Berlin’s spring art season features a diverse array of exhibitions ranging from established international names to local prize winners. Key highlights include Yalda Afsah’s spiritual film installation at CCA Berlin, Jim Lambie’s psychedelic vinyl floor works at Konrad Fischer Galerie, and the 10th Neukölln Art Prize exhibition at Galerie im Saalbau, which honors artists like Va-Bene Elikem Fiatsi. The city's programming spans non-profit institutions, commercial galleries, and experimental spaces, covering themes from folk traditions to gender identity.
Yalda Afsah presents her first exhibition in Denmark, titled "Surge," at Kunsthal Thy. The show features two video works: "Curro" (2023), which explores human relationships with animals, and "Jarramplas" (2025), which initiates a new series centered on rituals and communal social dynamics.
