Ludlow 38, opened in January 2008, is a new satellite art space for
innovative contemporary art of the uptown German cultural organization
the Goethe-Institute. The Munich-based culture lab Kunstverein München
is set to organize programming for the first year. The Kunstverein’s
Stefan Kalmar serves as creative director, and the space is said to be
a showcase for the kind of "social exchange" that his home institution
promotes, with a focus on "collaboration and innovation." The space
also hopes to promote democratic artistic values.
Ludlow 38 is a short walk from the New Museum and at the center of the
emerging gallery scene on the Lower East Side and Chinatown.
