Eight’s pop up shop features a selection of publications, drawings, handmade clothing, and objects from local and international artists.
𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘮 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 set in the exhibition rooms of Eight Gallery is a sonic and spatial exploration that plays with processes of farewell and transformation. Installed in a basement, the piece engages with the nature of underground spaces – places of storage where personal items accumulate over time, carrying memories and traces of past use. The absence of materiality is replaced by the sounds of everyday life – often overlooked, yet ever-present.
𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘮 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 conveys a sense of unpredictability, much like a game where orientation and outcome often remain uncertain. The work takes inspiration from stratigraphic excavation as a guiding metaphor – a journey through forgotten archives. Each room contains its own sonic layer, juxtaposing opposites that together compose the complete sound arrangement.

In its fourth iteration, Eight Gallery presents “Harvest”, an exploration into the bare substrates of everyday reality.
This show features the works of six artists, each delving into the process of collecting and transforming the essential raw materials of life into carefully assembled artifices.
Spanning a variety of mediums, from sculpture to digital installation, the exhibition will explore how we construct and reshape our lives, questioning the boundaries between what is bare and unfiltered, and what can become of it, as it is being documented and carefully compiled to become a narrative, much like how a harvest turns into an everyday necessity.
The exhibition serves as a contemplation on the intricate dance between the tangible and the intangible, the simple and profound.

In April, we hosted our first pop-up sale featuring local and international artists. Six rooms filled with self-made clothes, archive pieces, home decor, jewelry, paintings, records, posters, prints, magazines/books, and more.
Thank you to everyone who joined us!

The exhibition ’To Thine Own Self Be True’ explores the complexities of youth, maturity, and adulthood through the lense of photographer Alicia Nieto and visual artist Leonardo Reuvekamp.
A diary format reveals artworks that are drawn from real-life settings, carefully staged moments, and documented memories. Both capture insights of personal connections, struggles, inner battles, the ever-evolving landscape of identity thus self-consciousness.
In sharing these two different ways, the show highlights their internal contradictions. The physical prints, predominantly black and white, evoke a certain grimness from the first glance—revealing a distinctive mood and atmosphere. Oppositely, the use of digital media, immersive 3D fictional landscapes—bringing color, yet within its own interpretation of darkness, present a contrasting vibrancy and emblematic fragments.

The second exhibition of Eight - ‘Kreislauf’ covers and unravels nine artists’ take on the topic of anatomy, circulation, and body in architecture, performance, photography, and graphic design.
Kreislauf—a universal phenomenon, an integral role in our everyday life, is more than a physical process, but a metaphor for the constant movement and transformation of energy, resources, and materials we live with. From the cycles of nature to the currents of society, it shapes our actions and interactions.
The show explores the dual nature of circulation as a vital biological process and an essential part of an artist’s journey.

For the launch of Eight Gallery Berlin, the exhibition ‘On your hands’ will explore themes of revival, material, and self-rediscovery. Seven artists in seven rooms present a diverse range of perspectives on mastering their medium(s), combining traditional tools with digital and analog manipulation. The concept of merging tangible and ethereal elements pushes the boundaries between the physical and the intangible, perhaps blurring the line between the real and the imaginary. Experimenting with different techniques to create works that are both raw and realistic, yet imbued with mystical elements drawn from everyday life. The selection invites viewers to contemplate the intersection of different approaches employed by the artists in their creative processes.
