Gallery Auslage is a curatorial lab for art, books, objects and ideas.
Galerie Auslage follows on from the history of off-spaces in Berlin, which have a rich history in the city but have been displaced by gentrification, real estate speculation and the associated pressure for a commercially oriented monoculture.
Galerie Auslage considers itself an open space that operates on the principles of DIY culture, the copy machine, speed and mobility, experiment, the temporary and interim use as a Berlin model.
Founded in 2019 by Alexandra Weltz-Rombach, the gallery was located on Pücklerstrasse in Berlin-Kreuzberg until 2023.
In addition to numerous exhibitions, such as those by Diana Artus,
, Andrea van Reimersdahl,
Ana Botezatu, Hanna Frenzel,
