation and consumption merge. Through painting, performance, and bookmaking, the artist explores the ambiguity of the creative process — a terrain shaped by habits and indecision, where conventional methods give way to the instinctual and unidentifiable. The exhibition “Divine Cargo” revolves around the notion of a “divine cargo” — something special and precious that must be delivered safely to a place or person. Driven by a visionary mission and behaviors that linger on the edges of daily life — picking, scratching, waiting, staring — Taylor guides viewers to the outskirts of the city. For him, the “special material” being carried is habit itself. Growing up on the outskirts of Northwest London, Taylor developed the habit of nocturnal wandering. This evolved into formative psychogeographical explorations, imprinted in this body of work where figures and landscapes merge. Drawing on Irish and British folklore, particularly the Púca — a solitary spirit wandering between worlds — Taylor examines how costumes allow beings to become visible and invisible across different realities. Opening: Friday, […]

unil 25.10. | #4837ARTatBerlin | Galerie Z22 shows from 16. October 2025 the exhibition “Inside the Schrödinger Box” by the artist Olena Klochko. „Inside the Schrödinger Box“ ist ein Kunstprojekt, das die fragile und paradoxe Natur der menschlichen Existenz in einer zunehmend chaotischen Welt untersucht. Wie Schrödingers Katze, die in einer Kiste gefangen ist und gleichzeitig lebendig und tot ist, befindet sich die Menschheit in einem Zustand existenzieller Ungewissheit. Society is characterised by the vulgarity of politics, endless power struggles and oppressive forces that push people towards consumerism and imposed political doctrines. Faced with the suffering and loss caused by ongoing military conflicts, such as the war in Ukraine, people have distanced themselves from their true consciousness and are sinking into the superficial distractions of modern life. The pursuit of authority and digital dominance aims to undermine collective wisdom. With the decline of consciousness, people are in danger of disappearing into nothingness, trapped in the paradox of existence and non-existence, where the essence of our being could simply vanish. This project engages with real people and their psychology, as a kind of quantum oddity. The artist invites viewers to reflect on the fragility of our presence in the world—alongside its […]

until 22.11. | #4834ARTatBerlin | Galerie SCHMALFUSS BERLIN show from 18 October 2025 (Opening: 18.10.) the exhibition “True Companions” featuring works by Andreas Amrhein and Georg-Friedrich Wolf.

until 20.11. | #4831ARTatBerlin | Semjon Contemporary shows from Thursday, 16. October 2025 the exhibition “Freiheit im Malen” by the artist Klaus Steinmann. Klaus Steinmann, born in Darmstadt in 1939, can look back on a long artistic career. As a young man, he had the opportunity to experience the legendary exhibition The New American Painting 1959, which toured Europe and was also shown at the Berlin University of the Arts on Steinplatz – and it made a deep impression on him. So much so that he never allowed himself to be completely caught up in the disputes and infighting in and around concrete art. Klaus Steinmann went his own way. Constructive art as a tool, yes, but enriched by the (visual) experience of American minimal art and colour field painting. The basic shapes of the rectangle, circle and triangle have accompanied him throughout his artistic life and continue to do so today. Placing these shapes in tension with the multifaceted image background has allowed him to create a very differentiated and rich oeuvre. Klaus Steinmann, O.T.

until 22.11. | #4828ARTatBerlin | Galerie feinart berlin presents from Saturday, 11th October 2025 the exhibition “Stimmen von Stahl. Tellurische Gesichter” by the artist Karl Menzen. The feinart berlin gallery pays tribute to Karl Menzen (11 April 1950 – 19 November 2020), whose poetic sculptures adorn public spaces throughout Berlin. Karl Menzen would have turned 75 this year. Together with prominent institutions such as the Gerhard-Marcks-Haus in Bremen, the Haus am Lützowplatz in Berlin and the Kunsthalle Lehnin, the feinart berlin gallery is honouring the work of the metal sculptor this year, whose poetic steel sculptures can be seen in many public spaces in Berlin and other federal states. Karl Menzen’s work is unmistakably characterised by the principle of reduction to elementary geometric forms. His „Transformations“ arise, for example, from rectangular, square or round base plates, which he liberates for unfolding into space through simple incisions and bends. His guiding motif is to lend the hard, heavy material an essence of movement. The departure of the originally flat basic form into three-dimensionality is a dynamic event: the sculptures stand up, balance, take off, fly.

until 22.11. | #4825ARTatBerlin | Schindler LAB in Potsdam, presents from Saturday, 11. October 2025 the exhibition VOM DENKEN IN ZEITLOSIGKEIT by the artist Frank Rödel. WHAT A WONDER! What a sensual explosion of the most unusual and subtle colors, shapes, and structures, revealed to the viewer’s eye during hikes and especially when looking down from a bird’s-eye view at Iceland’s landscapes shaped by fire and ice! Frank Rödel, Aus luftiger Höhe gesehen, 100 x 130 cm, Mischtechnik auf Leinwand, 2025 How to find a language to give form and pictorial expression to what I have seen?

until 17.10. | #4821ARTatBerlin | Galerie oqbo shows from Friday, 19. September 2025 the group exhibition “Multiverse” with works from Natalie Czech, Katia Sophia Ditzler, Gerhild Ebel, Stefan Heuer, Bettina Hutschek , Thorsten Krämer, Frank Milautzcki, Erec Schumacher and Christine Zureich. The exhibition “Multiverse” brings contemporary positions in visual poetry to Berlin. Artists Natalie Czech, Katia Sophia Ditzler, Gerhild Ebel, Stefan Heuer, Bettina Hutschek, Thorsten Krämer, Frank Milautzcki, Erec Schumacher, and Christine Zureich are showing their works of visual poetry at the oqbo gallery. Visual poetry is booming and is one of the most exciting and diverse forms of expression in contemporary literature. It sees itself as an experimental field of cooperative and collective work that finds its audience primarily on the internet—on social media, in blogs, and on art portals. The artists work in dynamic and changing collaborations, organize themselves into networks, hold pop-up exhibitions, and create their own publication structures, such as indie publishers, art book publications, zines, and chapbooks. This has led to the development of a dynamic, international artistic scene that works in an interdisciplinary and cooperative manner. Vernissage: Friday, 19. September 2025, from 7 pm Reading & Talk: Thursday, 25. September 2025, from 7:30 pm […]

