Hi,
I'm leaving to Berlin next week in order to explore the modern art scene. I'm all about modern art and art installations.
If anybody has any recommendations, areas to stay where the art is great, or knows any discount secrets for museums please tell.
Thanks in advanced and keep traveling.
I hope you plan to stay for a week or so :-)
Would you mind to share your definition of modern art with us? I already experienced very different interpretations of this naming.
I would say street art, art installations, light art. Paintings. Performance art. I love old school paintings as well.
There are a lot of galleries in Auguststrasse, which is just a short walk north of the Hackescher Markt S-Bahn station. Here is some information on it: https://www.visitberlin.de/en/arts-auguststrasse
There are several modern art museums in Berlin, but unfortunately a few of them are closed for renovations. Two that are still open are the Hamburger Bahnhof and the Berlinische Galerie. I'd encourage you to check out their websites to see if any of the special exhibitions are of interest.
In terms of public art, the most famous is probably the "molecule man" who stands in the Spree River. There is some more information here: https://berlinstreetart.com/public-art-berlin/ I haven't taken that company's tour, but it might be of interest. Have fun!
