The artist-run project space Die Möglichkeit einer Insel derived its name from Michel Houellebecq's 2005 science fiction novel with the same name and its actual location on Inselstraße in Mitte. In a gutted Plattenbau, one of the very last erected in former GDR, exhibition projects, compiled by various curators and shown in loose sequence, take place. This special venue in the very center of Berlin offers artists a possibility to experiment with space, architecture, and urbanism apart from an omnipresent art market pressure and its immanent force for product placement.
