On 17 July 2019 a public serenade concert with baroque arias with the title “Schönheit gegen Gewalt” (Beauty against Violence) will take place in Schöneberg from 8:30 p.m. in the open air. As in the previous year, the organizers, the Foundation “Forum of Cultures on Questions of Time”, represented by Prof. Dr. Rudolf Prinz zur Lippe, and the gallery owner Pascual Jordan (Workshop Gallery), would like to positively charge a place in the city that has fallen into disrepute as a result of criminality and oppose violence with the beauty of art and culture. “Between the great Cabaret Eldorado and Erwin Piscator’s theatrical departure, the beautiful old quarter (Schöneberg, editor’s note) once carried us so much of Berlin’s cosmopolitan spirit. Even now, people who are known and unknown live here, who have a sense for the questions of our time and the vastness of this world, engaged in the arts, in politics and in the problems of our present. This pretty little square on a street corner is waiting to become a rendezvous for such consciousness from time to time. Some things have been done for it. Inviting rounds of sitting, a generous flower bed and already in the evening […]

Ilna Ewers-Wunderwald (1875-1957) was a true Art Nouveau icon. Before the First World War the myth-loving artist was celebrated by art critics, but then fell into oblivion for more than 100 years. Literature connoisseurs still know her today as the wife of the scandalous writer Hanns Heinz Ewers (1871-1943), whose books she illustrated. From 28 February to 23 June 2019, an exhibition of the complex artist was shown at the Bröhan Museum in Berlin. You missed the exhibition? Too bad, but don’t worry: simply visit the exhibition virtually in the EXHIBITION SPECIAL 360° created by ART@Berlin at the end of this article, almost as if you had been there yourself. The visual artist, fashion designer, cabaret artist and translator Ilna Ewers-Wunderwald has had such a complex and intense effect that it is amazing how she could almost completely fall into oblivion. She has been inspired for her works by adventurous world travels to South America, Southeast Asia and above all India. The artist received public admiration and recognition not only for her paintings, but also for her book designs and fashion designs – as well as her appearances as a cabaret artist on the  … Read the article further and […]

until 18.08. | #2522ARTatBerlin | ifa-Galerie currently presents the exhibition SEEDS FOR FUTURE MEMORIES – Voicing the two ends of migration with artworks by Johanna Bramble, Aliou (Badou) Diack, Juan Pablo Macías, Fabrice Monteiro, Mario Pfeifer, Judith Raum and Lerato Shadi. Two years ago, the artists’ residencies at Villa Romana, Florence and the Thread in Sinthian, south-east Senegal, began a cooperative project on the migration route between Africa and Europe. The fundamental idea of the project was to examine the lack of common narratives at the two end points of migrational flux. Last year, 13 artists from Benin, Cameroon, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico and Senegal travelled to and carried out research in Sinthian and Florence. What is the rationale behind this lack of communication and the asymmetrical relationship between the two continents? How can artists acquire, reflect on and interpret these narratives? Brother Maize and Brother Babacar, 2018, video still © Juan Pablo Macias The Tambacounda region, in which Sinthian is located, has the highest rate of migration in West Africa and is a crossing point on the route that passes into Mali and Libya. For many years, tens of thousands of people of Moroccan, Senegalese and Nigerian descent […]

until 07.09. | #2521ArtatBerlin | Starting on 20 July 2019 Kristin Hjellegjerde Berlin exhibits “Recycle” a show by the artist Ephrem Solomon. Kristin Hjellegjerde Berlin presents Recycle, a new body of work produced this past year by Ephrem Solomon. It’s a continuation of his ongoing exploration into nature, the effects of climate change, the human condition and the cycle of long-term transformations that occur as time passes. Solomon conceptualises the cosmos as ‘the origin of the universe and the meaning of human life in the vastness of space,’, at a time when notions of societal freedom, race, multiculturalism and nationhood are continuously being called into question. Regarding his new series, Solomon states; “I’m interested in the idea of cycles that take place within cultures and over extended periods of time. When we try to understand the cosmos, both as a way of system of thinking and our universe, they become a point of departure, both intellectually and physically. Our ability to unite the two provides a space where we can begin afresh with the comfort of the past.”’ Over the past few years Solomon has garnered recognition in Ethiopia as well as internationally for his striking two-dimensional woodcut and mixed-media […]

