Sculpture workshop

The sculpture workshop in the listed former Arnheim safe factory in Wedding was expanded by the bbk berlin using funds from the Senate in 1986. It is utilised by around 500 artists annually. Comprising a total floor space of 3,600 sqm and a maximum hall height of 12 m, artists have ideal and diverse working opportunities here for projects in metal, stone, wood, ceramics as well as plaster and moulding. Up to 25 artists can work simultaneously in five workshop areas. Covering a length of 160 metres, the individual halls are connected by a gallery in which work can also be carried out.
