The Ideal Candidate(s)
Our organizational format is adhocracy, tinted with feminist anarcho-communitarian tendencies. We are a team bound by affection and mutual care, a lot of different people have been involved in the Berlin Art Prize over the past six years, and we are pretty sure that everyone would agree that it was intense but also very fun.
