Based on Berlin´s image campaign slogan “Four of the best universities in Germany. Five, if you count the street,” students and teaching stuff of the Berlin University of the Arts present works that engage with the city in diverse ways. At the center lies the question of how the university and the urban environment influence one another, and what role artistic research plays in a constantly changing metropolis.

The exhibited artworks open up different perspectives and show how closely artistic practice, research, and urban life are intertwined. The collaboration between the State of Berlin, Berlin Partner, and the UdK Berlin makes this interplay visible and demonstrates how creativity and the city inspire one another.

The exhibition UdK x Berlin can be viewed from February 24^th – 26^th 2026, from 1–8 p.m. at Masumi Space, Kurfürstendamm 229, 10719 Berlin. Admission is free.
