Galerie EIGEN + ART

The EIGEN + ART gallery, originally from Leipzig, has had a second location in Auguststraße in Berlin since 1992. It presents contemporary artists in the fields of media, film/video, photography, installation, painting and sculpture, as well as conceptual art and performance. The gallery continually works together with a fixed group of artists, whereby the programme is supplemented at regular intervals by the works of individual young artists. With the EIGEN + ART Lab, which is moving into the third floor of the former Jewish Girls’ School Berlin in Auguststraße 11-13 just a few buildings further on, at the end of March 2012, the EIGEN + ART Gallery has now already opened its third branch. Exhibitions of international artists, who are not yet established in Berlin, will be presented here. All the exhibitions, each of which will run from two to three months in the EIGEN + ART Lab, will be accompanied by a series of publications. This new concept will enable the gallery to work together on a long-term basis with artists, who are not part of its own group.