until 01.11. | #4817ARTatBerlin | Aurel Scheibler presents from 11. September 2025 the group exhibition SLUR by the artists Schutter, Tom Chamberlain, Jack Pierson, Andy Warhol, Alice Neel and Öyvind Fahlström. The English word “slur” is one of those terms that can be interpreted very differently depending on the context.In music,for example, it refers to a curved sign placed over notes and, with it, the indication that they should be played smoothly and seamlessly. Slur also denotes an extremely offensive and socially unacceptable term intended to denigrate and insult. In addition, it refers to inarticulate, unclear, or incorrect pronunciation, where words run into one another. Tom Chamberlain Slur, 2019 Acrylic on canvas 90 x 100 cm © Tom Chamberlain Slur takes its title from the painting by Tom Chamberlain in this exhibition. It is a work of ephemeral form. Our perception is destabilised, for in its appearance Chamberlain’s work operates on the boundary between something and nothing.The canvas reveals no structure, and the countless thin layers of paint show no brush marks. What was just supposedly seen dissolves again,and the eye wanders,searching for support on the smooth surface. David Schutter‘s works,such as the painting AIC G 219 shown here, like […]

until 04.10. | #4815ARTatBerlin | EBENSPERGER in the chapel at Luxoom Lab presents from Thursday, 11 September 2025, the first solo exhibition ‘Land Before Time’ by the young artist Arhun Aksakal. At the heart of the exhibition is Aksakal’s new video work Land Before Time. The 19-minute film weaves together documentary and poetic imagery into a visual essay on past and present civilizations and their impact on landscapes, architecture, and memory. The film traces a path from the gleaming white potash mountains—once industrial waste, now elevated into tourist monuments—to the submerged ruins of the ancient city of Hasankeyf in Turkey, a cradle of civilization erased by massive dam projects. Other sites include Ferropolis, the “city of iron” where monumental excavators now serve as a festival backdrop, Mount Nemrut, the Ilısu Dam, the gardens of Diyarbakır, and the Zollverein Coal Mine in Essen, where young parkour athletes transform Ulrich Rückriem’s sculptures into an obstacle course. Expanding on the film, the exhibition also presents a selection of new installations, forming a dense, immersive environment that allows visitors to experience and engage with Aksakal’s artistic language as a whole. Arhun Aksakal (*1995, Offenbach am Main) works across video, film, photography, sculpture, and performance. He studied […]

until 18.10. | #4813ARTatBerlin | KLEMM’S shows from 10. September 2025 the exhibition “Resent the Sky“ by the artist Elizabeth Jaeger and the exhibition “Chroma Trigger” by the artist Phillip Gabriel. Elizabeth Jaeger – Resent the Sky Resent the Sky, Elizabeth Jaeger’s third solo exhibition at Klemm’s, presents a visual choreography navigating grief and power. A chorus of coffin-sized steel frames is rigorously ordered throughout the gallery, each bearing gunmetal-blackened tubes that reach skyward. Planted inside these upright barrels are hand-formed ceramic flowers—fragile, fire-hardened, and laboriously made. They present as offering, protest, and aftermath. Together, they rise in a strict yet undulating gradient behind a reclining sculpture of two species. The two figures lie in intentionally nightmarish ambiguity: tenderness laced with violence, protection entangled with control. As an installation, Resent the Sky wrestles with Weltschmerz, heartbreak, and scale shock—how grief is painfully suspended between the intense intimacy of personal loss and the overwhelming abstraction of mass tragedy.

until 08.11. | #4810ARTatBerlin | Galerie Thomas Schulte (Potsdamer Straße) shows from Friday, 12. September 2025 (Vernissage: 11.09.) the exhibition “Sleepwalkers” by the artist Julian Irlinger. For his third solo exhibition at Galerie Thomas Schulte, Julian Irlinger is showing drawings, objects, and a video work—titled The Curtain of Time and commissioned by Portikus, Frankfurt/Main—collectively exploring the history and technique of hand-drawn cel animation and reflecting on the mediation of historical narratives. In his artistic practice, Irlinger approaches past events in sight of future conflicts. Through the excavation and recontextualization of historical fragments, his practice questions the mechanisms of memory and the transmission of history. Drawing on archives and historical aesthetics, his body of work—spanning drawing, film, photography, and sculpture—challenges dominant historical narratives and their cultural representations, as well as the ideological currents that shape them. Vernissage: Thursday, 11. September 2025, from 6 to 10 pm Exhibition period: Friday, 12. September until Saturday, 08. November 2025 Special opening hours for Berlin Art Week 2025: Sunday, 14.

until 01.11. | #4805ARTatBerlin | Galerie Thomas Fischer zeigt ab Thursday, 11. September eine Einzelausstellung der Künstlerin Dörte Eißfeldt. Dörte Eißfeldt has been exploring the creative and conceptual potential of photography as art since the late 1970s. Eißfeldt presents extracts of the visible world as we may have never considered them before: be it the human face or body or the effects of light, shadow and time on the physical conditions of things. At the same time, the materiality of different papers, textures, and printing techniques as well as the display of the prints on the wall or in a space play a decisive role. Opening: Wednesday, 10. September 2025, 6 – 9 pm. Exhibition dates: Thursday, 11. September – Saturday, 01. November 2025     Title image caption: Dörte Eißfeldt, courtesy of Galerie Thomas Fischer.

until 25.10. | #4803 ARTatBerlin | Jarmuschek + Partner shows from 13. September 2025 (Opening: 12.09.) the exhibition “Thinking about feeling” by the artist Katharina Stadler. Katharina Stadler finds her means of expression in colors, silhouettes, and gestural strokes on sewn-together fields of color, using them to visualize her experiences, memories, and reflections. In these works, the transitions from the subconsciously created to the intentionally directed seem to blur. Feelings and thoughts, it seems, manifest themselves and form a common, dynamic whole. Colored areas and brushstrokes intertwine, interpenetrate, and overlap, ending in one part of the picture only to begin again in a different way in the next or the one after that. With their symbolic potential, Katharina Stadler’s object-like works invite reflection on boundaries and finiteness. Again and again, one can start anew without having to discard what has already been recognized. Opening: Friday, 12. September 2025, 6 – 9 pm. Exhibition dates: Saturday, 13. September until Saturday, 25.

