Works by Eileen Farida Almarales Noy, Thomas Bratzke, Felipe Dulzaides, Marlies Pahlenberg, Lisa Schmidt-Colinet, Alexander Schmoeger, Hans Hs Winkler, Andrea Zaumseil and Florian Zeyfang.


In the context of the extreme political upheavals of the 20th and 21st centuries, the exhibition tells stories of people from both cities at different times. Stories that are hardly known or not known at all.

It is about big politics, about real life and survival, about incredible biographies between fiction and reality. The artists in the exhibition live in Berlin and Havana; their biographies are often anchored in both cities.

They have all experienced the consequences of political decisions in the most diverse forms. The works shown go far beyond the reflection of individual realities; fiction mixes with documentary and interweaves to create an artistic view of the little-known history and present of two special cities and their people.
