Presented in King\u2019s unmistakable Futura Bold Condensed aesthetic, the book follows a lone culture worker waging an \u201cinformation war\u201d against the Culture Industry\u2019s shadowy overseers, known as \u201cSpace Control\u201d. Part-novel, part-manifesto, <\/span><em>The New Space<\/em><span> skewers relevance, gatekeeping and the absurd choreography of trying to \u201cbreak in\u201d on platforms built to shut you out. It\u2019s a darkly funny, painfully accurate portrait of creative life today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>4 December 2025, 6:30\u20138:30pm at Rosegarden, Berlin<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item slide not-active\" id=\"c0681273-bc32-43c8-b8de-b3a300c4cd6a\" data-current-slide=\"12\/15\" data-next-slide=\"7f578058-38cd-49ec-a5b3-b3a300c4cd6a\" data-previous-slide=\"f074471e-0265-4fa4-85b2-b3a300c4cd6a\" data-slide-ref=\"slide-12\">\n<div class=\"gallery-nav gallery-nav-mobile\">\n<div class=\"hidden-tablet hidden-desktop\">\n12\/15\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"slide-index hidden-phone\">\n12\/15\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item-content\">\n<div class=\"gallery-item-contents\">\n<div class=\"image-container\">\n<div class=\"instagram-container embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"media-instagram\" data-script-depends=\"instagram-embeds\">\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"image-credits\">Courtesy of @gagosian<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item-left-container\">\n<h2>Richard Serra: Running Arcs (For John Cage), New York, USA<\/h2>\n<div class=\"text-container\">\n<p><span>More than three decades after its debut in D\u00fcsseldorf, Richard Serra\u2019s <\/span><span><em>Running Arcs (For John Cage<\/em>)<\/span><span> returns \u2013 this time to Gagosian\u2019s West 21st Street space, marking its first-ever showing in the US.
