Head to Kantine am Berghain for a different reason this weekend: an exploration of the spoken word at the inaugural “Good to Talk” – a 46-hour non-stop program of interviews, lectures, panel discussions, performances, musical acts, and audience participation sessions. Initiated by a group of Berlin-based galleries (including Eigen+Art Lab, König Galerie and KOW), the goal of the program is to bring together a wide variety of people to address hot topics across artistic disciplines. Kicking off at midnight this Friday (8.9.17), there are a few sessions we’re particularly excited about, including a performance by Alexander Iskin tackling digitalisation, an “Ask Me Anything” panel with gallerists, and the chance to have your fortune read by Annabel Daou. With passes costing just 5 Euro, there’s no reason not to check it out on your way into, or out of, the club.
