"2 Portraits" @ Lange Nacht der Museen

Sat, Aug 29, 5:00 PM

From art & music

On the occasion of Berlins popular ***"LANGE NACHT DER MUSEEN" (Long Night of Museums)*** we offer chance to see a great art exhibition just a footstep away from the Night's central Meeting Point at Museumsinsel: **Yanggu HEO** from Korea and **Zhiyi LIU** from China present portrait painting in two completely different approaches: abstract and digitally manipulated meets vibrant, realistic large-scale painting. galerie son is located directly opposite the Berlin Palace and 100m away from the center of the Long Night of Museums. So it’s well worth stopping by – for all art lovers, and those who might become one. **Free admission – no Long Night of Museums ticket required** **and no RSVP needed, either.** just feel invited to just come by.

Art classes are organized by local groups or individual hosts who create events that anyone in the Meetup community can attend. They focus on bringing together people with similar creative interests.

The frequency of art classes can vary. Some groups may meet weekly, while others might gather monthly. Check the individual group's page for their schedule.
