ROHKUNSTBAU 31 — “The Art of Transgression”

The nearly five-month duration allows visitors to experience the exhibition between summer and autumn—and potentially visit multiple times to allow individual works to resonate. The themes are current: How do we transgress societal boundaries (migration, identity)? How do AI and digital worlds change our self-perception? How do artists push the boundaries of their practice?

The opening on June 13, 2026, starting at 3:30 PM, is a must-attend event for the German-speaking art scene—opening reception talks, meeting artists, followed by the exhibition viewing. Those traveling from Berlin or Cottbus often combine the vernissage with a weekend in the Lausitz region: Spreewald tours, Senftenberg Lake, Cottbus.
