I wish that politicians would realize how important funding structures are and how much these can shape an art scene – shape a city.The word “project space” is almost misleading to me. Projects do not have to take place in spaces. Radio shows, Instagram takeovers, and outdoor screenings are also projects. To focus on the aspect of space itself is to take a narrow view of what could – and is – happening in Berlin at the moment. The ideal project space would come with a budget for production and overhead costs. Ideally, also the curators ought to get paid.Wenn die Stadt verkauft ist, erübrigen sich alle weiteren Fragen.
