The second edition of the mowe art festival took place in Berlin from the 8th to the 10th of May 2026. Poligonal (Christian Haid and Lukas Staudinger) is responsible for the festival’s concept and artistic direction, commissioned by Kultur Mitte (Fachbereich Kunst, Kultur und Geschichte des Bezirksamts Mitte von Berlin). The festival’s graphic design and art direction is executed by Studio Itch (Jasmina Begović and Barbora Demovič), typeset in HAL Gap and Aktiv Grotesk.
More on the festival’s concept from its website:
The mowe Festival for Art and Urban Culture invites you on a journey of discovery through the art and cultural landscape of Moabit and Wedding.
At numerous venues across the festival area, urban practice and queer perspectives come together in group and solo exhibitions, workshops, artist talks, experimental city walks and bike tours, concerts under the trees, rooftop performances, as well as community actions and interventions in urban space. The contributions reflect the cultural diversity of the city, its districts and their residents.
The focus is on the participants themselves: their diverse artistic positions, cultural backgrounds and experiences, which anchor the festival both internationally and locally.
The mowe Festival creates spaces for encounter, exchange and artistic intervention. It sees itself as a platform for contemporary art and urban culture and brings to light the diverse perspectives that shape urban coexistence.
