Neue Nationalgalerie at Potsdamer Platz

5th berlin biennial - Neue Nationalgallerie

Neue Nationalgalerie, Kulturforum Potsdamer Platz, Potsdamer Straße 50, 10785 Berlin-Tiergarten - U2 Potsdamer Platz/ S1 / S2 / S 25 Potsdamer Platz

The iconic glass hall of Mies van der Rohe’s ultra-modernist Neue Nationalgalerie in former West Berlin has inspired various responses from artists. Among them, a film installation by Susanne M. Winterling explores the water condensation that flaws van der Rohe’s masterpiece, while Gabriel Kuri builds up a participatory sculpture that reorganizes one of the building’s regular service operations. Cyprien Gaillard brings an unpretentious public sculpture from a housing project in Paris to the terrace of the museum thus positioning a symbol for one failed social-architectural ideal on the grounds representing an opposed, triumphant architectural ideal.
