Talk
For decades, Berlin has been regarded as a place of aspiration for artists from all over the world. Yet its self-image as an international art metropolis is coming under pressure: public funding is being cut, the art market is proving fragile, and private institutions are closing.

So what remains of the ‘Berlin myth’? What still makes the city an attractive centre for the arts today, what are its particular strengths – and where can new impetus come from? What does the Berlin art scene need to preserve its diversity and international appeal? And what expectations do artists have of the city and its cultural policy?
This will be discussed by Till Fellrath, Director of the Hamburger Bahnhof, the artist Antje Majewski, and Moritz van Dülmen, Managing Director of the state-owned Kulturprojekte Berlin GmbH.
Moderator: Elke Buhr, editor-in-chief of *Monopol*, the magazine for art and life.
