Asia Contemporary Art Platform NON Berlin
Asia contemporary art platform NON Berlin was founded in 2014, under the purpose of building an international network among artists, directors and alternative art spaces who work in the art scene in Asia and Berlin, Furthermore, NON Berlin’s goal is to become the hub for Culture and Arts exchange in Asia and Europe through organizing sustainable projects, mapping networks, creating archives and providing up-to-date information. By curating special exhibitions, forums, seminars, art performances and inter-media projects, NON Berlin aims for these activities to initiate a refreshing discourse different from those controlled by the market.
NON Berlin supports professional independent curators in Berlin and are open to those who are willing to express their creativity. In particular, NON Berlin aims to carry on research into Asia’s outlook on the world and it’s philosophical methodology, foreseeing from the contemporary point of view. NON Berlin also provides important and credible regional information from Europe and local networks to promote asian contemporary art in Europe with its base in one of the most artistic and culturally rich city, Berlin.
