Freiraumgalerie - Kollektiv für Raumentwicklung

The Freiraumgalerie, founded in a shared apartment kitchen in 2011, has developed into a diverse and professional collective of volunteers and creatives. Based in Halle (Saale), the collective works at the intersection of art, urban planning, and social participation.

• Urban Art: The Freiraumgalerie is known for its over 100 partly oversized murals that make the Freiimfelde neighborhood a vibrant gallery. Tours through the neighborhood provide insights into the stories behind the artworks and their artists[3].
• Urban Development: The collective is engaged in urban planning and develops civic neighborhood concepts, such as the concept for Freiimfelde, which actively involves the local community in the planning process[1][2].
• Urban Education and Urban Science: Through interdisciplinary approaches that combine knowledge from urban planning, education, cultural and media studies, as well as ethnology, the Freiraumgalerie promotes urban learning and develops innovative solutions for urban challenges.

The Freiraumgalerie is dedicated to creative spatial development and advocates for participatory and inclusive urban development. It promotes the involvement of the local population in planning processes and strives to find unconventional solutions that consider the needs and desires of the community. Through its work, the collective aims to shape urban spaces that are creative, innovative, and socially sustainable.

The Freiraumgalerie is committed to promoting a sustainable and social transformation of neighborhoods. By critically engaging with existing urban structures and pursuing alternative, participatory approaches, the collective contributes to the creation of livable and diverse urban spaces. Its projects are designed to achieve long-term positive changes in communities rather than prioritizing short-term economic gains[1].

By combining art, education, and participatory urban planning, the Freiraumgalerie makes an important contribution to the development of a vibrant, creative, and socially responsible urban society.
