A Review! Yesterday I belonged to the lucky ones who took a first exclusive look at the Urban Nation´s 1st Biennale! The Biennale is a must-go event for all Berliners and those who like urban art. A masterpiece! Unfortunately the Biennale is only open for 2 days this weekend! I hope that the curator Yasha Young gets more time at the next Biennale to show her incredible work.
WHAT IF… ?
From 13 to 15 September 2019, Bülowstrasse in front of the URBAN NATION MUSEUM FOR URBAN CONTEMPORARY ART will become a time capsule – from its origins to the distant future of cities. Under the curatorial direction of Yasha Young and the title ROBOTS AND RELICS: UN-MANNED, 25 renowned artists are working together to create a unique art district over 100 meters long.

WHAT IF WE FINALLY REALIZE WITH A VIEW TO THE PAST WHAT TIME HAS LONG BEEN READY FOR?
Cleared rainforests, oceans full of plastic, bursting icebergs – it is us who are exploiting the earth. And it is only us who can finally change our minds and act differently. Before it is too late. Not only since today we are losing our livelihood on this planet, although everyone can make his contribution. Immediately. So that we have a future at all. More than 20 international artists share visions of this future in the first edition of the URBAN NATION BIENNALE.
