Located in artspace-mad Kreuzberg, this addition to the local gallery scene has its sights set firmly on uncovering new art forms here and abroad and scooped a major coup for its first exhibition, bringing the works of legendary New York street artist Cope2 to Berlin for his first ever European solo show.

The relaxed ambience—a few cracks in the walls and wood flooring, not to mention the people often found chilling in the gallery windows—gives Skaalitzers a homey feeling, a refreshing alternative to the omnipresent whitewash of most galleries.
