MAP MoreArt Laboratory Berlin
ART LABORATORY BERLIN, a non-profit organisation, was founded in Autumn 2006 as Art Laboratory Berlin e.V, .by an international team of art historians and artists. As a non-commercial art space, ART LABORATORY BERLIN was established as a platform for projects concentrating on the border between visual arts and related artistic and scholarly fields. The main focus of interest is the exhibition and placement of contemporary visual art that interacts with other creative areas, which has already been realized in such exhibition series as "Art and Music", "Art and Text", "Art and Science" and "Art and Law". Each of these points of interaction is represented by a series of three or four diverse exhibitions. Our goal is to explore the manifold approaches of interaction and interconnection between these genres. Our current series Artists in Dialog features projects by two artists whose work shares a common theme, motif or artistic strategy. ART LABORATORY BERLIN is also interested in supporting contact between artists and the public as part of our exhibitions. To improve a better understanding of emerging and experimental art, we include public discussions with artists and curators. Additionally our program provides lectures, film screenings, curator's talks, and workshops. Currently ART LABORATORY BERLIN is run by Christian de Lutz and Regine Rapp.

ME COLLECTORS ROOM BERLIN / OLBRICHT FOUNDATION
ROOM FOR COLLECTORS + NEW PERSPECTIVES In a series of rotating exhibitions, we showcase the Olbricht Collection, containing works ranging from the early 16th century up to the present day. Selected curators are invited to give us their own perspective on the collection, whose driving focus draws on the core themes of human existence: life, love, eros, transience and death. A set fixture at our venue is the Wunderkammer (or ‘cabinet of art and marvels’), containing works from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. Besides works of art though, other collector’s items are on display, such as rare postage stamps, art nouveau objects and toys. In the café, shop and lounge, visitors can find room to exchange ideas, as well as reflect on and enjoy a sensual experience of art. In 2011 the theme of ‘collecting’ itself is also central to our programme. Besides discussions with international collectors (primarily, but not exclusively, of art), towards the end of the year we will also for the first time be holding reciprocal events with other private art collections. In autumn we will be hosting a show organized by the French collector Antoine de Galbert. At the same time, part of the Olbricht Collection is also on show in its exhibition venue in Paris, “la maison rouge”. May 2011 will see renewed cooperation with “la maison rouge” and the curator Jeanette Zwingenberger with the exhibition “Alles Kannibalen?” ROOM FOR EXCHANGE AND ENGAGEMENT The residential and exhibition building, situated in the immediate vicinity of the Kunst-Werke Berlin, was designed by the architectural firm Düttmann + Kleymann in conjunction with Thomas Olbricht. The generous 1.300 sq m exhibition space enables a division of the room, which invites both a direct engagement with the collection, as well as flexible open spaces for visitors. Behind the high glass façade there are a number of amenities, such as a Café, a Shop and a lounge area, spread across two floors. Ample space then for visitors to exchange ideas about the things they have seen.

N.K.
NK is an artist run independent non-profit organization that is dedicated to Sound Arts. This project entails a 5 year limited scope, our interest is not in becoming curators and or organizers but in taking part in the creation and support of a “culture”, with a focus on experimental music, which could be defined as unusual, strange, extreme and unique music that pushes against the boundaries or definitions of what is considered musical. To this end we organize public events that promote non-mainstream cultural production, and provide a platform for discussing paradigms in music and its problematics. As musicians working within this field we felt that there was a lack of spaces with a multi-faceted approach in Berlin. By Multifaceted we mean spaces that take into account not only the production of this kind of music but also the theoretical discourse that surrounds it. This kind of discourse takes place during workshops, artist presentations, and our weekly user meetings of Open Source Softwares such as SuperCollider and Pure Data where not only code but ideas and approaches are discussed. As a hybrid space, NK is a meeting point, that attempts to cover the gap between academic institutional spaces and the independent cultural agents of Berlin. We are open to proposals from event organizers and independent curators that fit our vision and expand it.
