A new exhibition space for postwar art and known as the Kunsthaus Dahlem is due to open in Berlin in summer 2015, according to an announcement on Monday.

The museum will be located in a building with a rich history. It was originally the studio of Arno Breker, one of the most prominent Nazi-era sculptors. After World War II, the building was used by the occupying American forces as the headquarters of the Information Control Division (ICD) which, among other missions aimed at bringing Germany back into step with the international community, was responsible for controlling and licensing cultural institutions’ publishing activities.
