Discipline: Cultural Theory + Journalism
Sandra Teitge
Sandra Teitge is a curator and cultural producer born in East Berlin in the 1980s. She organises exhibitions and programmes at the intersection of contemporary art, music, architecture and design, both within and outside institutions, often focusing on topics that receive little visibility. She is particularly interested in individual and collective feminist, class-critical and other minoritarian practices that engage with and challenge the status quo.
Teitge is currently working on Publik Machen, a five-part exhibition series in Berlin organised by the Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations (ifa) and focusing on the collection of the GDR Centre for Art Exhibitions (ZfK). For the Goethe-Instituts in France, she is curating a touring exhibition to accompany the event series Vom Osten denken. Together with Anja Lückenkemper, she runs the platform gossip gossip gossip, which takes shape through performances, readings, exhibitions and publications. From 2022 to 2025, she was one of four curators of Kunst im Untergrund, a biennial festival held in Berlin’s public spaces. For the past three semesters, she has taught the theory seminars for the MA programme PANAS (Public Art and New Artistic Strategies) at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar.
Her recent curatorial projects include the exhibitions and programmes Träumen: Annemirl Bauer und Bärbel Bohley at Galerie im Turm as part of Publik Machen (2026), Im Gespräch mit Geistern at Spreepark Art Space (2025), the Ruckhaberle Förderpreis (2024), the Neuköllner Kunstpreis (2024) and the Gallery Weekend Festival (2023). As part of the founding team, she also developed the pilot programme of CCA Berlin – Center for Contemporary Arts in 2021–22.
In 2018-19, Teitge directed Goethe in the Skyways, a project of Goethe Pop Up Minneapolis. In 2014, she founded the FD13 residency programme in Saint Paul, Minnesota, which is now run by its third director.
Sandra Teitge is a fellow at the Tarabya Cultural Academy from October 2026 to January 2027.
