_THE HAUS – Created to be destroyed

Dope, brilliant, fresh and bizarre art concepts from various artists in an abandoned bank building on one of Berlin’s most famous streets: the Kudamm. That’s the idea behind THE HAUS, the Berlin Art Bang, that is going to blow our minds from April 2017 - even that much that Berlins Senator of Culture and Europe, Dr. Klaus Lederer, took this project under his aegis. The uniqueness of THE HAUS isn’t in the simple fact of it’s existing, but the limitation. THE HAUS will be created to be destroyed. 

More than 100 local, national and international artists of different style directions gather to create a parallel universe in the center of Berlin’s commercial-heart. Every artist or crew gets one room that will then experience a metamorphosis. We’ve only one frame and one aim. The frame is the room. The aim is creating something that is so mind blowing, that viewers are forced to tell others about it.

In August 2017, the building is going to be demolished and THE HAUS, including every single artwork will disappear in mortality. Following the demolition of the building, the Cologne-based company is going to develop PANDION THE WEST with 75 condos and two retail units. Before this happens, all participating artists are invited to act as the final enemy of the old building and breathe life into it for the very last time. In the time between the finalization of THE HAUS and the demolition of the building, THE HAUS will be a temporary art gallery open for everybody who really wants to experience art and memorable moments. 

The artists bring the streets into the old bank, build sculptures, orchestrate video installations, create virtual realities, place projections or use photography or illustrations to express themselves and their ideas. All of this is going to be done for this one, unique and true moment that is will be burned into the visitor’s mind.

THE HAUS is a project initiated by DIE DIXONS, a Berlin based street art crew, who really know how to draw attention to messages. The gang is going to gather a collective of freethinkers, acting as the building’s final enemy, to spread one statement: It doesn’t matter who you are, what your name is or what you do, make time to create things on your own and use time to really experience created things before it’s too late.
