Mission

KBB – Kulturveranstaltungen des Bundes in Berlin GmbH – takes on the challenge of making art and culture visible time and again, taking present and future demands into account. Together with our artistically independent venues – Berlinale, Berliner Festspiele including the Gropius Bau and Haus der Kulturen der Welt – we hold a wide variety of cultural events for large numbers of people throughout the year. We pool knowledge, develop synergies and create access to engage with the arts – whether visual arts, film, music, theatre or dance. 

Über die KBB I Geschichte

History

At the beginning of the 2000s, the federal government and the state of Berlin were faced with the task of reorganising structures and expanding Berlin’s international cultural significance. In this context, individual institutions became the responsibility of the federal government. 

Berlinale

The Berlin International Film Festival is a unique venue for artistic debate and entertainment. As one of the largest public film festivals in the world, the Berlinale attracts tens of thousands of visitors from all over the world to the city every year. 

Berliner Festspiele

The Berliner Festspiele organise various festivals and art exhibitions, concerts, dance and theatre performances, readings, lectures, discussions and much more throughout the year. In addition to its two own venues – Gropius Bau and Haus der Berliner Festspiele – the programme is presented at other locations and venues in Berlin.

Gropius Bau

Marking twenty years since artist, writer and performer Vaginal Davis made Berlin her home, Gropius Bau presents the first comprehensive solo exhibition of her work in Germany. In her expansive oeuvre, punk meets glamour, queer activism meets Black counter-culture and resistance meets desire.

Vaginal Davis: Fabelhaftes Produkt

In many languages, the word musafiri oscillates between the meanings of ‘traveller’ and ‘guest’ and thus touches on the question of who is welcome and who is not. The exhibition is dedicated to travellers, their stories, and encounters, and the worlds they open up. It bears witness to the necessity of a society in which travellers can arrive and be received as welcome guests.
