Gropius Bau

Located in the centre of Berlin, Gropius Bau is a lively place to encounter art and each other. The internationally renowned institution is part of the Berliner Festspiele and stages large-scale exhibitions and performances by contemporary artists, offering new perspectives on our present. Its diverse events focus on exchange, bringing together local and global positions.

Here, artists are at the centre: they not only present their own work, but also develop projects for the institution and, in some cases, work for extended periods of time in one of the building’s on-site studios. By inviting artists to shape programme and place equally, Gropius Bau proposes a new model for institutions in the 21st century.
