THE KNOT project begins on 29 April 2010 at the Berlin Kulturforum next to Potsdamer Platz. On 3 May the vehicle encamps at Mariannenplatz in Kreuzberg to move later to the grounds of the former Tempelhof airport, where it stays from May 17 to 30 May 2010.
Places / Venues
Kulturforum
The Kulturforum, which in the 1970s witnessed the beginning of realisation of highly controversial plans for Berlin’s artistic and cultural centre (National Library, complex of National Art Galleries, among others) will change overnight into a space of active entertainment, intellectual debate and artistic production – all thanks to THE KNOT.
Mariannenplatz
THE KNOT’s second stop is located at the heart of densely populated Kreuzberg – at Mariannenplatz – where our residents and guests will take further artistic and discursive action as well as attempt to enter the local urban tissue.
Tempelhof Airfield
THE KNOTS final destination in Berlin are the premises of the former Tempelhof airport, subject to ongoing debates and disputes concerning the redevelopment mode for closed down buildings and urban wastelands.
