After its first year of experimentation through exhibitions and public programs, Times Art Center Berlin opens its permanent location at Brunnenstr. 9 in Berlin-Mitte. Times Art Center Berlin is the first parallel institution founded by an Asia-based art museum overseas.

Operating as an independent and self-governed organization, it intends to explore new models of developing Asian contemporary art institutions both in Europe and the world — through exhibitions, research, productions, screenings, public educational programs, artist residencies and publications. Additionally, Times Art Center plans to collaborate on a regular basis with local artists, curators, intellectuals and institutions via dynamic research to provide a platform of academic discourse and artistic production for Chinese, Asian and international artists.
