Timeline

Project Birkenstrasse

"These days, surely, it was in these crowded places where thousands of individual itineraries converged for a moment, unaware of one another, that here survived something of the uncertain charm of waste lands, the yards and building sites, the station platforms and waiting rooms where travellers break step, of all the chance meeting places where fugitive feelings occur of the possibility of continuing adventure, the feeling that all there is to do is to see ‚what happens‘.“ (Marc Augé: Non-Places)

Projekt Birkenstrasse is an artistic engagement with the U-Bhf Birkenstrasse in Berlin-Moabit. 

From September to October, various artists* created artistic works in and around the Birkenstrasse underground station. All works created in connection with the project will now be exhibited at ZK/U and U-Birkenstrasse.
