Großgörschen 35

In May 1964, 15 young painters joined forces and rented the premises of a former textile factory in Berlin-Schöneberg, as they lacked adequate exhibition venues. So the former fellow students of the then Berlin University of the Arts decided to take matters into their own hands and, out of this economic plight, founded an exhibition community with great ambitions that lasted until 1968. The name of the community was derived from Großgörschenstraße 35. Großgörschen 35 was therefore not an artists' group in the programmatic sense, but the artists were united by a rejection of pure abstraction and a turn towards a new figurative art.
