Pride and Prejudice

44 international artists await you on all 3 floors of the former prison in Lichterfelde! Here is the list of all artists.

Summer is here, and with it comes a very special time of joy, acceptance and celebration – Pride Month. 

Since the uprising of queer people against police brutality and violence in the New York bar “ Stonewall Inn” on June 28, 1969, July in Berlin has also become the month of the queer community. This month we celebrate ourselves and set an example of love, diversity and equality.   But the parades not only testify to diversity and love, they also draw attention to grievances. As we gather this month to celebrate pride and love, we should remember that the fight for the rights and dignity of all people continues, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

I'm thrilled to meet you there.

At Easter, the non-profit prideART Berlin e.V. turns 2 years old and is happy to be able to host an exhibition again with many queer international artists.

Just as PRIMAL MATTER describes the underlying concern, we have now also suggested the MEANING of life and the SENSUALITY of experience as inspiration for the artists.

There are always a variety of very different styles and subjects... We show paintings, photography, sculptures & collages. On the 3 floors of the former prison in Lichterfelde you walk from cell to cell and be surprised by what appeals to your senses.

Additional events include a life drawing workshop on Friday, guided tours of the entire building on Sunday and Monday, and the popular Puppy Play Day again on Easter Monday.

Paul Middleton will be singing at the opening and many of the artists will be there for the party and meeting guests.

I look forward to meeting you there.

What is home? Where is home? Is home a place or a feeling? Can I exchange one home for a new home? Is home unchanging or a growing and therefore constantly changing phenomenon? Are globality and homeland compatible? The 26 artists addressed these and other questions. Works have been created that address the closely interwoven aspects of identity, origins and family, but also those that deal with the high emotional potential of the term “home”. The turn to the landscape as a place of idyll and longing is also represented in the exhibition.

The exhibition is organized by "Bund internationaler Künstler e.V." www.b-i-k.info/ **

VENUS 2023 PrideArt

Our society is repositioning itself towards different living environments.

The norms known as “classic identity roles” - from the post-war period - are, for example, supplemented by other gender identities. With this development, the perspectives on “feminine aesthetics” also expand and allow for unimagined possibilities. The exhibition “Venus” deals with views and perspectives of this change, starting from “traditionally” female representations of the post-war period through to abstract structures. Broaden your perspective too.

 I'm looking forward to meeting you.
