One hundred years after Herwarth Walden’s first and last German Herbstsalon (autumn salon) in 1913, Shermin Langhoff began her tenure as artistic director of the Maxim Gorki Theatre with the 1st Berliner Herbstsalon in 2013. Now she’s launching her final season at the Gorki with the 7th Berliner Herbstsalon. For her farewell, she has invited both long-term collaborators and new artists to the Berliner Herbstsalon. They will use old and new works to, in light of the present, reflect on, reclassify and (re)imagine for the future the critical art practices, struggles and resistances which were negotiated over this period. The Herbstsalon begins with the opening of the exhibition located throughout the Gorki, in the Palais am Festungsgraben, the Gorki Kiosk and outdoor spaces.
With artistic works from Nevin Aladağ, Züli Aladağ, bankleer, Mehtap Baydu, Miraz Bezar, Cana BilirMeier, Zühal Bilir-Meier, Luchezar Boyadjiev, Timur Çelik, Danica Dakić, Silvina Der Meguerditchian, Nihan Devecioğlu, Zehra Doğan, Can Dündar, Ahu Dural, Atom Egoyan, Semra Ertan, Harun Farocki & Antje Ehmann, Eleftheria Gerofoka, Marta Górnicka, Manaf Halbouni, Imaginary Collective, Hiwa K, Gülsün Karamustafa, Miro Kaygalak, Piruza Khalapyan, Rola Khayyat, Daniel Knorr, Davit Kochunts, Omer Krieger, Shermin Langhoff & Ensemble, Damian Le Bas, Damian James Le Bas, Delaine Le Bas, Jazgul Madazimova, Maria Paula Maldonado, Khoren Matevosyan, Astghik Melkonyan, Hakan Savaş Mican, Karen Mirzoyan, Ersan Mondtag, Lousineh Navasartian, Emine Sevgi Özdamar, Sasapin Siriwanij, Ülkü Süngün, Filiz Taşkın, Hale Tenger, Nasan Tur, Melek Konukman-Tulgan, Laura Uribe & Sabina Aldana, Serpil Yeter, Zentrum für Politische Schönheit, Želimir Žilnik und many others.
