From June 8 until July 24, 2011, KW Institute for Contemporary Art is one of the venues of Based in Berlin.

The exhibition will show works by some 80 artists who live and work in Berlin. It will cover the full range of contemporary art practices, from painting and drawing to sculpture, photography, film and video, text and performances to installations. A comprehensive programme of events featuring screenings, performances, live acts, workshops and debates will form an essential part of the exhibition. "We want to create a spatial and temporal concentration – to condense the many artistic activities and make them accessible to a wide audience," say the curators. 

Based in Berlin is an exhibition of contemporary art in Berlin at the Atelierhaus Monbijoupark and will extent into KW Institute for Contemporary Art, the Nationalgalerie im Hamburger Bahnhof – Museum für Gegenwart – Berlin, the Neuer Berliner Kunstverein n.b.k., and the Berlinischen Galerie – Landesmuseum für Moderne Kunst, Fotografie und Architektur  – organized by Kulturprojekte Berlin GmbH.

Curated by Angelique Campens, Fredi Fischli, Magdalena Magiera, Jakob Schillinger and Scott Cameron Weaver.
