Group exhibition
Projections Onto the East
Helmar Lerski, Maria Lisogorskaya, Xavier Robles de Medina, Maya Schweizer, Andrzej Steinbach and Gabriele Stötzer
Sep 10 – Dec 20, 2026 Mitte
One half of a two-venue group show on the “East” as a screen for Western projections, from GDR memory politics to post-socialist change.
The Schinkel Pavillon shows Helmar Lerski’s 1930s and 1940s photographs of hands and faces from Palestine and of Jewish soldiers, Gabriele Stötzer’s everyday objects from the 1990s, Andrzej Steinbach’s photographs and new work by Maria Lisogorskaya, alongside Xavier Robles de Medina and Maya Schweizer. The project asks how the split between “East” and “West” still shapes the present, touching on antisemitism and current geopolitics.
The second part, with Hito Steyerl, KwieKulik and others, is at the n.b.k. until Nov 8. Conceived by Fabian Bechtle and Leon Kahane.
