FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the Galerie der Zukunft?
The Galerie der Zukunft is a social project - and our new baby!
Every sale of an artwork artwork through our gallery project generates donations and
supports children in need to develop themselves.

Why was the Gallery of the Future founded?
The Galerie der Zukunft is based on the conviction that many dark social trends (see elections in Germany and worldwide) can be overcome if we invest a lot of effort in the educational opportunities of all (!) children! Those who are not already frustrated at the beginning will hopefully want to change the world for the better!
The Galerie der Zukunft should thus act as a mediator between two realities of life (art and
education) and is aimed at all those people who are equally convinced of the following two points of view as much as we do:
1) Art as an indispensable form of expression and organization of social life.
2) Education and support for children and future generations as a decisive part of our society of the future.
What does the Galerie der Zukunft offer?
Various art prints and original works of art are for sale.
The art prints are available in various formats as fine art prints (Claria ET Premium-Ink, Photolux professional Matte 230gsm).
The original artworks are works that combine a mix of different analog (digital scan, 3D-modeling, 3D-painting) and analog (acrylic, ink, water) techniques, and all prints and artworks for sale have the credo of the Galerie der Zukunft engraved on the artwork:
“This work of art can never be sold without donating 50% of the sale price to support a
child's future!”
How does the Galerie der Zukunft work?
Just like a normal online store. All products can be purchased online in our store and are then dispatched within two weeks. You pay the full amount by bank transfer/credit card and 50% of the purchase price is passed on directly to the
forwarded directly to the non-profit organization Strassenkinder e.V.
To which institution will the donation be made?
To the non-profit organization Strassenkinder e.V. in Berlin Lichtenberg. The association helps children and young people throughout Berlin and has been implementing the following goals and visions since 1996:
1) Reintegration
We get street children off the streets as quickly as possible in order to prevent them from slipping further and support them on their way back into society.
2) Prevention
With our services, we ensure that children do not end up on the street in the first place. We also work to prevent media neglect, violence and sexual assault.
3) Support
We actively combat child and educational poverty and help to reduce it through coordinated educational programs as part of our “Kinder- und Jugendhaus BOLLE”.
4) Integration
With a competent team of several employees, our project supports the integration of refugee girls, boys and their families into our society.

What does Edition 1/10 mean?
Each work of art is unique. The basis of the artwork, the print, can be reproduced. However, the printer's ink is partially dissolved from the paper with acrylic paint and/or water, the colors run - and this is how unique one-offs are created, allowing us to offer editions of 10 artworks per motif.In the case of art prints, this information means that the respective motif is only printed in this format for a limited time.
How can I order?
Either directly in the online store or write us an e-mail (with the title and format of the picture or art print).

How can I pay?
You can pay via Stripe (credit card) or Paypal in the online store.
How does shipping work?
The work or art print will be sent to your desired address within two weeks via DHL.
Is there a donation receipt?
An association has not yet been founded. Unfortunately, there is currently no donation receipt, but this will be possible in the near future. However, we will be happy to send you a confirmation of payment of the donation in the meantime.
If that's too delicate for me...
Yes, we are still in the initial phase...
If this business model is too tricky for you and doesn't seem trustworthy or you absolutely need a donation receipt, there is also the possibility that we only charge you half of the price and you transfer the other part, i.e. the donation, to Strassenkinder e.V. yourself. All we need is a receipt for the transaction.
