Dear members, dear friends of art,
the Kunstverein Tiergarten is pleased to be able to offer you two new annual editions as well as the editions of previous years.
In times of dramatic budget cuts in the art and culture sector, art associations and artists are more dependent than ever on support. And what could be better than being able to enjoy this support at home in the long term or to give it to your loved ones as a gift, for example in the form of a ceramic object or a colour drawing?
Since 2011, we have been offering outstanding quality art at affordable prices with our ‘Edition Nord’ annual editions. The high-quality graphics, photos, or objects in small editions as well as unique pieces come from selected artists who are active in the Kunstverein Tiergarten or have participated in exhibitions at Galerie Nord.
Every purchase of an annual edition supports both the charitable work of the Kunstverein and the work of the artists themselves.
From Wednesday 6 December, the new editions will be presented in the Kabinett of Galerie Nord | Kunstverein Tiergarten. Editions from 2011-2023 can be found here.

Minh Duc Pham
Miss Recollection
Glazed ceramic sculpture, 16 x 12 x 8 cm, 2024, 10 pairs, 7+3 AP
Price: 450 €
In his artistic practice, Minh Duc Pham examines the unresolved issues in the (post-)migrant memory of GDR history against the background of his German-Vietnamese identity and queerness.
For the annual edition, Pham created orchid blossoms in his Miss Recollection series, individually handcrafted in ceramic with four layers of white high-gloss glaze that hold the subtle pair of blossoms together. The sensual encounter between the fossilised petals and pistils of the pair of orchids unfolds in the interplay of concave and convex shapes. Their origin, their shape and their sexual polyvalence thus open up an associative space of diversity.
Minh Duc Pham is a visual artist and performer. He studied exhibition design and scenography at the Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design, while also studying time-based performance and design theory at the Berlin University of the Arts. His works have been shown at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt, the Museum für bildende Künste Leipzig, HAU Hebbel am Ufer, the Hanoi Women’s Museum, the Cloud Gate Theatre Taipei and the Kunsthaus Dresden, among others.

Doris Hinzen-Röhrig
Kippmomente 1–6
Mixed media (collage, pigments, coloured pencil, pencil) on laser print on Bristol board, 27 x 37 cm, 2024, 6 unique pieces, signed
Price: 480 € (with wooden frame incl. passe-partout and museum glass (40×50 cm): 550 €)
With its references to ecological issues, the Kippmomente series takes up a recurring motif in the works of Doris Hinzen-Röhrig. In mixed media on paper, the artist reacts to six identical images of a piece of concrete that was used to repair a Berlin pavement and whose cracks are encrusted with moss. Distorted through the use of collage, pigments, colour, and pencil, a miniature piece of reflection on nature-culture relationships on a local and global level is created. The associations range from the sealing of urban soils to climate change and knowledge about mosses, which are considered the oldest land plants and, due to their resilience, were among the first plants to revitalise deserted soils. In the seemingly archaic interplay between different forces, Hinzen-Röhrig also finds tipping points towards the open, contemplative and cheerful.
Doris Hinzen-Röhrig studied in Saarbrücken under ZERO member Oskar Holweck, among others, and her paintings, drawings and mixed-media works are represented internationally in numerous exhibitions and collections.
