KuBa: kulturbahnhof, Klein Warnow – A place of motion and emotion
a particular program for inspiration, dialogue & cooperation, open to the challenges of our time.
KuBa: kulturbahnhof is located on the site of a former train station in the town of Klein Warnow (Brandenburg), on the Berlin-Hamburg railrway. The residency program offers artists, writers and cultural scientists a place to work, create and experiment. The interaction with this unique location is an essential element of the project.
The artistic directors of KuBa: kulturbahnhof are Sharon Horodi and Cheb Mika Kammerer. The two are artists, active in the field of video, photography, performance-art and creative writing. Both have many years of experience in curating exhibitions and artistic events, community based art projects and transcultural exchange programs.
Vision:
Vision: A train station is a space comprised of motion and of emotions, arrivals and farewells, a place of joy and longing. Like art, the station forms the thin line between the private and public spheres. Our vision is to create within this space a place that inspires one’s own work, and invites artists to interact with one another and the place itself. KuBa – Art Residency is an artist initiative without public funding. It is still a young project that constantly develops with and by the visitors of the residency. We invite artists, writers, and persons engaged in other fields of the cultural sector to contribute to this process.
