In collaboration with artist Mischa Kuball, Weltkunstzimmer Düsseldorf is concluding its year-long project space_relations with the final presentation How to make friends. Over the course of 2025, the project developed into an open laboratory in which more than 30 artists, theorists, and cultural practitioners from various disciplines came together to test models of collaboration, temporary communities, and joint authorship.

space_relations explores the interrelationships between urban space, society, and artistic practice. Throughout 2025, the project brought together artists, theorists, and the public in site-specific interventions, performances, and discursive formats. As its final chapter, How to make friends celebrates the experimental nature of the project with new models of collaboration, interdisciplinary encounters, and the initiation of networks in the city and beyond.
