Exhibitions

The BAS CS gallery is part of the artists‘ association Kolony Wedding e.V., Berlin.
This is a non-commercial space where exhibitions and other creative events take place. Exhibitions open every last Friday of the month. Their duration is from several days to 3 weeks.

The main theme of the gallery is the idea of ​​Versus – the idea of ​​confrontation. In modern conditions, especially due to the pressure of the culture of denial and cancellation, it has become very difficult to express views and ideas that are different from the generally accepted ones.
Director and curator of the gallery I. Zaidel sees a positive task in maintaining a platform for creative workers, where there is an opportunity for self-expression without fear of getting a pseudo-moral slap in the face from the layman.
It is a place where East meets West, north meets south, conceptualism meets surrealism, and literature meets digital punk. Everyone has the right to speak and is also obliged to listen to the opinions of others.

The gallery stands on the principles of democratic pluralism, aesthetic multipolarity and cultural de-Eurocentrism.
Since 2019, BAS CS Gallery has organized 28 art exhibitions, 5 projects in other art spaces, 3 of them abroad and 2 social and cultural projects at the district level.
Here you can get acquainted with our exhibition activities.
