As artists from different countries flock to the new capital of re-unified Germany, its major museums are undergoing a massive renovation while grant programs and inexpensive studio space are giving new talent the chance to create and display their art. Published in conjunction with a major exhibition at the Phoenix Museum of Art, this catalog is the first comprehensive survey of the artistic renaissance of post-wall Berlin. Many of the works—which include paintings, sculpture, photography, film, installation, sound and performance art—were completed in this century. In addition to color illustrations of each of the works, his volume includes essays on the Berlin art scene, the city’s recent architecture, and what the future may hold for this exciting nexus of creativity.
