Kunstraum Ossastraße is an artist space located at Ossastraße 38 in Berlin-Neukölln. 

Between 2012 and 2015, the Belgian curator and artist Ludovik Vermeersch organised a series of exhibitions and artist presentations at Kunstraum Ossastraße that investigated contemporary strategies of "contextual" abstraction. The project was supported by the University of Antwerp and Sint Lucas University College of Art and Design, and resulted in a book and an accompanying lecture performance. 

Kunstraum Ossastraße has since continued to function as a working space, occasionally organising public events that focus on the format of the lecture performance.
