A tour through the streets into the past of KW. In the early 1990s, KW Institute for Contemporary Art was founded in a former margarine factory. The Institution's history is inseparably linked to that of its neighborhood, the surrounding streets and its buildings. To understand KW’s historical entanglements, we embark on a walking tour of boarded-up buildings, underground garages, distant domes over burial chambers, communist clubhouses, and the courtyard of a collector who lives in a former nationalized factory. A view of a distant skyscraper overshadowing Soviet-era relics on Alexanderplatz marks the end of our tour of KW’s neighboring streets.
Meeting point: KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Meeting Point in the Courtyard
