War

A huge, splintered, rust-coloured sculpture dominates the war-themed space in the BERLIN GLOBAL exhibition. Thick black lines stretch out from it like cracks across the floor. Like a huge wedge, this foreign body seems to break into the ground, evoking the destructive power of bombs and grenades. But it can also be understood as a symbol of the scattering of people and things through war and flight.

This is what awaits you:

  • Installation SORRYFORNOTHING
  • Interview project “People on the run”
  • Biographies of people caught in and fleeing from wars
  • Wars in the 20th century

All about War

  • Sharmin’s Note

    A photo of “Sharmin’s Note” hangs in the room “War” at BERLIN GLOBAL. The object is part of an interview project on the topic of flight. We present it in the series “Favourite Object”.

  • Für eine Überraschung gut: die begehbare Diskokugel im Raum Vergnügen.
