artburst berlin
artburst berlin e.V. is a young art association that organizes exhibitions and cultural events with local and international artists on a voluntary basis.
Our exhibitions address current, socially relevant topics. We aim to incorporate various media and formats into our curatorial concepts. Thus, we must give different artistic positions the space to show their complexity through other forms, such as talks, performances, and screenings. We are built upon intersectional, feminist, and post-migrant perspectives, which are the foundation of our grassroots-democratically organized work. Consequently, Diversity is a significant prerequisite for our orientation in the art field and our exhibition concepts.
The exhibitions we curate take place all over Berlin. We are not tied to a fixed exhibition space. This allows us to react to each space in a new way, thus presenting formats and diverse exhibitions away from cultural institutions. In doing that, we aim to create space for new ideas and experiments for us and the artists. Our central concern is developing visibility for diverse life realities and space for exchange and networks.
It is important to us to promote art mediation that has a low threshold and is, therefore, able to reach different groups in society. Accordingly, our work is based on a foundation of dialogue and aims to unite people through communal engagement with art. Through the networks we create for and with artists, we encourage the encounter of diverse visions.