until 31.08. | #2518ARTatBerlin | Robert Morat Galerie shows from 13 July 2019 the exhibition Still (Noon) by the photographer Shane Lavalette. When Swiss Fotostiftung in Winterthur and the Musée de l’Elysée in Lausanne approached young American photographer Shane Lavalette to contribute work to a group show titled “Unfamiliar Familiarities. Outside Views on Switzerland” in 2016, Lavalette started to research in the Winterthur archives. He came across contact sheets of a reportage by Theo Frey. Swiss photographer Theo Frey (1908-1997) was a photo journalist and a documentarist. For the 1939 Swiss National Exhibition he visited and systematically photographed in twelve Swiss villages, aiming to tell a story of Switzerland at that moment in time.

until 01.09. | #2517ARTatBerlin | Galerie kajetan Berlin presents from 6 July 2019 the exhibition Beauvais with  sculptures, painting, drawing and objects by the artist Erich Reusch. Both Erich Reusch’s time as a marine on a minehunter during the second World War and his work as a minesweeper at sea to earn money after the war, as well as his later passion for gliding prepared him with a knowledge of flow characteristic behavior, magnetism and dangerous situations respectively with an enthusiasm for aerospace and its energy, thermal lift and static charge. With this experience and such knowledge, the works of the artist, who was educated as an architect and a sculptor, are closely related. Since the beginning of his artistic practice, Erich Reusch has been tracking the qualities of space, that are not based on mass, gravity and matter, but on the understanding of the space as a field of force filled with different energetic qualities. With Erich Reusch, the space becomes the incidence. His works sharpen our awareness of the space in which we find ourselves. These are not only the interior space, but also the architectural structure of our cities, landscape space and the cosmic space. Exhibition view […]

until 03.08. | #2514ARTatBerlin | EIGEN + ART Lab shows from 3. July 2019 the exhibition Some hollow crowns by the artist Bertrand Flanet. Some hollow crowns features recent productions and developments from the artist Bertrand Flanet. The exhibition starts with blue and blue, a footnote acting as a general introduction, invoking invisible and visible abstract narrations, close to epic tales. The work is a text on linen inspired by psychological motifs and linked to the artist’s interest in narratives. It alludes to a plot evolving for twelve hours as twelve chapters and iterations in a single day. A single chapter is introduced as part of a large scale series of twelve chapters existing as panels. The printed text recalls the narrative of a boy killing monsters in a plot crafted the vein of science-fiction. The entire twelve chapters exist also in the form of a small book, similar to a children’s book, available for review in the Lab library. By breaking with seriality and presenting a single chapter in isolation, the artist focuses our attention on the invisible paratext within the chapters one may typically omit. In that perspective, he is pursuing his interest through the text, narratives, and objects […]

until 31.08. | #2513ARTatBerlin | Galerie Thomas Schulte presents from 5 July 2019 the summer exhibition Family by the artist Richard Deacon. Born in Bangor, Wales, in 1949, Richard Deacon has emerged as one of Britain’s most celebrated sculptors. From an early stage in his career, Deacon began experimenting with different media and forms of expression. Drawing and writing, quickly became an integral part of his artistic method, and are central to his documentation of performance. In his sculptural work, Deacon uses a wide range of materials, including laminated plywood, concrete, stainless steel, plastics, and clay. His structures emerge from a keen interest in the characteristics of the materials themselves, allowing him to play with the ways in which their forms relate to human association and sensory experience. Seeming initially abstract times, the sculptures’ forms billow, churn, and ripple, approximating the anatomical, suggesting recognizable or organic shapes to the viewer without ever collapsing completely into the already familiar.

until 27.07. | #2510ARTatBerlin | galerie weisser elefant shows from 1st July 2019 the installation “Hantieren und Fingieren (in Farbe #6)” (> Handling and faking (in colour #6) by the artist Elisabeth Sonneck. This is taking place in combination with the summer course for children of Daniela Herr in the gallery (01.-05.07. + 08.-10.07. 2019, 10-15 o’clock, registration requested). For her summer exhibition the gallery is again open, bright and free: Elisabeth Sonneck shows the installation “Hantieren und Fingieren (in Farbe #6). The title of the exhibition says that something is faked, this is called faking and means the effect of colors in space. The “handling” is of course the work itself, which happens with hands and fingers. For this purpose, generous lengths of paper are stretched and rolled through the room, painted, and later released for further processing by children in the gallery’s summer course. The coloured stripes divide the rooms or connect them, create new perspectives and constantly illuminate fresh colour effects. In this way, the artist creates very topical, fleeting effects at every moment, which are astonishing and inspire the viewer to continue imaginating.

