The House of World Cultures in Berlin is Germany's centre for non-European art. It presents cultures from outside Europe via contemporary art exhibitions, films, theatre- and dance performances, lectures, concerts and congresses. The projects focus on a topic which is then being debated within various art forms. The House of World Cultures is located in one of Berlin's architectural landmarks: the former Congress Hall, also called the "pregnant oyster," in the centre of Berlin, next to the Carillon in Berlin-Tiergarten and the Chancellery.
