“Only a global pandemic could make me miss Gallery Weekend Berlin, my annual tour d’horizon of the city whose art scene remains most resolutely driven by its artists.

*The 12 exhibitions that I spotlighted include living legends (Markus Lüpertz), long-time personal favorites (Candice Breitz, Walid Raad and Yuji Agematsu) and new discoveries (Stella Zhong, Jiyoon Chung, Shinoh Nam and Nida Sinnokrot).

Beyond the official program Berlin showed its vast range with everything from the newest, bravest Boros Bunker hang, the atmospheric Berghain Halle show curated by David Douard and the Jochen Klein tribute at Wolfgang Tillmans’ Between Bridges space.”
