I visit Martin Gropius Bau whenever they have a new exhibtion because it is always great. The curators just have a really good nose for contemporary art. Now there is a Yayoi Kusama retrospective. This one is different from the other Kusama retrospectives that I have seen because it offers a lot more well researched information and a great selection of early works that are not often exhibited. At the moment the museum releases tickets only every other week and you need to book them online. At present you do not bring a covid test to visit the museum.
