The Wall - The asisi Panorama of a Devided City

daily 10a.m. - 6p.m.

Yadegar Asisi’s Panorama of divided Berlin portrays an artistically compacted view of the days of the Cold War. Presented here is everyday life set against the backdrop of the Berlin Wall, on a fictitious autumn day in the 1980’s. The Panorama shows how banal the everyday normality of the divided city was, yet at the same time tinged with a subtle cruelty. Key themes are the ability of the people to adapt to conditions which were far from ideal, as a strategy for survival.

Martin Kippenberger: sehr gut | very good

Tue, Wed, Fri 10a.m.-6p.m.;Thu 10a.m.-20p.m.;Sat-Sun 11a.m.-6p.m.

In 2013 Martin Kippenberger would have celebrated his 60th birthday - that is, had he not died in 1997 due to an excessive life. At several places in the building, the Hamburger Bahnhof currently exhibits an artist whose work and life cannot be separated from one another - a painter, an actor, a writer, a musician, a drunkard, a dancer, a traveller, a charmer, an enfant terrible and self-producer - in short, an "exhibitionist" as he called himself and an artist who today is considered one of the most significant of his generation. The permeation of personality and oeuvre, as well as the incredible variety of his artistic production, is now presented in its entire spectrum. "Martin Kippenberger: sehr gut | very good" however does not intend to be a retrospective, but rather an approximation of both the private and public persona of the artist Martin Kippenberger.
