Art as motor for social transformation and intercultural dialogue

With its issue-oriented, approach GALLERY LISTROS focuses on topics within the African context. This involves in particular an artistic involvement with topics specifically related to Africa. In addition, the presentation of artists from African countries and the diaspora offers an expanded view on a timely approach to contemporary art hailing from the African continent.

GALLERY LISTROS centers on art and dialogue and gives impulses for a change of perspective in order to support the development of a self-confident and prospering Africa. GALLERY LISTROS devotes attention to both the African continent and to Africa within ourselves. While intercultural dialogues is being advocated, the debate also includes the diaspora's role as an intermediary between cultures.

Changing exhibitions in the four large exhibition rooms (220 sqm) present works of art from the fields of painting, video, installation, sculpture, photography and new media. Accompanying programs provide space for projects, discussions and events.
