Galleries

Apart from the museums, the gallery scene leads the way for contemporary art. Locations include the Halle am Wasser (close to the central train station), the City West in Charlottenburg, anywhere on and around Auguststraße in Berlin’s Mitte district, or Potsdamer Straße. Classical vernissages are a good platform for budding artists and for merging concepts, such as merging art with theatre or gastronomy, setting up salons in private homes and setting up art projects in public spaces. Berlin’s gallery scene is always coming up with new ideas - it follows the motto that art is fun!
