A special exhibition at the Ephraim-Palais on art and migration in Berlin since the 1970s.
The special exhibition “Divided Lives: Art and Migration in Berlin” sets out to uncover traces of the past. It features art from the 1980s to the present day that addresses the theme of migration. Rarely seen works from the Berlin Museum’s collection, along with several loans, tell stories of exile, everyday life, and self-determination.
