Organizer information

We are Maddy Dreiband and Andrea Luque Martín, two 24-year-old cultural workers currently based in Berlin.

Maddy has a background in art management, art tours, and art fairs. Andrea is specialized in cultural management and curatorial practices. We met a few months ago through an exhibition and immediately knew we wanted to collaborate. Our shared goal is to create a meaningful exhibition experience for the Berlin art community.

Title and description

Exhibition fall 2025 – Open Call 

In this exhibition, we want to explore stretching as a means of resilience: creation from the void, the unknown, the abandoned, and the emergence of alternative realities.

We invite submissions that engage with themes such as:

  • migration
  • gender and sexuality
  • visibility/invisibility
  • anonymity
  • transformation and regeneration
  • or other related concepts

The exhibition will also serve as a fundraiser for Al Jawad Camp, a Palestinian organization that provides educational services to displaced children.