until 25.10. | #4800ARTatBerlin | Galerie Barbara Thumm show from Friday, 12. September 2025 (Opening: 11.09.) the exhibition “Profondeville” by the artist Thomas Zipp. This exhibition marks a milestone in our ongoing collaboration with the artist and follows his participation in the group exhibition “Anti-Pop II,” which we co-curated and through which we first introduced Zipp’s work to our program. Thomas Zipp, widely known for his intellectually demanding, multidisciplinary approach, has been a central figure in contemporary art in Germany and beyond since the late 1990s. His oeuvre encompasses drawing, painting, sculpture, installation, and performance, consistently engaging with complex historical narratives, speculative knowledge systems, and psychological architectures. In “Profondeville,” Zipp unveils an impressive ensemble of works that deepens his engagement with the intertwined fields of memory, identity, and perception. The house—both as architectural structure and as metaphor—runs as a leitmotif throughout the exhibition: not only as psychological interior, but as a permeable space in which the boundaries of self, history, and consciousness become fluid. Echoing Freud’s observation that one is no longer master in one’s own house, Zipp’s spatial installations operate like cognitive maps: fragmented, unstable, and permeated by hidden forces. The exhibition title “Profondeville” refers to a small Belgian […]

until 25.10. | #4797ARTatBerlin | EBENSPERGER BERLIN show from Sunday, 7 September 2025 the exhibition “What Holds Us” by the artist Meg Stuart. In What Holds Us the Ebensperger Gallery welcomes artist Meg Stuart with a series of videos in which her choreographic practice and knowledge come into light. The exhibition unfolds as a “journey of presences,” reverberating like an evolving landscape. In the videos, Meg Stuart directs her poetic and imaginative sensibility toward the body, situated within desolate landscapes of undefined spaces, brutalist architectures in decay or strangely familiar environments. Through an ongoing dialogue between body and space, these performed presences reveal the worldly conditions – and the quietly overlooked potentials – of embodiment. Her work seeks out uncanny spaces – not as a subject but as an anchor. The person is shown intersecting and internally negotiating with a world that carries and has shaped them and is, in turn, continuously being shaped by them. The setting – the Ebensperger building, a bunker imbued with political history – invites us to take part in a collective activation of a labyrinthine space, where its visual conditions hold the secrets for us to be perceived and discovered. Choreographies echo the space, […]

until 31.10. | #4794 ARTatBerlin | DUVE BERLIN presents from 10. September 2025 the exhibition „Bardo“ by the artist Andrew Moncrief. Andrew Moncrief’s recent body of work represents a distinct evolution in his artistic journey, marked by a shift toward a deeper exploration of formal abstraction and the limits of perception and embodiment. Anchored in his studies of quantum physics, non-western modes of spirituality and the experiential, his paintings reflect a dynamic sense of bodily unrest, a gesturing outside of the two-dimensional plane and the canvas itself. These works engage with key compositional techniques such as sacred geometry and rabatment which helps to guide the viewer’s perception and understanding of the space within the frame. In his most recent iteration of this body of work and new painting made for this exhibition, Moncrief turned his attention on the body itself. While elements of abstraction play an important part of the pictorial plane, it is the body that carries the weight of transformation. His paintings push physical and metaphysical boundaries, urging us to look beyond the surface of representation and to reconsider what lies unseen or outside of our known modes of looking. There is a compelling tension between two-dimensionality and […]

until 11.10. | #4791ARTatBerlin | Raab and JR Galleries present from 13. September 2025 (Opening: 12.09.) the exhibition La Divina – die Wienerin by the artist Nina Maron. The image of the emancipated Viennese woman is vividly in our minds from the Secession and the 1920s. At that time, Gustav Klimt painted young, beautiful women from his circle; many of his paintings are than, for a short time, in the homes of modern Viennese families whose fates were soon dramatically to change existentially for the worse. Unlike painting his model, Klimt is interested in the self-confidence of the Viennese women, their sure taste in clothing, jewelry, accessories, and in their dealings with intellectuals who adorn themselves with their quick wit and beauty. Through Gustav Klimt’s unusual painting, which combines modern with classical – just take the golden background, which stands for eternity in medieval painting – his works have found their way into the realm of high art, thanks in part to his eccentric models. One hundred years later, the Viennese artist Nina Marons role model was a Viennese artist, Maria Lassnig. With this example and after a strenuous apprenticeship with Adolf Frohner, the young Viennese artist became a respected […]

until 11.09. | #4786ARTatBerlin | Galerie Max Hetzler (Bleibtreustraße 45) presents from 11. September 2025 the exhibition HIGH NOON LUMEN by the artist Katharina Grosse. This exhibition, HIGH NOON LUMEN, a series of new paintings by renowned artist Katharina Grosse, follows a remarkable run of acclaimed solo presentations of Grosse’s work in 2025: the Art Basel Messeplatz commission, her largest project to date, which powerfully united structures and objects in a single painted image; the first exhibition of her early sculptural work, at Staatsgalerie Stuttgart; and her current show at Deichtorhallen Hamburg, which envelops the spectator in an expansive painting that embraces the specific architecture of the site. Widely known for her spectacular, immersive paintings in which explosive colour is sprayed directly onto buildings, interiors, landscapes and canvas, Grosse paints across different scales, surfaces and dimensions, disrupting our habitual way of ordering the world. Her paintings extend the visceral possibilities of the medium and reflect an ongoing exploration of colour, the body and perception in space. The use of a spray gun allows riotous colour to land clean on the surface and for the artist to scale her reach, responding reflexively to events and ideas that arise as she works. For […]

until 04.10. | #4780ARTatBerlin | Galerie feinart berlin presents from 11. September 2025 the exhibition “ÉCORCHÉ_AQUAE” by the artist Samira Freitag. Samira Freitag designs a comprehensive multimedia concept addressing questions of body, identity, role models and transformation. Under the title Écorché, Samira Freitag summarises her years of exploration of questions about the body, identity, role models and transformation in a multimedia concept, which she addresses in mise-en-scène of her own body inspired by ancient mythology and symbolic history. Her approach is bold, aggressive, a devotion to herself as a creative medium. Écorché, Latin for „skinning“, is the guiding motif. In 2025, the new focus is on water as an element and experience. Samira Freitag, „Sunbathe“, 2024, acrylic, oil, water colour, oil pastels, pigments on canvas, 140 x 140cm ©S.Freitag By incorporating the initial Häutungspuppen-Installation (skinning doll installation), Samira Freitag’s thesis project at the Berlin University of the Arts, which was nominated for the 2017 President’s Prize, the exhibition formulates a conclusion to nearly nine years of her artistic work. In casts, disguises and exposures of her own body, the artist questions gender identities, traditional role models and the idea of emancipation from a female perspective — between reactivation and reinterpretation. […]

