Visting "MINSK"

Visit to "Das Minsk", the new art house in Potsdam. The exhibitions show works from the former GDR as well as contemporary art. On display are works by Wolfgang Mattheuer, Stan Douglas, Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt and Dan Perjovschi. The former terrace restaurant "Minsk" was built in the 1970s in the modernist style of the GDR and is a place full of memories and identity for many Potsdam residents. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, restaurant operations were discontinued and the building increasingly fell into disrepair. However, after the commitment in the citizenry prevented the demolition, the Hasso Plattner Foundation bought the "Minsk" in 2019.