until 17.08. | #2509ARTatBerlin | Esther Schipper presents from 27th June 2019 an exhibition by the artists Christoph Keller, Hito Steyerl and Tao Hui. Esther Schipper is pleased to bring together works by Christoph Keller, Hito Steyerl and Tao Hui. Christoph Keller has been with the gallery since 1997; Hito Steyerl and Tao Hui joined the program recently. If the works presented here are characterized by a variety of forms, they all address issues of identity, belongings and migration. While Christoph Keller’s body of work reflects upon the traces left by history and politics on our urban landscape, Hito Steyerl makes visible our society’s political contradictions and hypocrisies through a system of cultural references. Tao Hui’s immersive multimedia installations bend the boundaries of fiction and reality to address cultural and identity related issues.

until 03.08. | #2506ARTatBerlin| Galerie Inga Kondeyne – Raum für Zeichnung shows from 28th June 2019 the exhibition by the artist Kazuki Nakahara.  We cordially invite you to the “backstage” exhibition opening, with a small selection of new drawings by Kazuki Nakahara. On stage opens at the same time the Wichtendahl Galerie: MATS BERGQUIST I Vintersaga. Kazuki Nakahara came from Tokyo via Vienna to Berlin in 2005 to study here. In the rapidly changing art world of this city he now asserts himself as an extraordinary draughtsman. Nakahara draws tightly meshed, linear networks with coloured pencil over the papers. At first glance, signs that cannot be unravelled are mostly horizontally flowing, woven into often overlapping worlds of lines. These, in turn, open up into long, excessive structural formations, which atmospherically surround light zones and flows. Motion patterns are fathomed in the interaction with and against each other, in collision or disappearance on levels of the surface newly conquered by him. A remarkable openness to the world spreads out graphically on the white papers. Kazuki Nakahara, o.T., 2019, Buntstift, Kreide auf Papier, 30 x 84 cm Biography: Born 1980 in Kagawa/Japan; 2000-05 studies at Yokohama City University; 2005-10 studies at Kunsthochschule […]

until 11.08. | #2505ARTatBerlin | Haus am Lützowplatz presents from 21st June 2019 the group exhibition Hey, Mars!, curated by Lydia Korndörfer, with works by A/A (Andreas Greiner & Armin Keplinger), Natalie Körner, PPKK (Sarah Ancelle Schönfeld & Louis-Philippe Scoufaras) and Elisa Storelli. From 22 June to 11 August 2019, the Studio Gallery in the Haus am Lützowplatz will be transformed into a space station. The exhibition “Hey, Mars!” is dedicated to the newly emerging Mars fever. Only 50 years after the moon landing, the next important space destination is now within reach: By 2027, Mars should not only be entered, but also colonized. What reads like science fiction is reality: colonization plans, infrastructure and technologies for the future Martians have already been developed. Natalie Körner, Rocking Rocks (Mars), 2019 © Natalie Körner, 2019 The exhibition sees itself as a playful excursion into the future of mankind on Mars and Earth. While the flight into space is gaining importance and attention as an exit strategy, the future of our planet, society and culture as we know it remains uncertain. Will man find or create a new Earth? What knowledge, what values will be handed down if today, as a consequence […]

until 10.08. |#2501ARTatBerlin | Galerie Dittmar shows from 21st June 2019 an exhibition with sculptures and drawings by the artist  Rainer Kriester. “I’m a realist by nature, but I don’t work realistically. I’m not an abstractor, but I’m searching for abstraction.” (R. K.) Rainer Kriester (1935-2002) is one of the most distinguished sculptors of the later 20th century. The relocation of the focus of his work to Castellaro near Vendone in Liguria in 1982 marked a turning point in his oeuvre. The expressive, violent and painful expression of the earlier works is sublimated, the power is transferred to the inside, the statement is transformed into the symbolic. The sensual qualities of the material, limestone, marble, are revealed. The drawings accompanying the sculptural work play a special role. Since the first major exhibition in 1975 at the Schoss Charlottenburg, Berlin, numerous museum exhibitions with accompanying publications, such as 1982 at the Wilhelm Lehmbruck Museum in Duisburg, 1985 at the Staatliche Kunsthalle Berlin and at the Museo d’Arte Contemporanea in Genoa. 1993-1994 follows the touring exhibition “Scultura-Natura” over six stations, 1999 Den Haag, 2000 “Der mediterrane Traum” at the Pergamonmuseum Berlin. In 1997 and 2003 the catalogue of works was published by […]

