Inspired in an intuitive and visceral way by weeds, Louder, Taller, Uglier, Weirder – Learning from Weeds / Von Unkraut lernen is a curatorial project composed of events that we call sprouts and exhibitions that unfold with different, perhaps irregular, rhythms.
Spanning nearly a year, the project begins at Xanadu in Neukölln, before opening its first exhibition at Kunstraum Kreuzberg/Bethanien in autumn 2025. From this initial moment, many more sprouts will appear across the city, along with three more exhibitions at Galerie im Turm in Friedrichshain, Bärenzwinger in Mitte and Galerie im Körnerpark in Neukölln.
We start with a direction to follow and the curiosity to discover what grows next: how and where will the weeds that give life to this project take root? Sometimes they remain close to the plant world, at other times they extend far beyond it—turning weeds into a shared spirit that resists taming.
