Spokespersons for bbk berlin
Justina Los, born in 1986, lives and works in Berlin. Los studied at the Academy of Communication Design in Cologne and media arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. She works in sculpture, video, and performance. Her works are homages to a globally non-functioning social and economic system in which the future belongs only to those who can afford it. Fascinated by hyper-capitalistic machinery of exploitation, she currently addresses mechanisms of dependency and the illusion of freedom in our society in her work. Throughout her practice, dystopia has become a motivating force, while humor and resilience remain her preferred survival methods.
Benjamin Zuber's artistic work is characterized by his quest to trace the unrepeatable quality of first attempts—which continually drives him to explore new materials and processing techniques. In a constant dialectic of construction and deconstruction, he searches for solutions to problems he has just devised, as well as for forms and formats that can represent this search. In doing so, he repeatedly opens up topics of high social relevance, only to then confront the limitations of a personal view of these complexes: grand gestures that implode. Zuber, born in 1982, studied at the art academies in Nuremberg and Vienna until 2012 and has lived in Berlin since 2014. In addition to his individual practice, he has gained some experience in university teaching, enjoys working in changing collective contexts, and has been working in a duo with Thomas Weinberger since 2018.
Former board member (resigned: 09/2026)
Alex Lebus (born in 1980 in Magdeburg, GDR) lives and works in Berlin and Dresden. She studied interface/industrial design at Magdeburg-Stendal University of Applied Sciences from 2000 to 2004 and fine art at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts from 2006 to 2012, graduating as a master student in 2014. In addition, she completed an apprenticeship as a carpenter from 2021 to 2023 and has been an artistic assistant at the HfBK Dresden since 2025. Her work revolves around questions of identity and self-location in the field of tension between opposites such as inside and outside, appearance and reality. Drawing on Hannah Arendt's idea of “I say and locate this I in a we,” Lebus addresses the alienation and connection between people and the space they create for themselves—in constant juxtaposition.
"At bbk berlin, I want to work to ensure that we artists take each other seriously, strengthen our visibility, and show more clearly how important our work is for society—based on gratitude, mutual appreciation, and support."
