Dear G,
Kunsthouse Tacheles, an artist squat. Yes is smelled like piss and pot but it was still a cool place to see.
Ok bye.
Located in the former Jewish quarter. Tacheles has had many purposes. Entrance to a shopping mall, marketing space, administration space by the Nazi party, storage and shortly after the fall of the Berlin wall the building was discovered and taken over by a group of young artists, becoming an illegal squat.
They entered into a 10 year lease agreement with the building owner which ended in December 2008. Artists refusing to vacate are now squatting again.
Tacheles also houses studios, gallery space, bar, restaurant and a shop selling artist’s work.
I found a video on youtube that gives a little inside guided tour so you can see for yourself.HERE
