Substitut is an independent non-profit space and platform for art from Switzerland in Berlin founded by Urs Küenzi in 2007. The venue encourages a long term international exchange. The name Substitut plays with notions of institute, subculture and even subversion. The name reflects the fact that it does not constitute a pure alternative space or an institution, but a mixture. The name Substitut can also be seen as a critical representation of art in society.
