SLEEP IN A MASTERPIECE: HOTEL MARIENBAD

(plug generation)

15 07

A five-star suite free for the asking to anyone (almost). In return you have to leave behind a personal mark of your art or talent.
Hotel Marienbad is not at all formal or stuck-up – despite the five stars displayed on its card and site. This is a complex and intriguing place housed in the historic Auguststrasse 69 building, onetime venue for the KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin.

Here a group of young artists from Bremen have created a hotel suite which for an entire year will host artists, intellectuals, musicians – practically anyone creative who requests it. It’s free but in exchange the guest is expected to leave a mark of their stay, a work, a book, a photograph, some kind of creative token. In this way the space will gradually assume the distinguishing features of its temporary residents.
