Kunst im Forum an der Museumsinsel
The Forum on Museum Island, located between the traditional Bode Museum and the creative gallery district around Auguststrasse and Linienstrasse, is increasingly establishing itself as a new art location – not least due to the presence of KÖNIG GALERIE, which is making a striking statement here.
The KÖNIG GALERIE has developed into a dynamic platform for contemporary art in Berlin and beyond. Founded in 2002 by Johann König as “Johann König, Berlin,” the gallery specializes in presenting the works of emerging and established international artists, with a particular focus on younger generations. The program is characterized by interdisciplinary, conceptual approaches and encompasses a broad spectrum of artistic media, from sculpture and painting to video and installation, printmaking, photography, and performance.
MONBIJOUSTRASSE 13, 10117 BERLIN
ZSÓFIA KERESZTES
THE CHAMOMILE PROTOCOL
SEPTEMBER 10 – OCTOBER 12, 2025
KÖNIG TELEGRAPHENAMT is pleased to present THE CHAMOMILE PROTOCOL, a solo exhibition by Hungarian artist Zsófia Keresztes – her second with the gallery. Internationally known for her sensual, mosaic-covered sculptures combined with soft textiles, Keresztes explores identity, transformation, and connection. This new body of work deepens her investigation into how bodies and relationships function as coded systems – both delicate and sophisticated, mutable yet bound by invisible rules.
The exhibition presents the body and human relationships not merely as a physical presence, but as a network of coded patterns. These patterns act like secret algorithms that shape our care, attachment, and engagement with intimacy and control. Transformation here is a slow, recursive process in which each gesture of connection brings both nourishment and restriction.
Opening Hours: Thursday – Sunday, 11 AM – 6 PM
