Bunker Berlin/Tel Aviv

Mariane Holberg, curator and historian, Berlin.

2018

BUNKER / מקלט brings into dialogue two wartime shelters in Berlin and Tel Aviv, tracing the unexpected convergence of their histories. Large-scale paintings of the Berlin bunker, a memorial light box, and a neon installation reproducing the original Rauchen verboten inscription shift fragments of one site into the other, allowing the two architectures to occupy a shared symbolic space.
