Images of terrorist attacks can be seen live, and within seconds they are dispatched via media portals throughout the world. Ten years after 9/11, the artists of the exhibition Seeing is Believing at Kunst-Werke in Berlin investigate the power and status of these images.

This spring, Berlin galleries show an intensified focus on installation art that comes with an intensified visual experience.

Light, camera, action! A Photo-report of ABC, the younger and more experimental counterpart of Berlin's Art Forum. This year the focus lies on the influence of film on contemporary art practices.

As the opening night of a proper Berlin Gallery Weekend requires, the art was somewhat secondary to the ubiquitous wine and networking by its fashionable and multilingual audience. In terms of art however, this year, the participating galleries seem to put a collective focus on exceptionally theatrical pieces and forms of presentation. Here are some highlights from our Berlin correspondent.
