For the day of liberation on May 8th Mitte Museum opens the multi-media exhibition “Der Krieg und ich – Kriegskinder 1939 bis 1945” in the museum’s garden. The exhibition focusses on children’s perspectives and their experiences of the second world war.
Visitors can walk through three containers where they can interact with objects, experience sound documents and historical film excerpts. Especially young visitors are invited to reflect on the way migration and war affect their own lives.

in sight is the first program sequence of DISLOCATIONS. It examines how different spaces condition the (in)visibility of bodies—showing, controlling, and inscribing them into history. Queer, female*, and subcultural perspectives on archives disrupt imposed orders through moments of shift and distortion. The exhibition employs projections to highlight what often remains in the dark: videos by Philipp Gufler and Naomi Rincón Gallardo and a sculpture and video by Constantin Hartenstein appear in the dimly lit exhibition space, displayed alongside slides from galerie weisser elefant. These works contribute to a feminist reinterpretation of archival materials in a display designed by Martha Schwindling. The exhibition is in dialogue with a performance by Lola von der Gracht and Danila Lipatov’s research on queer subcultures in the late GDR.

The Recycling Design Award is one of the most important platforms for sustainable, innovative design and has been honouring creative approaches that develop new, functional and aesthetic objects from supposed waste for over a decade. Galerie Nord shows the works of the four award winners and of the 23 nominated ideas.

Visions for the reconstruction in a divided city: Photographs by Bettina Cohnen 2022/2024 and photographers of the Berlin administration 1947-1954

»Elsewhere I am you | Woanders bin ich du« is the first solo exhibition by Berlin-based Austrian artist, choreographer and author Adam Man (aka Sandra Man)*. In the exhibition at Galerie Wedding, the artist presents his video works, deeply related to performance art, as well as their poetry, text-related works and an accompanying programme of performances, workshops and live actions.

The exhibition asks fundamental questions about care: Why do we care for other people? And who do we care for and who don’t we care for?

The third edition of KISR – Kunst im Stadtraum takes place at Leipziger Straße (2023 – 2025) and focusses on another part of Berlin-Mitte that is grounded in an utopian city planning concept. Three temporary art works are created from spring 2024: Gertraudenhain by artist Christof Zwiener from March 2024, Diadéo trésor by artist Kandis Friesen from September 2024 and the artist group’s msk7 work rüber machen in March 2025. Poligonal accompanies KISR Leipziger Straße with a program that negotiates questions of architecture, urban development and art in public spaces.
