The exhibition will feature 12 artists:
The Berlin exhibition will focus on the issues and discourses surrounding contemporary migration, particularly migration to West Germany after World War 2 and the Gastarbeiter programme. The project began with research into the history of the Gastarbeiter at the Kreuzberg Museum Archive in Berlin. Margareta Kern and Denizhan Ozer will present new work made earlier in the year during artist's residencies in Berlin and funded through the British Council Germany. The artists will present a programme of talks, presentations, screenings and events at Kurt Kurt Project Space in a varied programme for local and wider audiences.
