In the STUDIO BERLIN exhibition the Boros Foundation is presenting works from 118 contemporary artists, who live and work in Berlin. National and international artworks in the fields of photography, sculpture, painting, video, sound, performance and installation will be on view. The exhibition, organized by the Boros Foundation, can be viewed from September 9 onwards and will take place in Berghain, Panorama Bar, Säule and Halle.

Berlin has the highest density of ateliers, studios and art workshops in Europe – artists from all over the world move to the German capital to work. In the Spring of 2020, drastic changes occurred: planned exhibitions and art fairs were cancelled or postponed, galleries and museums closed and larger projects could not be realized. In addition, the nightlife in Berlin was completely shut down. It is because of this situation that Boros and Berghain came together. The main purpose of this exhibition is to reflect upon the current status and the shifts in art and society and to give artists in Berlin a platform to present their work.
