The Temporare Kunsthalle Berlin Gallery
The Palast der Republik — the former of East German parliament building has left a gaping hole on Schlossplatz, a square on eastern Berlin’s main thoroughfare, Unter den Linden. Just near by is the blue-and-white prefab building that’s taken up residence for a two-year stint. Since it opened in late October, the Temporäre Kunsthalle Berlin (or Temporary Art Hall Berlin) has a purpose of showcasing locally based artists. Currently included on the outside of the container-like structure is “Clouds†by Gerwald Rockenschaub, an Austrian artist. The outer facade of the Temporäre Kunsthalle Berlin Gallery has two abstract white clouds on a bright blue background and the cubic formations that refer to the design’s digital origin and remind us, in their universal legibility, of computer icons. Gerwald Rockenschaub project’s temporal nature and the principle of transience is the foundation for creating something new.
