THE URBAN NATION MUSEUM FOR URBAN CONTEMPORARY ART OPENS IN BERLIN-SCHÖNEBERG ON 16 SEPTEMBER 2017
Since 2013 URBAN NATION, under the direction of Yasha Young, has been inviting international luminaries and aspiring talents of Urban Contemporary Art (UCA) to show their works within the urban fabric of Berlin: building façades, house walls and shop windows. On 16 September 2017 the URBAN NATION MUSEUM FOR URBAN CONTEMPORARY ART that will be unique worldwide opens its doors to the public. Under the motto “UNique. UNited. UNstoppable.” executive director Yasha Young and commercial director Dr. Christopher Vorwerk invite visitors to two-days of inauguration festivities. In addition to the exhibition in the museum, visitors can look forward to high-caliber installations outside the museum, too, which will form an open-air art gallery stretching from Nollendorfplatz to Frobenstrasse. The neighbourhood festival is being realized in co-operation with the housing company Gewobag.
