The Berlin Salon Night is a new collaboration involving Berlin Pulse, Sketchy Shona, THE FLOOR and Countercult. It begins with a shared interest in the room around the event: the artists, cultural workers, relationships and local knowledge that make Berlin more than a backdrop.
Four connected names, distinct roles
THE FLOOR is Sketchy Shona’s Berlin studio, residency and project room. Countercult is the separate artist-founded cultural infrastructure that connects public discovery, local cultural intelligence and paid work. Berlin Pulse and Sketchy Shona are named in the collaboration around the Salon Night.
The brands remain distinct. The connection is the project, the authorship and the people who make the room useful.
The details will be published when they are real
The collaboration has been announced, but the public date, time, venue, ticket or RSVP route are not confirmed in the available materials. This record does not fill those gaps with assumptions. The event page will be updated when the logistics are ready to publish.
Alongside THE FLOOR’s resident open call
THE FLOOR is currently accepting applications for artist stays beginning in November 2026. The open call is for artists who want concentrated time for their own practice inside a small, artist-run residential and creative environment in Neukölln.
The Salon Night and the residency are related through the room, not collapsed into one offer. One is an announced collaboration. The other is an open call for residents with its own application route, terms and expectations.
A public record for a live relationship
This page is an editable record of the collaboration as it develops. It gives the project a stable route across Countercult, THE FLOOR, Sketchy Shona and Shona Neary without pretending that a missing event detail is already settled.
Keep the names distinct. Make the relationship legible. Publish the details when they are confirmed.
Have a place with a case for continuation?
Countercult can help turn a local pilot, community archive, or cultural exchange into a clear brief for partners and public funding conversations.

How this Journal is made: Countercult publishes writing from years of work across independent culture, local economies, artist-led technology, and place. These essays, field notes, guides, and case studies make that knowledge useful and help artists, operators, and commissioners find one another. The Journal is human-authored; AI supports infrastructure, not authorship or artists' work. We welcome original reporting and pitches from journalists and independent publishers.
