frohsinnberg projekt

Welcome to Frohsinnberg projekt. Much like our approach to finding and setting up this space, Frohsinnberg is a name derived from spontaneous and fortuitous incidents, friends, local and global connections. 'Frohsinn'- an old German word for happy, a sublime sense of wellbeing, one of the first German words taught to us by Stefan over breakfast on day 4. 'Berg', means mountain, suggests the feeling of looking out over Berlin with an amazing view of the Fernsehturm and the bushy tops of Friedrichshain Volkspark from the balcony.

What is the Frohsinnberg projekt? An inspiring space for studio work, presentation and exhibition, performance and other events. There are photos below. Who is involved? You can also read the profiles of the current live-in artists on this blog. We invite artists to share our space in Berlin for temporary work spaces, projects and accomodation. How did we get here? That would be where spontaneous and fortuitous incidents come into play. When? from July 1 to November 28, 2008 in our current space. We will keep you posted on our activities on this blog and via our mailing list. Where is Frohsinnberg? In Prenzlauerberg, Berlin, home to many artists, writers and musos, great cafes, flea markets and some remarkable old buildings.

We look forward to seeing you soon.
