Art Residencies

Je suis l’espace où je suis

I am the space where I am

Ich bin der Raum, in dem ich bin

The Berlin Office holds various functions as a space. It is first and foremost a shelter, providing artists with a domestic environment for the duration of their stay as a resident. It is also a studio, providing space for concepts and projects to be developed and realised. Taking the versatility of function in to consideration, I am the space where I am explores The Berlin Office as a temporary exhibition. The installed works will respond directly to the apartments architecture; examining how a site, with its history and context, resonates as a framework for a collection of artistic responses.

Each of the artists invited to exhibit have spent a duration of time in The Berlin Office; either as a visitor, invited by the long-term artist in residence, or as a resident themselves. Curator Victoria Lucas is the current long-term resident at The Berlin Office, and will be opening her studio up to the public alongside the exhibition, as well as creating site-responsive work for the show.
