Man, is Berlin such a great art market?


Peres to close LA gallery and open a second Berlin space

He plans to close his space located in the Culver City area of Los Angeles in the next two weeks. Peres currently operates another gallery in Berlin in the Kreuzburg district. A Dorothy Iannone show is currently on view in the L.A. gallery, closing 26 June. Peres represents Terence Koh, Dan Colen and Mark Titchner, among others. L.P.

berlin is a huge cultural capital. has a ton of contemporary art galleries. probably one of the finest gallery cities in europe.
the east side gallery is a huge section of the former berlin wall painted with something like 100 permanent pieces.

Ich finde das sehr erfreulich. Das letzte Mal, dass ich in Berlin war, war ich von verschiedenen Galerien sehr begeistert. Ich sammle Nikolai Makarov und interessiere mich fuer Boxi und EVOL. Sie alle sind Berliner.

Ich wuenschte mich, dass ich-- sowie JFK-- ein Berliner waere! Oder mindestens, dass ich eins zu essen haette!

LOL.

I love Berlin, and it is the closest city to Vienna with a vibrant art scene.
I have travelled there the past 4 years to see shows, and there was more going on every time, especially Friedrichshain and Mitte.

Merry Karnowsky has actually closed her Berlin gallery. The director, Gregory Teodori, has opened another space though called Two Window project.
