From Friday to Sunday, 1–3 May 2026, Gallery Weekend Berlin’s Art Talks program will once again transform Neue Nationalgalerie’s iconic glass hall into a space for discourse, debates, and thought-provoking discussions. Free of charge and open to the public, Gallery Weekend Art Talks will feature a selection of exhibiting artists, local luminaries, and international guests. Several talks will take place daily, providing a central hub and opportunities for encounters and exchanges among curators, artists, and the public. Exhibiting artists will engage in conversations with curators from German and international institutions,shedding light onto their practices and newly opened exhibitions in Berlin. Panel discussions with a range of speakers, including curators and art experts, will explore new ways of activating museum spaces and address the question of what the future of the art world might have in store. Additionally Hamburger Bahnhof – Nationalgalerie für Gegenwart is hosting two talks on Friday.

All talks will be held in English.
