The Kunst-Werke Institute for Contemporary Art (KW) is a contemporary art institution located at Auguststrasse 69 in the Mitte district of Berlin. The director is Gabriele Horn. Unlike many international contemporary art institutions, the KW does not have a permanent collection. Its philosophy is that without a permanent collection, it can be more readily responsive to artistic innovation and to creative programming.〔() retrieved November 20, 2009.〕 KW was founded in the early 1990s by a group of Berlin-based artists and students in an old margarine factory.〔() retrieved November 20, 2009〕 After renovations in fall 1999, it re-opened with enhanced galleries. The building has five floors and a large courtyard for outdoor projects. The American artist Dan Graham designed its glass café, Cafe Bravo. KW works with other ''avant garde'' venues, such as MoMA PS1 in New York, the Venice Biennale, and Documenta X. The curator of KW also serves as a curatorial advisor to MoMA PS1. ==Exhibitions== Notable artists and groups who have showed at KW include: Wolfgang Breuer,〔() retrieved November 20, 2009〕 the musician Maya Kishi-Anderson〔 Annette Kelm,〔 MISS READ International publishers and artist/writers〔() retrieved November 20, 2009〕 and Ceal Floyer.〔() retrieved November 20, 2009〕 The American avant-garde artist Barbara Rosenthal performed “Existential Interaction” in its doorway as guerilla theater during the New Berlin Festival in June 2008.〔Carswell, Clare. “Existential Interaction” ''NY Arts'' magazine, November - December 2008 () retrieved November 20, 2009.〕 In 2008, the KW mounted ''Richard Serra.
