Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

The recent restrictions caused by the pandemic save us extensive explanations as to why we are realizing the SUPP_ORT exhibition. It is very paradoxical that in this situation, in which we need a lot of attention, we can only invite to a very limited extent. We ask for your understanding for the following measures.


1. Only very few visitors can be present in the project gallery at the same time.

2. In bad weather: We are supported by the “Valentin Stüberl” pub. The "Stüberl" is only 90 meters away and has new, modern ventilation systems. Nevertheless, only a few people can be there at the same time. The DJ Michele d´Alessio provides pleasant entertainment.

3. Please register, disinfectants are available.

4. Please also use the opportunity to make appointments.


What we have left is a demonstration with 64 artists about the diversity, international networking and the preservation of the project gallery with its 25-year history.


An online catalog with the presented works will appear on November 1st at:

February 1995, the project gallery opens its first rooms at Kastanienallee 86 in Berlin's Prenzlauer Berg district. Further locations in Potsdamer Strasse in Mitte and in Hufelandstrasse at Volkspark Friedrichshain followed until we were finally able to open our fourth room in 2019 in the Berlin district of Neukölln, near the town hall.
February 2020, Walden Art Exhibition opens “nothing but drawings vol.6 - architecture. We dreamed, now at the latest we are really taking off. After just one year, with the help of great artists, exciting projects and exhibitions, we established our new location in Neukölln. It's fast, but the dream is over! Extensive, long-term prepared projects had to be canceled, with the Corona emergency aid we fell through the grid. Why we, as one of the oldest project galleries in Germany, did not receive any basic funding, remains, beyond any personal concern, a secret of the Berlin Senate. (In 1996 zitty reported on relevant project rooms and only came up with six, of course we were there!). Nevertheless, with the projects MOMENTMAL (Leo de Munk), BOOMTOWN CRASH (including BEWEGUNG NURR and Christine Weber) and the media art series INFECTED REALITY, we have given contemporary answers to the pandemic.
