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.
This roundup reflects Berlin's continued status as a decentralized hub for contemporary art, where institutional shows coexist with grassroots community awards. The inclusion of site-specific installations and multi-disciplinary projects—such as Gabriella Hirst’s whale-inspired sculptures at KINDL and choral festivals at the Humboldt Forum—demonstrates the city's commitment to immersive, research-based, and socially engaged artistic practices.
