Forming Communities shows examples of the connections between artists from China, across Asia, and other parts of the world who are internationally active and based in Berlin. The result is a picture of an artistic landscape of diversity around a group of artists from Asia, which conveys the closeness and distance of the people involved on all semantic and sociological levels. The exhibition works with formats of invitation and networking; this includes regular meetings with the participating artists during the exhibition, which are open to all visitors.
