Located in Berlin, ChertLüdde is a contemporary art gallery founded by Jennifer Chert in 2008. In 2016, Florian Lüdde joined as a partner and the gallery became known under its current eponym. Long-time Gallery Director Clarissa Tempestini joined as a partner in 2023 and Alfons Klosterfelde joined the gallery as partner in 2024. Representing Berlin-based and international artists, the gallery maintains a distinctive presence in the city. With a strong interest in narrative approaches to art and operating with a sense of advocacy, ChertLüdde’s intergenerational program encourages dialogue and discursive conversation that supports bothrecentering historical positions and featuring early and mid-career artists. Often opening two or three shows simultaneously, the parallel exhibition program has played an important role in bringing together unique perspectives that further contextualize and strengthen the artists’ practices. This is in part also realized with the project space Bungalow dedicated to young voices and Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt and Robert Rehfeldt‘s Mail Art Archive, which is a permanent feature of the gallery. Through tailored events and readings hosted within the gallery, the explored themes and artistic approaches open themselves up for deeper public reflection. ChertLüdde has been supporting the represented artists with institutional shows and biennales for over a decade and a half. The gallery frequently also participates in international fairs
At this year’s Art Dubai, Selma Feriani Gallery and ChertLüdde come together to foster dynamic conversations around art’s role in addressing contemporary urgencies, while weaving connections across histories and geographies.
