CONTEMPORARY BERLIN 2026

The exhibition features a carefully curated selection of international artists from various countries whose artistic work spans a broad spectrum of forms of expression:

from painting, sculpture, and photography to digital art, installations, and artistic jewelry.

The curatorial project was conceived to create a coherent and dynamic dialogue between the various

works of art, in which each form of artistic expression interacts with the others within the framework of a fluid visual narrative.

The goal is to offer visitors a comprehensive and critical overview of current trends in the contemporary art scene, while highlighting art’s ability to interpret the complexity of the present through new perspectives and aesthetic sensibilities.

The Heinz Galinski Gallery is a renowned exhibition venue in the heart of Berlin.

The gallery is characterized by its minimalist and functional design and offers a bright and versatile exhibition space that is ideally suited for presenting contemporary artworks in a high-caliber international context.

The space perfectly embodies the concept of the contemporary “white cube.”

Located in the Gesundbrunnen neighborhood of Mitte, it sits at the vibrant heart of Berlin’s art scene, surrounded by one of the world’s most dynamic cultural environments.

This prime location allows the exhibition to become part of one of the most influential creative districts in the German capital and to foster dialogue with an international and cosmopolitan audience.

The event also features a dedicated section for video art, with the following artists participating:

• AIDA MURATORI
• CELSO PREI
• DRAGAN MARKOVIĆ MARKUS
• DARREN ENGLAND
• LETTERIO SCOPELLITI
• NAHARRO
• MASSIMILIANO LIGRANI
• RIKXECOM

In addition to the digital works created specifically by these artists, video projections will complement the narrative of the physical exhibition.

Many artists exhibiting works in the

gallery will also be featured in the video program, offering a complementary and dynamic

perspective on their artistic exploration as they explore the boundary between materiality and digital imagery.

The opening reception offers artists, visitors, collectors, and professionals from the art world the opportunity to meet and network—accompanied by a welcome cocktail in an atmosphere designed to foster dialogue and cultural exchange.

The official awards ceremony will take place during the course of the evening:

All participating artists will receive a certificate of artistic excellence and the “Contemporary Artist of Berlin 2026” trophy in recognition of the value and quality of the artistic works presented as part of this international exhibition.
