Memory Is a Strange Bell

Neuer Berliner Kunstverein (n.b.k.) and Künstlerhaus Bethanien jointly present works by the recipients of the Berlin Senate’s 2025 visual arts work stipend. Taking place in parallel at both institutions, the exhibition brings together international artists living and working in Berlin. It highlights the central importance of stable funding structures for the production and presentation of contemporary art. The works on view address social, political, and historical questions and critically reflect on power relations, norms, and ideologies across a wide range of aesthetic practices.
 
A project by Neuer Berliner Kunstverein (n.b.k.) in cooperation with Künstlerhaus Bethanien.
The exhibition is supported by the Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Social Cohesion.
