Season 3: "EXISTENCE - Pride Edition

EXISTENCE – Pride Edition: Queer Art, Community, and Connection at the Crowne Plaza Hamburg

During Hamburg Pride Week, the Crowne Plaza Hamburg – City Alster will become a hub for art, dialogue, and celebrated diversity. With thePride Edition of “EXISTENCE,”The (___) Gallery—one of Europe’s largest queer exhibition platforms—is coming to St. Georg, right in the heart of a neighborhood that has stood for queer life and community for decades.

Look forward to an impressive exhibition of international artists whose works explore identity, the body, memory, belonging, and queer visibility. But “EXISTENCE” is far more than a traditional exhibition: the lobby, atrium, and bar will become open spaces for connection, where art, conversation, and new perspectives come together.

In addition to the exhibition, special program highlights await you, such as the festive
