Print Swap Event at Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin

(EN below)

On July 17, 2026, we’ll be heading to a very special place: We have the great honor of opening the “Berlin Photo Book Summer” festival (organized bymusuku – Museum of Subcultures) and the accompanying photo exhibition “Berlin Wonderland Unseen” at the State Library at the Kulturforum (Stabi) in Berlin!

And the best part: You’ll be part of this evening yourselves! As part of our Print Swap event, you’ll have the unique opportunity to exhibit your own work right in the Stabi foyer.

Here’s how the Print Swap works:

• Bring your photos:Grab 3 to 4 of your favorite prints (up to a maximum size of 20x30 cm).

• Displaying in the Foyer:Once there, you can attach your prints to the display panels set up for this purpose in the Stabi foyer.

• The Theme:In keeping with the “Berlin Wonderland” exhibition, we’re looking for your very own personal Berlin moments. What does Berlin mean to you? What curious, magical, or amazing moments have you experienced here? Whether it’s everyday life or Berlin’s nightlife—anything goes!

• Swap & Connect:The goal of the evening is to go home with prints other than your own. Swap your photos with each other, get inspired, and meet new photographers from the community.

Come join us to celebrate the start of summer with a focus on photography, and bring your best Berlin prints. We look forward to seeing you!

When:July 17, 2026Where:State Library at the Kulturforum, Potsdamer Straße 33, 10785 Berlin
