Just in time for the 10th anniversary of the Berlin Art Forum and the Kunstherbst Berlin (Berlin Autumn Art Program), Imke Ehlers and Angela Hohmann are launching their guide to the art galleries of Berlin. 70 of the most important galleries specialising in contemporary art are presented. The book contains gallery profiles and histories, biographies of the gallery curators, including their artists, galleries, main interests as well as their links to art fairs and general position in the art world. With their feel for artistic talent and the courage to search out and support new artists in the market, these galleries and their exhibitions make Berlin one of the most important forums for contemporary art in the world. The city is already the world's largest center for the creation and presentation of contemporary art. Over the past ten years, Berlin has become the city with the largest number of active artists and boasts, alongside New York, the highest concentration of art galleries anywhere. Well over 300 galleries have moved to Berlin, among them many dedicated specifically to contemporary fine art. The purpose of this gallery guide is to present the cultural landscape of contemporary art in Berlin and the galleries that represent it. The Gallery Guide is intended for the specialized audience of curators and collectors, as well as those generally interested in art and those who visit Berlin and discover art in the city, who then become enraptured with it, and who ultimately become collectors of contemporary fine art.
