Peninsulais a group of artists, designers, curators and art critics largely Italian, who have settled in Berlin during the past decade. The aim is to provide an area of expression for architects, writers, musicians and all those with an interest in contemporary culture. Peninsula takes its cue from the concept of ‘Third Culture’ as a ‘Third Space.’ It is an idea of culture constantly reconstituting and rewriting itself beyond geopolitical boundaries. An open territory in which communities of intentions and ideas are shared, in dedication to Jean-Luc Nancy’s Being Singular Plural as metaphor of a social and intercultural encounter and exchange that takes its momentum from the shared experience of Berlin by Peninsula’s members.
NOW supports and collaborates with the project Peninsula, sharing the same modalities of thinking and action.
