We are not a museum

Grimmuseum Berlin

The publication is a look back on three years of intensive and manifold production at the Grimmuseum. The publication contains a detailed and richly illustrated documentation of the numerous exhibitions, performances and sound installations in over 60 projects involving over 400 artists. Essays by Katerina Gregos, Jonathan Ahlm Brenander, Solvej Helweg Ovesen and Toke Lykkeberg complement the publication. The authors discuss questions about contemporary and curatorial issues and promote discourses in the context of the Grimmuseum. The essays cover topics such as the historical developement of artist-run spaces, a critical discussion of structures in museums, and a comment on the distinction of the art world in “commercial and non-commercial“ realms.
