Berlin World Tour 09

Posted on 21 May 2009 by DJ Ansom

Berlin’s main museum for contemporary art opened in the former railway station of Hamburger Bahnhof in November 1996, giving the National Gallery its first permanent home for its collection of contemporary art. My brother Cyp organised me a gig to DJ there, that was probably the most random greatest place i ever spun. This place is so unique and germans are interesting.

This hamburger joint is not any kinda fast food joint.

The museum stands out from afar, noticeable by its blue neon tubes of light placed along the building’s facade. The architecture is quintessentially ‘Berlin’: a combination of past and present at play with one another. The glass roofs and geometric designs make the museum a fascinating place to enjoy modern, pop and contemporary art.

It was really an honor for me to spin there even if once again i couln’t get serato or technics or too many germoz to dance.

The 10,000 square meter area is dedicated to art from the second half of the 20th century onwards. The collection contains works from National Museums in Berlin as well as many works belonging to the Berlin based private collection.
