The Project Space Prize has not only saved many spaces and kept them alive for a longer period but basically generated a unique experimental and diverse art scene in Berlin. The Prize has also very much encouraged the founding of new spaces, fueled by the hope of receiving funding at some point. More than anything, it is an example of how much a certain public funding strategy can completely shape a local art scene.Wenn die Stadt verkauft ist, erübrigen sich alle weiteren Fragen.I wish that politicians would ­realize how important funding structures are and how much these can shape an art scene – shape a city.
