A selection of Berlin’s most celebrated artists display their work on 14 ft high pillars on the streets of Central Berlin.
Riding high on the success of last year’s Berlin project, Art Below are pleased to announce the 3rd installment of Pillar of Art. In a variation on last year’s theme, 2010’s Pillar of Art will exclusively showcase work from artists living and working in Berlin. This June, the Prenzlauer Berg and Mitte districts - Berlin’s cultural hub - will play host to the latest colloboration from art entrepeneurs Art Below & Art Barter. Kicking off with Art Barter’s exclusive Alexanderplatz launch party, followed by Art Below’s week long exhibition on 10 public pillars displaying Berlin’s hottest established and emerging artists. Over the last 5 years Art Below have displayed the works of over 800 international artists, seen by tens of millions as they travel, and are proud to play host to a fantastic range of highly acclaimed creatives. What started as a London based initiative soon received overwhelming international interest enabling Art Below to establish themselves in both Europe and Tokyo. Developing a soft spot for Berlin’s refreshingly street-level arts culture, Art Below are pleased to be returning again - this time in creative co-horts with London’s latest arts venture Art Barter.
