Curators: Marius Babias, Arkadij Koscheew
Location: Uferhallen, Uferstrasse 8-11 & Uferstudios, Badstrasse 41a / Uferstrasse 23, 13357 Berlin
At the Uferhallen and Uferstudios, Neuer Berliner Kunstverein (n.b.k.) presents the project INDUSTRY. It focuses on the complex of the former main workshops of the Berlin Transport Authority, bridging the history of the Gesundbrunnen district in the 20th century, characterized partly by industrialization, with the current discourse on deindustrialization and the culture industry. An expansive kinetic artwork by artist Oscar Peters references the former “Badstrasse Boulevard” and a roller coaster erected in 1924 at Badstrasse 8. It will also serve as a platform for diverse artistic interventions by both locally based and internationally connected artists. INDUSTRY humorously explores possible futures for cultural and art venues, encouraging a deeper look into the historical roots of the neighborhood.
