Berlin, 7 September 2016. With 120 events, more than 50 partners and 6 days of art, the fifth Berlin Art Week will be a key event for the international art world, featuring highlights of the art year during the third week of September. The art fairs abc art berlin contemporary and Positions Berlin will present the work of over 350 artists, while large scale exhibitions at Berlin art institutions feature the work of Halil Altindere, Anne Imhof, Andreas Greiner, Sven Drühl, Yvonne Roeb, and Gordon Parks. In addition, three art prizes will be awarded and exhibitions will be presented showing the respective artists’ work, while a programme at Kino International will focus on the medium of the artist film. A 12-hour special finale of the 9th Berlin Biennale will take place alongside openings and special events at 20 project spaces and nine private collections, highlighting the lively art life of the city, which presents itself each year in a new way with its many facets.
Berlin Art Week is made possible by the Senate Department for Economics, Technology and Research and the programme receives the logistical support of the Senate Chancellery – Cultural Affairs.
Cornelia Yzer, Senator for Economics, Technology and Research:
“Art Week is a showpiece of Berlin’s contemporary art scene and has made the city as a hub for creativity even more attractive to tourists, young entrepreneurs and companies from Germany and abroad. Last year, more than 100,000 international specialist visitors and art fans came to Art Week. We want to repeat this success this year with the fifth edition. Art Week enriches Berlin, which is home to Germany’s densest scene of galleries and art production.”
