Shared.Divided.United

This week I came across the exhibition Shared.Divided.United, Germany - Korea: Migration Movements during the Cold War. It's an exhibition under the auspices of the NGBK at three Exhibition Locations (@ NGBK, Oranienstr. 25, Berlin; @GfKFB, Am Flutgraben 3, 12435 Berlin; @ Border Watch-Tower Schlesischer Busch opposite the studio building on the Flutgraben, 12435 Berlin). Unfortunately I only had the chance to see the exhibition at NGBK. Germany and Korea are linked together by the "divided and shared history" which unites them. The two countries were both front-line states in the Cold War - and are at the same time both marked by a history of division. The exhibition puts on display works by 15 contemporary artists and artits's group from Germany and Korea. Focus of the exhibition is the migration movements that took place between Germany and Korea. The exhibition is on view till 15 November 2009, daily 12-19 hrs, Thurs-Sats 12-20 hrs and is for free! by us
