Centered around themes of art, culture, and nature, the so-called “Spreepark” – the prominent amusement park of the GDR - transforms into a redefined public space for the city of Berlin. The site serves for the Spreepark Art Space as both a reference point and a real-time laboratory. Showcasing art embedded in the context of urban landscape, nature, architecture and public space, Spreepark Art Space functions as an interdisciplinary platform for the production of art intertwined in planning, research, and art education.

As a key component of the future Spreepark’s design, art provides fresh impulses and opens new perspectives on the park: It inscribes itself into the entire structure of the site through permanently installed artworks, temporary exhibitions, and artistic interventions. Art is made touchable, walkable and immersive for all visitors – an accessible experience that encourages interaction and exploration.

Working with architects and engineers, among others, artists will create site-specific artworks – some ephemeral, others permanent. Former amusement park attractions such as the old Ferris Wheel and Monte Carlo Drive will be brought back to life as artistic interventions until Spreepark’s anticipated opening in 2026. Developed works include those by artists Iván Argote, Böhler & Orendt, Claudia Comte, Sol Calero, modulorbeat, realities:united and Stefan Shankland.

Until the Spreepark opens, the exhibitions at Spreepark Art Space will bring the park into the Eierhäuschen. The exhibitions that emerge here engage fundamentally with the site itself, its unique history and conceivable future. 

Temporary interventions, permanent works, educational programmes, architectural impulses and nature itself invite visitors to create new experiences within the urban space.
