Make sure to check before going what kind of artist are they exhibiting to see if they match your interest. The space is very nice and their yard and best place to sit and digest all the artsy stuff ❤️

Visited KW for the Berlin Biennale—beautiful venue, thoughtful curation, and a standout stop in the city’s art scene. The staff were genuinely kind and friendly which made the experience even better. Definitely one of my favorite biennale locations… not your usual busy crowded art exhibits. Such a wonderful building to explore. More art notes via @rosieding_ 🎨

everyone recommended kw institute so much that my expectations went sky high. and i did end up a bit disappointed. the exhibitions across the different levels felt uneven - some really worth it, others not so much. but i still appreciate the place, it has presence and i can see why it’s on everyone’s list. just not the kind of knockout i was hoping for.

Such a cool museum in a cool area in Berlin. Very contemporary exhibitions are on. The entrance is very nature friendly, almost feels like entering a magical small garden hidden somewhere lol. Seems like the museum is concentrating on modern installation, video arts and photography.

Huge space which hosted contemporary art. They have nice yard and cafe in it. Few floors, interesting design. Dirty toilets as art object to make u feel bad, don’t know if it’s okay for them, but it’s fact.