until 01.11. | #4779ARTatBerlin | Galerie Dittmar shows from Wednesday, 10. September 2025 a Solo-exhibition by the artist Ernesto Tatafiore. Ernesto Tatafiore was born in Naples in 1943. He took part in the 1970 Venice Biennale, again in 1980 and 1990, and has worked closely with Jannis Kounellis since 1971. From 1975, repeated exhibitions at Lucio Amelio, one of the leading international avant-garde galleries of the time. Among others, 1981 exhibition there with Joseph Beuys, Tony Cragg, Mimmo Paladino, David Salle; 1984 (in the Villa Campolieto) with Richard Long, Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol. In addition, further early groundbreaking gallery exhibitions, for example at isy Brachot Paris, An-dré Emmerich New York, Lisson Gallery London, Paul Maenz Köl. Tatafiore distanced himself from the Italian Arte Povera and Transavanguardia movements, with which he initially had points of contact. He developed his forms of expression early on, working with different techniques and materials, the combination of painting and drawing, collage and object-like sculptures, the subversive approach. The theme of the French Revolution is essential, which for the artist “represents a kind of ‘great metaphor’” (Jean-Christophe Ammann) and expands into a comprehensive view of history as allegory. Robespierre toujours, 1970, Bleistift auf Japanpapier, 20 x […]

{Play}until 04.10. | #4823ARTatBerlin | Galerie Z22 shows from 06. September 2025 the Duo-exhibition “Dienst ist Dienst und Schnaps ist Schnaps” by the artists Christoph Bartolmäs and Axel Bunt. The German view of life is often characterised by the separation of seriousness and fun, which is expressed by the saying “Dienst ist Dienst und Schnaps ist Schnaps”. Many terms come into play here that reflect our culture and our view of work. Phenomena such as duty fulfilment, civil service law and duty rosters are not just bureaucratic side effects, but also expressions of a deeply rooted work ethic and loyalty to the employer.

At the company party, the focus is on informal socialising; people also want to get a little closer to each other in private. But anyone who goes too far overboard here (looks too deeply into the glass) can damage their own career. This is hinted at in the painting “oder flirten auf der Betriebsfeier” by Christoph Bartolmäs. People are drinking and engaged in dialogue, one man seems to be pondering a little indecisively. The title hints at the nature of his thoughts, perhaps he could do the same as the colleague to his left and get to know […]

until 04.10. | #4771ARTatBerlin | Semjon Contemporary shows from Friday, 5 September 2025 (Opening: 04.09.) the exhibition “Baal. Retrospective 1986–2025” by the artist Rick Castro. Rick Castro (*1958, Los Angeles) is considered one of the foremost chroniclers of a subcultural aesthetic intertwining fashion, sexuality, and photography. With the retrospective Baal. Retrospective 1986–2025, Semjon Contemporary presents for the first time in Berlin a comprehensive survey of Castro’s oeuvre spanning nearly four decades. The exhibition brings together iconic works alongside recent pieces, including the new series The Gates of Hell (2025). Castro’s images move between intimacy and staging, documenting queer subcultures while exploring dynamics of power and desire through photography. Curated in close collaboration with the artist, the exhibition underscores his lasting influence on contemporary visual culture since the 1980s. Opening: Thursday, 4 September 2025, 7:00–9:30 pm Exhibition dates: Friday, 5 September – Saturday, 4 October 2025 Artist Talk: Tuesday, 9 September 2025, 7 p.m. | Rick Castro in conversation with Nadine Dinter     Image caption title: Rick Castro, Baal, 2024, Archival digital print, 27,9 × 20,3 cm.

until 11.10. | #4767ARTatBerlin | Galerie Schindler shows from Saturday, 6 September 2025 the exhibition “Kindred Spirits” by the artist Sue Hayward. Sue Hayward’s exhibition Kindred Spirits opens up a multi-layered visual cosmos in which the connection between humans, animals, and nature is as much a theme as the dissolution of supposed boundaries. The title refers to the idea of an emotional closeness that extends beyond the visible. Sue Hayward, The Messengers, Öl, Wachs, Dammar und Acryl auf Gaze, Holz und Leinwand, 80 x 160 cm, 2025 By layering gauze, wax, and pigment, Hayward creates translucent surfaces that capture, filter, and reflect light. This interplay of coverage and permeability forms pictorial spaces that guide and withdraw the gaze—spaces that are “larger than the material itself,” according to the artist. Oben Sue Hayward, Floral, Öl, Wachs, Dammar und Acryl auf Gaze, Holz und Leinwand, 60 x 60 cm, 2025 Her works oscillate between figuration and symbolic condensation. Birds, sea creatures, and reptiles appear as mediators between times, continents, and spheres, symbolizing the ability to overcome boundaries and preserve fleeting moments. With Kindred Spirits, Hayward presents works that move between sensuality and reflection, opening spaces of resonance where the supposedly separate is […]

until 01.11. | #4765ARTatBerlin | REITER shows from , 11. September 2025 die Ausstellung “AHL” der Künstlerin Mette Homar. For her new exhibition at REITER, Danish artist Mette Homar has created a series of new works inspired by her close connection to the landscape of Ahl – a coastal strip on the Djursland peninsula in East Jutland. Over the past eight years, this place has become an anchor point in Homar’s artistic practice. She returns there again and again to walk its paths, photograph the changing light and terrain and translate these encounters into dynamic painterly compositions. This ongoing dialogue with Ahl has gradually shaped her work, incorporating fragments of the seascape, trees and coastline into her previously more abstract imagery. With the introduction of these natural elements, Homar’s connection to the land deepened. Ahl has become a place of belonging for her – an adopted home that continues to nourish her artistic work. Mette Homar, 2025 04, Ölkreide auf Papier, 194 x 131 cm About Mette Homar Mette Homar was born in Funen, Denmark, in 1974. Her career is as multi-faceted as her work: She first studied ceramics at the Kolding Design School in Denmark and later moved to […]

