Opening on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of April 8, International Roma Day, Yesterday is Tomorrow, is a group exhibition which explores how traditional craft practices re-emerge in contemporary art as sites of innovation, memory, and cultural resilience.

If art exists, most explicitly, in moments of crisis and catastrophe—as is attested by artists of the 13th Berlin Biennale and its Sister Organizations—what are its languages and preoccupations? What does it leave to us as viewers, spectators, audience, receivers, and is it what we expect, or can even understand fully in the present? In...

Forging and mending are ancestral practices among Roma artisans, where repair is both material and ontological. Lali Gabor’s coppersmithing intervention in the public sphere reclaims an urban space not through monumentality but through the intimate scale of the handmade. In the frame of the 13th edition of the Berlin Biennale, Lali Gabor is exhibiting Birdhouses,...

A bond of profound connection and heartfelt affection—this beautifully defines the relationship between these two artists. Turner Prize 2024 nominee Delaine Le Bas graced the opening of Nihad Nino Pušija: In Search of Eldorado – Roma and Sinti in the Struggle for Representation with a performance dedicated to her “brother, Nino”.
