Most recently the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin, an iconic modern art museum designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, reopened to the public after an extensive refurbishing by the architectural practice of the British architect David Chipperfield.
In this video the architect talks about the clean line in the architectural language of Mies van der Rohe and his traditional approach to the art of building, as well as about the unique quality of the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin and about the role of architectural monuments in the future.

The film and exhibition project Mies Goes Future is designed as a longterm study, inviting artists, architects, art and architecture historians to explore the possibilities of how the future of the Mies van der Rohe House as an institution can be shaped. In different formats, such as interviews, monologues, sketches, photographs or drawings, the connection to the work of the architect Mies van der Rohe as a source of inspiration will be expressed clearly. The contributions are presented in the Mies van der Rohe House, on the website and on the YouTube channel of the house.

The film and exhibition project is curated by Esenija Bannan.