until 18.10. | #4761ARTatBerlin | Sexauer Gallery shows from 06. September 2025 (Opening: 05.09.) the exhibition “(Non)sense” by the artist Caroline Kryzecki. Caroline Kryzecki shows paintings on paper. Using the tip of a brush, she paints and dabs thousands of semi-circular shapes into a grid with gouache and watercolour. By changing the size and orientation of the shapes, as well as the different tones and the modu-lation of transparency and opacity, she creates works of great variety despite always using the same approach. The spectrum ranges from very austere to almost psychedelic. In the current exhibition, the almost sixty thousand grid fields of the small works and the over three hundred thousand fields of the large works offer unlimited possibilities for variation. Caroline exhibits (non)sense paintings. At the beginning of her career, she first became known for her ballpoint pen drawings with thousands of lines. Years later, she developed her grid paintings from these drawings. Using the tip of a brush, she painted and dabbed thousands of small semicircular shapes with gouache and watercolour into a grid. The grid paper was produced for her by the Handsiebdruckerei in Berlin according to her specifications. Kryzecki had conducted her first experiments on […]

until 20.09. | #4759ARTatBerlin | Laura Mars Gallery shows from Friday, 23 August 2025 (Opening: 22.08.) the exhibition “Berufsverkehr (Rush Hour)” by the artist Matias Bechtold. Matias Bechtold’s distinctive gaze on our world is essentially defined by shifts in scale. The urban topographies staged in his models offer two perspectives: one can perceive them as sculptural bodies, soaring above urban canyons at a dizzying height, only to imagine oneself a moment later inhabiting the miniature structures. For his most recent work Berufsverkehr (Rush Hour), he chose the world-famous archaeological site Machu Picchu as his point of departure, overloading it down to the last millimetre with the teeming traffic of a hyper-dense megacity. The work reveals unfamiliar perspectives on urban complexity and the relationship between architecture, space, and human activity. Opening: Friday, 22 August 2025, 7:00 pm Exhibition dates: Friday, 23 August – Saturday, 20 September 2025     Image caption tilte: Matias Bechtold, Berufsverkehr / Macchu Picchu, 2024/2025 (Detail).

until 01.11. | #4755ARTatBerlin | ARTES Berlin shows from Friday, 12 September 2025, the exhibition CONNECTING BERLIN by artists Christo & Jeanne-Claude in dialogue with new works by artist Marion Eichmann. Marking the 30th anniversary of the wrapping of the Reichstag, realised by Christo and Jeanne-Claude in 1995, the show – part of Berlin Art Week – offers an artistic exploration of democracy and its visible and hidden symbols. The Reichstag wrapping was not only a milestone in art history but also a powerful symbol of new beginnings, unity, and democracy. Marion Eichmann worked in and around the Reichstag, capturing her impressions in detailed drawings. In her studio, she transformed them into intricate paper cuts and vividly coloured collages. Commissioned by the Art Advisory Board, she created over a hundred works over the course of a year, portraying the parliament from unusual perspectives – from iconic facades to hidden workspaces, machinery, signs, and devices. “CONNECTING BERLIN” brings together the historic gesture of the Reichstag wrapping with a contemporary artistic view of Germany’s political centre, inviting reflection on visibility, participation, and the power of art in an open society. As part of Berlin Art Week, a special evening will take place […]

until 29.08. | #4751ARTatBerlin | Galerie Friese shows from Thursday, 14 August 2025 (Opening: 13.08.) the solo exhibition o.T. (31) by artist Franziska Holstein. The presentation comprises a new series of 31 canvases, displayed on a single wall. Taken as a whole, the works offer both an impressive insight into Holstein’s artistic process and an extraordinary viewing experience. The series connects formally and thematically to Holstein’s previous canvases, presented in her recent solo shows at the gallery (o.T. (7), 2024) and at the Von der Heydt Museum in Wuppertal (o.T. (20), 2023). At the beginning of her working process, Holstein arranges concrete forms and colours freely and associatively on the picture surface. Gradually, a more systematic approach emerges, which she applies consistently to all parts of the series: All motifs in the series o.T. (31) consist of 16 areas of identical surface size, divided only horizontally or vertically. In terms of colour, the canvases are limited to four tones – light blue, muted white, orange and black – which must appear in exactly this order on the image. Added to this is a strict symmetry of form and colour. Like all her series, o.T. (31) moves along the boundary between […]

until 15.11. | #4749ARTatBerlin | CAMERA WORK shows from 27. September 2025 a Solo exhibition by the artist Patrick Demarchelier. The exhibition is divided into two thematic focuses: Fashion photography and portraiture. These show impressively why Patrick Demarchelier is not only considered one of the “Big Five” of fashion photography, but is also one of the most influential photographic artists of his time. His work epitomises photography that combines elegance with substance – technically brilliant, yet full of a feel for the subtle nuances of expression. In Demarchelier’s fashion photographs, fabrics become sculptures, bodies become composites of light and movement. His collaboration with Christy Turlington marks a central chapter in his oeuvre. Their joint works are icons of an era. At the same time, Demarchelier’s portraits reveal a special closeness: Glenn Close, Paul Newman, Anthony Hopkins, Julia Roberts, Angelina Jolie, Demi Moore – they all appear not as stagings, but as real encounters. Diane Kruger, Kate Moss and Gi-sele Bündchen are also part of these multi-layered works, in which the photography elevates the personality to an artful verisimilitude. With this unmistakable sbl, Patrick Demarchelier is one of the most influential figures in modern photographic art – far beyond the world […]

until 24.10. | #4747ARTatBerlin | Galerie Gilla Lörcher shows from Saturday, 16. August 2025 (Opening: 15.08.) the exhibition “Amaurote“ by the artist Quentin Lefranc. Galerie Gilla Lörcher presents the second solo exhibition of French artist Quentin Lefranc (born 1987). Conceived as a place of study, architecture serves Quentin Lefranc as a framework, territory and playground for his works. He always establishes a dialogue between the place and what he exhibits there His works, which are located at the interface of different practices, function like open brackets in space. Through juxtapositions or juxtapositions, he questions what this space consists of. He experiments with its permeability, its hierarchies and its history. Even if a sculptural dimension dominates, his proposals favour a field of action rather than a practice and invite us to reflect on our existence and the creation of space. About Quentin Lefranc Quentin Lefranc lives and works in Paris (F). He received diplomas from the Art School in Rueil-Malmaison (2011) and the School of Arts Déco-ratifs in Paris (2013). Quentin Lefranc’s works have been shown in numerous art institutions and galleries: Palais de Tokyo, Paris (F); Centre d’Art Contemporain, Nîmes (F), Centre d’Art Chateauvert (F); Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts, Bruxelles […]

