Kunst Raum Mitte

Kunst Raum Mitte is a municipal exhibition space managed by the Department of Art, Culture and History within the Mitte district office. Since 1987, it has allowed contemporary artists the opportunity to present their work to urban society, initially as part of the former galerie weisser elefant in East Berlin and later in the reunified city.

In 2024, the galerie weisser elefant was renamed Kunst Raum Mitte by the Department of Art, Culture and History. The new name is intended to further broaden the gallery’s concept to engage with contemporary discourse and the art of a subsequent generation, while also linking it to current debates about a pluralistic and diverse urban society.
