In this guided tour, Daniela Medina Poch, Project Assistant for Kerstin Brätsch’s BAUBAU: Play Space for Kids, offers insights into the process of creating a play space for children at Gropius Bau.

With BAUBAU, the artist Kerstin Brätsch designed an admission-free play space for kids, where more is allowed than forbidden. Created as a flexible environment, BAUBAU is constantly shaped by children’s activities. BAUBAU is a permanent feature of Gropius Bau and spans several rooms on the ground floor. It is inspired by The Model – an adventure playground installed at Stockholm’s Moderna Museet in 1968, which was devised by the artist and activist Palle Nielsen and the journalist and activist Gunilla Lundahl. Following the principles of adventure playgrounds, the everyday rules of art institutions don’t apply here: children have free reign, transforming the place into a space of endless possibilities.
