Kottilesbe des monats

A monthly exhibition and gathering celebrating queer art, visibility, and community.

Kottilesben des Monats is a monthly exhibition and community format by Kottilesben e.V. that creates space for queer artists to present their work in an open, welcoming setting. Hosted at NOMI Winebar, the event combines visual art with short artist talks, performances, and informal gatherings, fostering exchange between artists, audiences, and the queer community. Each edition highlights different artistic positions and encourages visibility, dialogue, and connection beyond traditional exhibition spaces.

As a founding member of the Kottilesben collective, Lisa-Sophie Kempke has been involved in shaping the format in close collaboration with the team. She co-curated one edition of Kottilesben des Monats and contributed through the photographic documentation of the events.
