Letzte Woche hat das erste @wunderbartogetherpodcast Dinner in New York im @neuehouse stattgefunden. Nach vier Jahren remote-Aufnahmen wurde es auch Zeit. Was für ein toller Abend mit neuen und alten Gästen.
Großen Dank an @yoram_roth , der es möglich gemacht hat, unsere Community zusammenzubringen. Weitere Dinner werden folgen.
It is a joy to celebrate a ten year anniversary for a company (a brand? a group of people? a community?) that has just found its stride and pace.
Come join us as we take on the next ten years. Lots of new opportunities, new cities, and new members joining.
@neuehouse , I’m very proud of what we are becoming!
It’s done. Fotografiska Berlin is open.
I will gather my thoughts in an essay over the next two weeks, but right now it’s just time to bask in the afterglow… and to get over to the bakery before my cardamom kruller is sold out.
Our executive chairman held a brilliant speech last night, touching upon the role of our @fotografiska.berlin as a contemporary museum of photography, art and culture.
We‘re getting the question often: „Are you even a real museum?“. Yes, we are. Because we serve the audience and the artist in many ways „real“ museums don’t.
It’s true that we don’t collect works and we don’t conserve, but perhaps that’s not of primary importance in photography and visual culture.
Instead we focus on three aspects of being a museum:
1. Being inclusive and accessible (open late until 11pm every day, barrier free architecture, exhibition texts in 5 languages, focus on highest visitor experience quality, recruitment of an inclusive and diverse team),
2. Educate on important discourses (in a non-elitist, experiential way, inspiring new perspectives, but also fostering artist education through cooperation with other institutions),
3. Putting the artists and their work over the institution (supporting artists in all career stages, cooperating with other museums in our network, treating the heritage of previous artist-communities in our building respectfully and responsibly)
Thanks to @yoram_roth who has done so much for the cultural landscape here in Berlin and together with art world pioneers such as @paulinebenthede@elinfrendberg@bgfm71@wrightsophie@marinapaulenka@thomasfriedrichschaefer , we have the honor to showcase, what a contemporary museum such as @fotografiska is contributing.
Opening Sept 15, 2023 in Berlin and open late every day.

Thank you, friends and colleagues, who came to my Chairman’s Preview. For those of you who stood by my side to help make this a reality over the last six years.
The other hard work starts now, to fill this house with photography, art, and culture, but also love and respect.
Fotografiska belongs to Berlin and it’s forward-thinking people.
See you there next week, we are open to the public as of Friday the 15th of September
Really…it’s Gay Pride in Berlin. Best I can do is be an Ally..
The arch of history bends toward the progressive. We are who we are. Love yourself, and love your community. Help everyone live their life.
See you soon!
Looking up, looking forward. A lot of hard work but we are getting there… and I don’t just mean Fotografiska Berlin. It’s been a tough nine months, but the teams at both @fotografiska and @neuehouse have worked hard to make things right. Onward!
Thanks for the great shots @enums , and capturing that Chairman vibe
