The IKG (International Artists’ Committee) was invited to the Akademie der Künste as part of Berlin-Karussell: The Academy as a Living Artistic Practice by Arnold Dreyblatt.

On May 2, 2026, 30 Berlin-based IKG artists presented their works from suitcases at a long table within the framework of Dreyblatt’s Berlin-Karussell: The Academy as a Living Artistic Practice. Dreyblatt draws on the circulation processes of John Cage and further develops the idea of a non-centered composition. The Akademie der Künste becomes a temporary working academy, where artists from all disciplines unfold process-oriented research, discussions, performances, and interactions. The IKG presented itself as a vibrant and multifaceted group through its artworks, performances, and conversations, in which visitors were able to participate.
