Room for improvisation, for formulating and expressing global change in urban hubs. The exhibition »New Commons – Lagos/Berlin« serves as a moment in time and space dedicated to the exchange between the two cities. It focuses on alternate forms of interaction between autonomous networks and their use of urban architecture as stages. Urban sites that are repurposed and function as hubs for the diaspora and other subcultures in both Lagos and Berlin.

With kind support of the Senate Department for Culture and Europe and the funds »Ausstellungsvergütungen«.
