SparwasserHQ is a non commercial project room and a group of (art producing) people showing Scandinavian as well as various Berlin based artists in Berlin Mitte. SparwasserHQ can be described as a space with a flexible exhibition practise revealing a set of already existing artist networks, that the crew of SparwasserHQ is part of. The artistic media presented at SparwasserHQ has been installation, video art, photography and sound art.

Following artists among others - have exhibited at SparwasserHQ: Dave Allen (GB), Jonathan Monk (GB), N55 (DK), Frans Jacobi (DK), Jonathan Horrowitz (U), Jannike Låker (S), Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen (DK), De Brügge & De Moll (DE), Henriette Heise (DK), Nikolaj Recke (DK), Æter (DK), Bjørn Svin (DK), Anders Remmer (DK), Cornelia Smith-Bleek (DE) Diego Castro (DE), Lotta Antonsson (S), Diego Perrone (I) and Lara Favaretto (I).
Artist talks and live sound performances have collected a crowd of people in the exhibition space and thereby SparwasserHQ has become known as an active forum and as a meeting point.

Position
It makes no sense to use nationality as curatorial tool today and it is not the idea behind SparwasserHQ to present only one national(/geographical) art scene. What is the idea though, is to establish dialogues and co-operations between the art scenes. Therefore is SparwasserHQ continuously working on attaching SparwasserHQ to new network of artists.
The artists that has been and will be showed at SparwasserHQs have a dialogue orientated approach to their art production. This means that the audience is seen as active participants in the exhibition and have to give in order to achieve from the artworks.
Another general characteristic about the type of art that SparwasserHQ presents, is that it reflects on the translation of meaning between different cultures. The themes that SparwasserHQs artists have touched are such as identity, urbanity, life style, use of language and the subjective story. In general SparwasserHQ stands for the kind of art that treats large scale societal/political questions on ground level and takes real, specific situations as point of departure.
