Kunstmatrix creates virtual space for the KUNSTHERBST Berlin 2010 für Kids

The exhibition platform “Kunstmatrix” acts as a partner in the second “KUNSTHERBST Berlin für Kids”.

This art festival will take place from September 27 to October 2, 2010 in numerous places of Berlin's art world, focusing on the topic of “Nature in the Fine Arts“.

The innovative three-dimensional exhibition rooms of the Kunstmatrix allow for an interactive participation in the event via the Internet.

This art education festival will be organized by the Institute for Arts and Media Management of Freie Universität Berlin. It will give pupils and students from Berlin and Brandenburg the opportunity to explore the world of contemporary arts in art tours and workshops, accompanied by artists, collectors, dealers and curators.

For all participants of “KUNSTHERBST Berlin für Kids”, the Berlin-based company will design a three-dimensional two-story exhibition building providing about 5400m² of virtual presentation space. In these rooms, the interested public can keep track of the results of all the artistic works of the week. The festival's highlight will be the final presentation on October 2 at the Stiftung Starke, where a joint virtual exhibition will be staged live as well as online.

Dagmar Boeck, Managing Director of the Institute for Arts and Media Management: “In cooperation with our partners, we want to make a concrete contribution to aesthetic education, creativity and the communication of art. Working with the Kunstmatrix gives us innovative possibilities for the use of media in the communication of art.“

Hartwig Bentele, Kunstmatrix manager: “For us, KUNSTHERBST Berlin for Kids is an ideal platform to present the many possibilities of the Kunstmatrix to the art-interested public. We are looking forward to this partnership and cooperation.”