until 18.10. | #4744ARTatBerlin | Persons Projects shows from Saturday, 6 September 2025 the solo exhibition Secular Limbo by the artist Jyrki Parantainen. Secular Limbo is a poetic meditation on the alchemy of emotion and memory. As a key figure of the Helsinki School and former Head of Photography at Aalto University, Parantainen has been instrumental in shaping a concept-driven approach to photography that blends personal narratives with philosophical thought. The exhibition features recent works from the series Poetry of Circulation, along with sculptural pieces from Between Heaven and Earth. Parantainen’s artistic method integrates photography with text, found objects, wire, and symbolic materials, creating multi-layered compositions infused with existential and metaphysical references. Themes such as life and death, love and hatred, faith and doubt form the emotional spectrum of the show. His works challenge religious narratives while opening portals to the poetic and the unknown. In Poetry of Circulation, Parantainen treats the photographic image as a stage for intervention – punctured, annotated, and connected through threads, evoking tensions we cannot fully control. The accompanying sculptures feel like delicate instruments from another world: miniature cosmologies of gold, glass, cherubs, and laboratory tools. Each object contains a handwritten message hidden inside – […]

until 04.09. | #4741ARTatBerlin | Galerie feinart berlin shows from 09. August 2025 a Solo-exhibition by the artist Günter Schöllkopf. The graphic work of Günter Schöllkopf, born in Stuttgart in 1935, conveys the impression of an inquisitive, politically committed artist and thinker with a talent for etchings and a bubbling imagination. He received private tuition from Max Ackermann at the age of ten and completed his studies at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart at the age of 22. When he died at the age of 44, he left behind a total of around 1,000 works dealing with themes from world literature, music, history and politics. Guenter Schoellkopf, Helden, 34.3 x 49cm, 1953, ©feinartberlin On display in the exhibition are works from the cycles on Balzac, Don Quixote, François Villon, ancient myths and fairy tales as well as three of his rare paintings. Behind the depiction of the themes to which the cycles are dedicated, a proliferating root system of references can be discovered that connects all the pictures, all the figures. Schöllkopf is not interested in confirming predetermined orders and interpretations, let alone illustrating them. Instead, in his kaleidoscopic, ambiguous pictorial worlds, he wanted to achieve collective […]

until 30.08. | #4736ARTatBerlin | Galerie Thomas Schulte (Charlottenstraße) is showing the exhibition “Splitogetherness: another groove” by the artist Abraham Cruzvillegas. Galerie Thomas Schulte presents “Splitogetherness: another groove”, a solo exhibition of new drawings, sculptures and installations by Abraham Cruzvillegas. The works were made on site especially for the exhibition in Berlin and are related to Cruzvillegas’ ongoing practice and a series of projects he calls “autoconstrucción”. Using an improvisational approach, Cruzvillegas constructs sculptural works from everyday objects and materials found and selected on site by the gallery staff. These are presented alongside large-format drawings: loose, gestural interpretations of place and identity. In Corner Space, his “Blind Self-Portrait” series is continued with a three-dimensional work consisting of concealed correspondence documents. In an interplay of double images and interspaces, the works thematise processes, exchange, collectivity and the relationship between identity and environment – each rooted in its own continuous transformation Exhibition dates: Saturday, 28. June until Saturday, 30. August 2025     Title image caption: Abraham Cruzvillegas, “Splitogetherness: another groove”, installation view at Galerie Thomas Schulte, photo: GRAYSC.DE Exhibition Abraham Cruzvillegas – Galerie Thomas Schulte | Zeitgenössische Kunst in Berlin | Contemporary Art | Ausstellungen Berlin Galerien | ART at Berlin

until 06.09. | #4735ARTatBerlin | Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery Berlin shows from Thursday, 24 July 2025 the solo exhibition “The Need for Speed” by the artist Joachim Lambrechts. Flames erupt from the heels of pink roller skates, the wings of jets, the sails of windsurfers, the roof of a speeding BMW. Black smoke drifts across vibrant fields of colour. In his latest series, The Need for Speed, Lambrechts uses fire not only as a symbol of danger or destruction but also as a metaphor for movement, urgency, passion and the drive to transcend limits. While known for humorous portraits of superheroes, jazz legends and animals rendered in bold colours and a distinctive graphic style, this new body of work marks a shift — away from figuration and towards a more symbolic visual language. Vehicles and sporting equipment become metaphors for ambition and risk. One skier soars through the air with flaming feet and back, a direct nod to the myth of Icarus. Every painting balances between propulsion and collapse, success and burnout. Importantly, these are not utilitarian machines but exaggerated designs driven by the desire to go faster, further, higher — sometimes at the cost of safety. A subtle critique of […]

until 02.08. | #4732ARTatBerlin | Galerie Barbara Thumm shows from Saturday, 5 July 2025 the solo exhibition “SEDIMENTS: Sono-Choreo-Geo-Graphic Attunements” by the artist María José Arjona. This exhibition explores Arjona’s ongoing performative research, in which the body, movement, sound, and space are treated as layers of sediment that shift over time through presence, resonance, and translation. Her works operate at the intersection of choreography, geography, and sonic installation – emerging from acoustic and embodied inscriptions that resist fixation yet linger powerfully in space. The exhibition is curated by Melanie Roumiguière. María José Arjona © die Künstlerin / Galerie Barbara Thumm Artist Talk: On Thursday, 10 July 2025 at 7:30 PM, María José Arjona will be in conversation with Melanie Roumiguière at the daadgalerie, focusing on a lesser-known aspect of her practice: her work with text.

