ABOUT GBB
The Galerie Berlin-Baku was founded as a partner gallery of QGallery from Baku, Azerbaijan in 2007.
Our focus is on the exchange between Azerbaijan and Germany, and certainly many of the artists come from one of these two countries, but not all; because aesthetic creativity does not stop at national borders. On the contrary, it connects people besides all sorts of obstacles, it not only abolish political boundaries or making them at least translucent, but also cultural and economic.
Thus, our gallery has opened up with the presentation of paintings, sculptures, photographs and performances of various artists of different countries.
Focus of our work lies in the field of Fine Arts, particularly contemporary art, but in the broadest possible sense. But our activities go beyond art, we also offer literary evenings and film screenings, as well as artist-student exchange programs, e.g. since

2008 together with the German Embassy in Baku, the Academy of Arts in Baku and our partner gallery QGallery we invite every year three students of the Academy of Arts from Azerbaijan to Berlin in order to give them the opportunity to get inspired of Berlin, its museums, studios and galleries. Conversely, Berlin-based artists visit Baku and pass on their skills and knowledge to master classes’ students in courses at the Academy of Arts in Baku.
The artistic expression and reception of art works, independent of time and space, belongs to the basic needs of mankind. Therefore, in or opinion, the exchange of artwork and the dialogue of people engaged in the culture sector are an excellent means of international understanding, the consolidation of peace, mutual recognition and interpersonal community.
