about us
Open Gallery Berlin is an online art gallery. It was initiated in the summer of 2020 in Berlin, when the whole world was overwhelmed by the coronavirus pandemic. Its purpose is to create a space for artists to show their work when venues are closed, as well as for art lovers to enjoy art while staying at home. We regularly curate open calls and invite artists around the world to show their works.
In 2021 we will begin with two exhibitions:
Fernweh/ Wanderlust 15.01.2021 - 14.04.2021
Heimweh/ Homesickness 15.04.2021 - 14.07.2021
Apart from being an online gallery, the Open Gallery Berlin cooperates with physical spaces such as art venues, galleries and museums. You can get an impression of our previous events here.
We plan to present additional solo shows later this year and we would like to invite you to join our upcoming Collector's Club.
