Berlin Biennale

the berlin biennale is the forum for contemporary art in one of the most attractive cities for art. taking place every other year at changing locations throughout berlin it is shaped by the different concepts of well-known curators appointed to enter into a dialogue with the city, its general public, the people interested in art as well as the artists of this world. the german capital is continuously under change thus remaining fragmented, diverse and contradictory. it is this particular mixture of high contrasts and a relaxed manner defining berlin side by side that does not only attract international artists, many of whom choose berlin as their base and place for production. every two years the berlin biennale explores artistic developments to present the unseen and the unfamiliar before the background of this inspiring atmosphere. in 1998 the 1st berlin biennale took place founded on the initiative of eberhard mayntz and klaus biesenbach – founding director of the kunst-werke berl
