The artist-run project space is located in Kreuzberg, Oranienstrasse, and is organized by 9 artists. Situated in the smallest house in Kreuzberg, SCOTTY provides a platform for artists and its members as curators as well as invited guests, allowing the most freedom while maximizing group potential. Thematic group exhibitions are held at regular intervals, along with organized performances and film evenings. The focus lies on contemporary social and cultural-political issues. SCOTTY operates independently of the market, embracing self-autonomy and a non-hierarchical structure. Beyond the work conducted in this space in Berlin-Kreuzberg, SCOTTY’s members initiate and organize supra-regional and international collaborations with other project spaces. This strengthens the position of autonomously working artists, providing nationwide visibility and networking opportunities. Despite the pronounced individuality of its members, they share a common desire to create new opportunities for artistic actions and ideas. The vitality of SCOTTY stems from the consistent, self-determined implementation of democratic agreements among its members during the planning and realization of projects.
