Atelierhaus Prenzlauer Promenade | Benefiz-Kunstauktion
BenefizKunstauktion des Atelierhauses Prenzlauer Promenade zur Gründung eines Fonds für die visionäre Projektentwicklung
Unser Protest für den Erhalt des Atelierhauses in der Prenzlauer Promenade und die große Aufmerksamkeit und Sympathie die uns 2014 zu Teil wurde, haben etwas bewirkt. Der Senat prüft zur Zeit, ob das ca. 20.000 qm große Areal als Standort für ein zukunftsweisendes Modell aus studentischem Wohnen, Kindertagesstätte und Künstlerateliers dienen kann. Wir begrüßen diese Entwicklung und hoffen, dass das Moratorium und die Zeit des Nachdenkens in ein echtes Umdenken münden. Wir, die Künstler des Atelierhauses im Plattenbaustil, das von uns liebevoll „Gemischte Platte“ und visionär „Kunstmaschine“ genannt wird, möchten die Chance, die sich momentan abzeichnet, nutzen und uns konstruktiv in die Debatte über die Zukunft des Areals einbringen.
