Ortstermin 22

archive-single-event-detail.php

On August 26 at 6.30 pm, the Kunstverein Tiergarten will once again open the Moabit art festival Ortstermin 22 in front of the Galerie Nord, Turmstraße 75. From 26 to 28 August, visitors are invited to explore current interdisciplinary art and culture based on the topic »lieber laut«.

This year’s theme is “lieber laut,” and indeed: in this wide array of exhibitions, open studios, and events, artists enrich the program with their powerful voices.
A sound is both noise information and the smallest acoustic unit in language—it is a sensory perception, an auditory and physical phenomenon, and a metaphoric description. Art, music, and protest culture have used being loud as a means of expressing their resistance. Being loud means demanding attention and fighting for one’s rights—or shouting out in joy. How loud or quiet does art have to be to resonate?

Once again, this year’s festival is polyphonic and features a number of different formats for artistic production in Moabit and beyond the district’s borders. Artists and cultural workers will open up their workshops and studios, project rooms and galleries, cafés and bars. In addition, they’ll be offering curated exhibitions and events and inviting visitors to take part in workshops and concerts, calling upon them to actively participate in exploring the many dimensions of “loud” and “sound.”

We take great pleasure in offering visitors a diverse program able to strike up new sounds of cultural life in Moabit, and we’d like to thank all the tireless participating artists and cultural workers who have once again made the festival an exciting field for experimenting with new ideas.