until 31.08. | #4730ARTatBerlin | Galerie Z22 shows from 03. July 2025 the exhibition “NEW YORK – BERLIN” by the artist Wilfried Schwerin von Krosigk. Wilfried Schwerin von Krosigk, a flaneur through cultural biotopes, between German neo-expressionism and American pop culture, moved from Cologne to bubbling New York in the mid-1980s after studying art – at a time when the East Village was regarded as the thermal centre of postmodern overheating. Wilfried Schwerin von Krosigk, Du musst dein Leben ändern, 1986, Mixedmedia, 172 x 172, 40 x 30 In this urban hothouse, Schwerin von Krosigk begins to develop his artistic language with gestural painting on precarious picture supports – blinds, cardboard, plexiglass. What initially seems like impetuous improvisation turns out on closer inspection to be an aesthetic experimental arrangement in which pictograms, ornaments, urban found objects and ironically broken symbolisms condense into semiotic processes. In the midst of industrial abundance, the artist pursues an alchemy of the marginal, an alienation of purpose that transposes the overlooked to the meta-level through re-evaluation. Wilfried Schwerin von Krosigk, Times Spquare, 1988, Mixedmedia, 57 x 75 It is no coincidence that we find him in the circle of those icons of American contemporary art […]

until 30.08. | #4726ARTatBerlin | Galerie Schindler shows from 03. July the exhibition “Loose Threads, Holding Us” the artist Anna-Lisa Unkuri. A recurring theme in Anna-Lisa Unkuri’s work is the balance between reality and unreality, both on an atmospheric and figurative level. Loose threads that hang on us and either keep us from diving into a fantasy realm, perhaps into oblivion and freedom, or keep us in reality, characterised by reason and the desire to do the right thing. Anna-Lisa Unkuri, (Horse Girl), 2025, Mischtechnik auf Leinwand, 30×30 cm For Anna-Lisa Unkuri, these threads symbolise the ambivalence of our lives: is it about growing up or about the uncertainty of how to actually grow up? Or perhaps it’s about not wanting to grow up at all. The protagonists in her pictures are often in a state of complete presence. They are unaware of a possible observer and exist in an isolated, independent moment. These works are the result of an approach that is typical of Anna-Lisa Unkuri: She seeks to explore the subject through the use of colour and composition. Anna-Lisa Unkuri,Two, Mischtechnik auf Leinwand, 70 x 50cm, 2025 Unkuri usually begins her work abstractly and intuitively. Some of the […]

until 05.09. | #4724ARTatBerlin | Crone Berlin shows from the 28th. June 2025 the exhibition The Principle of Chance by the artist Józef Jarema. On view is a series of abstract works on paper created between the 1940s and 1960s which underline Jarema´s important role in the post war avantgarde scene. Józef Jarema was a visionary, multinational figure—an artist, painter, playwright, actor, and cultural networker whose life and work transcended borders. Born in 1900 in Stary Sambor (then part of Austrian Galicia, now Ukraine) and passing away in 1974 in Munich, Jarema left behind a body of work that resonates with personal intensity and international scope. Focusing on his postwar years in Rome, the exhibition The Principle of Chance explores Jarema’s intuitive, gestural approach to painting—a response to both the horrors of war and the desire to reconstruct meaning through artistic freedom. Deeply influenced by his friendship with Jean Arp and the Dadaist notion of “intentional coincidence,” his work embodies a poetic balance between control and chaos, between organic form and abstract composition. Jarema was not only a prolific artist but also a cultural prime mover. As co-founder of the influential Art Club in Rome, he was a driving force in building […]

until 02.08. | #4718 ARTatBerlin | Jarmuschek + Partner shows from the 21st. June 2025 the exhibition “Komorebi Komplex” by the artist Patrick Cierpka. At the center of Patrick Cierpka’s current works is the Japanese phenomenon of Komorebi, which describes the delicate play of light when rays of sunlight fall through leaves, creating filigree patterns of light and shadow. In his exhibition, Patrick Cierpka expands on this phenomenon – deeply rooted in nature and its subtle beauty. Sunlight falls through the leaves of a tree, transforming water into glittering dots or colored surfaces swirl around human faces and bodies like a rushing cosmos. The artist captures this special atmosphere in his new paintings and thematizes its presence and transience. Light and colors touch an associatively charged pictorial world that is filtered or reflected in his works. He creates a connection between the natural beauty of light and human existence, giving them a deeper emotional and symbolic meaning. The works invite viewers to explore both the ephemeral beauty of nature and the complexity of human experience. Opening: Saturday, 21. June 2025, 11 am – 6 pm. Exhibition dates: Saturday, 21. June until Saturday, 02. August 2025     Title image caption: ©PATRICK […]

until 01.08. | #4717ARTatBerlin | Galerie Gilla Lörcher shows from Friday, 27 June 2025 (Opening: 26.06.) the group exhibition „VOLLBILDMODUS #2“ with Claudia Desgranges, Katrina Blannin, Doris Marten, Christine Reifenberger, Birte Horn and Sandrine Mahéo. VOLLBILDMODUS is an exhibition series featuring six female artists from Berlin, Ulm, Cologne, and London who explore abstract painting in a variety of forms. The exhibition presents an interaction of painting within space. Colour painting, minimalism, concrete painterly approaches, and gestural elements combine to create a dynamic interplay of color and movement. The result is an engaging alternation of perception levels, turning VOLLBILDMODUS into a stage for painting. Participating artists are Claudia Desgranges, Katrina Blannin, Birte Horn, Sandrine Mahéo, Doris Marten, and Christine Reifenberger. The concept for the exhibition originated from the Cologne-based painter Claudia Desgranges. Following the first presentation at Kunstraum 21 in Bonn in March 2025, Galerie Gilla Lörcher in Berlin serves as the second venue for the VOLLBILDMODUS series. The exhibition will continue to be shown at various art locations throughout 2025–2027, each time with a different focus. Opening: Thursday, June 26, 2025, 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. Exhibition date: Friday, 27 June – Friday, 1  August 2025     Image caption title: […]

until 19.07. | #4712ARTatBerlin | Galerie alexander levy shows from 13 June 2025 the exhibition Zucker by the artist Felix Kiessling. alexander levy presents Zucker, a solo exhibition by Felix Kiessling. The exhibition comprises three groups of works – Work (2025), You (2025) and Seating (2025) – and examines the body as a permeable, affective medium that inscribes itself into its surroundings. In this context, fixed boundaries between self and space are questioned and the subtle dialogue between material presence, memory and socially constructed frames of perception are made visible. In Arbeit (2025), raw aluminium plates are altered by a biochemical corrosion reaction between the metal surface and bodily fluids. Chemically treated condensation water – collected by the artist himself, his partner and his son – is applied to the aluminium with the help of textiles. Some works show indefinable traces of endogenous salts and acids that have been deposited over time. The resulting organic forms elude conscious design and appear as direct traces of physical proximity and touch. Du (2025) is a thermal imaging camera installation in the form of a bathroom mirror. It invites us to reflect beyond the external appearance by capturing invisible processes such as circulation, […]

Until 19.07. | #4706 ARTatBerlin | Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery Berlin shows from 12th June 2025 (Vernissage: 11th June) the solo exhibition „Point of No Return“ with the artist Michael Dohr. Mystical shapes, synthetic and bodily forms converge in the works of Austrian artist Michael Dohr, evoking systems and processes in flux – something being made or undone. Point of No Return, the title of the artist’s first solo exhibition at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery, Berlin, references the idea of an irreversible tipping point, embodied in the recurring motif of a falling drop. Whether a teardrop, a leak, blood, rain, ink, industrial waste, the drop is a symbol of suspended consequence, beautiful and doomed. This is work made in response to a world saturated with decisive moments: from the pandemic to the climate emergency, from a new geo-political situation to artificial intelligence, from synthetic biology to the metaverse. We know that collapse is coming, but the drop is yet to hit the ground. In this space of anticipation, Dohr doesn’t offer resolution or return, but invites us to consider what might come after the fall. The works suggest that within collapse, there may be the raw material for something new: forms of […]

until 22.08. |#4703ARTatBerlin | Q Gallery shows from 28th June 2025 (Vernissage: 27.06) the solo exhibition „QUINTESSENCE“ by the artist Rashid Al Khalifa. The exhibition is curated by Yasmin Sharabi, Director of the RAK Foundation. Rashid Al Khalifa, born in 1952 in Riffa (Bahrain), is an internationally recognised artist, art collector and patron of contemporary art and a member of the Royal House of Bahrain. He studied at Hastings College of Arts and Technology in Great Britain and began his artistic career with figurative painting, particularly landscapes, which were strongly characterised by impressionist influences. Over the course of his career, his style has evolved from traditional painting techniques to abstract and conceptual forms of expression. Today, he is known for his innovative works with reflective materials, geometric structures and minimalist compositions that emphasise light, space and movement. His works operate at the interface of painting, sculpture and architecture and interact with their surroundings in a way that actively involves the viewer in the artistic process. Rashid al Khalifa, Mobile Column VIII (Yellow), 2025, Enamel on Stainless Steel, 120 x 90 x 90 cm Al Khalifa draws his inspiration from the surrounding landscape and architecture. Light, colours and the atmosphere of […]

until 28.06. | #4701ARTatBerlin | Laura Mars Gallery shows from 24. May 2025 (Opening: 23.05.) the exhibition -Du- by the artists Anke Völk and Frank Maier. The exhibition -DU- presents two independent artistic positions that could hardly be more connected – a couple for over 30 years: the Berlin artists Anke Völk and Frank Maier. The focus is not on the individual work or its stylistic characteristics – as present as they are. Rather, the focus should be on the deliberately chosen title -DU-. And here on the fundamental human experience that we do not recognise ourselves, the world – and also art – by retreating into the ego, but only in the other person – in You. In this exhibition, the “you” not only becomes a metaphor for relationship, but also a space for thinking about difference, closeness, reflection and independence. In the works on display, two attitudes unfold, different in expression and materiality, which do not harmonise but coexist, question, complement and sometimes contradict each other. -DU- is an exhibition about closeness and difference, about connection without dissolution and about the profound knowledge that art, like life, only experiences its breadth in the other. Frank Maier, Über Simulation […]

until 05.07. | #4698ARTatBerlin | KLEMM’S shows from 23. May 2025 the exhibition “Film Noir” by the artist Zuzanna Bartoszek. In her first solo exhibition in Germany, Film Noir, Zuzanna Bartoszek presents a series of powerful new paintings that explore the most romantic and feverish dimensions of love – longing, grief, desire and intoxicating blindness. In Film Noir, Bartoszek directs her gaze to the often overlooked characters and spaces on the margins of love stories: the friends on the third wheel, the widows, the quietly grieving, the havens (for lovers and loners). About Zuzanna Bartoszek Born in 1993 in Poznań, Poland, and currently living in Berlin, Zuzanna Bartoszek is a painter and poet whose multidisciplinary work defies easy categorisation. While her paintings have been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, the Kunsthalle Zürich, the Gaylord Apartments in Los Angeles and the Cabin Gallery in New York, among others, this practice is complemented by a strong literary presence. In 2016, she published her first poetry collection Niebieski Dwór with Disastra Publishing. This was followed in 2021 by Klucz wisi na Słońcu, published by WBPiCAK and nominated for the 2022 Wisława Szymborska Award. 2025 will see the publication of […]

until 07.06. | #4696ARTatBerlin |WENTRUP currently shows the exhibition “Cross Over” by the artist Desire Moheb-Zandi. Desire Moheb-Zandi’s work crosses borders – both literally and metaphorically. The exhibition ‘Cross Over’ explores her practice at the intersection of craft and art, cultural identities, materials, traditions and experiments. Born in Berlin to Iranian and Uzbek-Turkish parents and raised in Turkey, Moheb-Zandi’s work explores themes of identity and movement between different cultural contexts. This cultural interplay is evident in her weaving practice, which integrates both traditional techniques and contemporary methods. By using upcycled threads and natural fibres, she addresses the evolution of the craft and its potential as a medium for artistic expression. Memory Lake, 2025, Leinen, Samt, synthetische Fäden, Lurex, Wolle, Seil, Kordel, Nylon, Füllung; 180 x 157 x 15 cm In ‘Cross Over’, weaving is depicted as a representation of transition and transformation – threads that intersect and form a uniform, changing structure. The process is likened to a textile score in which the weaving unfolds to the rhythm of the loom and the artist’s manual intervention. This interaction reflects a balance between structured technique and spontaneous creation, linking past and present practices. The exhibition encourages the viewer to engage with […]