until 03.08. | #2502ARTatBerlin | ALEXANDER OCHS PRIVATE shows from 20th June 2019 the exhibition AUFMACHEN. LINIEN. WEITEN. with new works by the artist Jan Muche. The painter and sculptor Jan Muche, born in 1975, looks back once again to early modernism, its representatives and thus also to his artistic work of recent years.   Jan Muche, o.T., 2019, Acryl und Bootslack auf Leinwand, 70 x 60 cm While many considered the artist living in Berlin to be a ‘restorer’ of constructivism, Muche proves the opposite in his last pictures. He goes partly back in to the figuration and takes on the tragic heroes of breakup and modernity from the time of the first half of the 20th century. Jan Muche, o.T., 2019, Acryl und Bootslack auf Leinwand, 90 x 70 cm He portrays Vladimir Tatlin, who died in Moscow in 1953, and combines his figure with a picturesque structure reminiscent of the three-dimensional reliefs of the Russian and Soviet artist. Influenced by Kasimir Malevich, Tatlin created a model for the monument for ‘The Third International’ (1919-1920) and Muche incorporates the symbolism of fine steel mesh in Tatlin’s sculpture, as well as the surfaces of Malevich’s painting, into his own imagery. Thin, sometimes superimposed colored lines cover Muches canvases. In collaged pictures he pastes surfaces of old papers and fabrics that seem like […]

until 09.08. | #2498ARTatBerlin | Migrant Bird Space shows from 22nd June 2019 the exhibition Winter kept us warm by the artist Michal Martychowiec. Post-conceptualist Michal Martychowiec presents his second solo-exhibition at Migrant Bird Space, comprising his newest body of work from the series “The daily questions”, “Do you believe in art” as well as “Shadows and other signs of life”. On display will be neoninstallations and prints, accompanied by his infamous “Art Cage”, featuring conceptualised rabbits. From: “The daily questions” | © Martychowiec, Migrant Bird Space Despite its modest size and -at first sight- literality of elements, the exhibition offers a complexity of ciphered hermeneutic constructions. It combines references scattered not only within its own frame but most importantly within the complex practice of the artist and art history. The spectator is invited or perhaps challenged with the possibility of a reading. However, how should one approach the hero of this story – Josephine – a black and white rabbit who the artist draws as one who was spared the fate Beuys’s hare met in the process of art-making? The exhibition space is clearly divided into two independent counter-parts: upper and lower. The upper part being dedicated to Josephine […]

until 24.07. | #2497ARTatBerlin | Galerie mutare shows from 22nd June 2019 an exhibition with paintings by the artist Karl Oppermann. Karl Oppermann was born in 1930 in Wernigerode.
 After graduating from high school, he studied at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Berlin. From 1970 to 1985 he worked as a freelance artist in his studio on the island of Elba (Italy). From 1971 to 1996 he was a professor for free painting at the Hochschule der Künste, today Kunst Universität Berlin. In 2008 the “Stiftung Karl Oppermann” was established together with the Hochschule Harz. The painter’s works have already been shown in numerous national (including Schloss Charlottenburg/Berlin, Hamburg) and international exhibitions (including New York, Venezuela, Colombia). His works can be found in public and private collections such as the Jewish Museum, Berlin, Prussian Cultural Heritage – Kupferstichkabinett, Dresden, Landesmuseum Bonn, Biblioteca Nacional de Madrid.

until 27.07. | #2493ARTatBerlin | Galerie Nordenhake Berlin presents from 8th June 2019 the exhibition Fool’s Gold – Pirate with paintings from the Eighties by the artist Harvey Quaytman. Looking at the paintings of American abstract artist Harvey Quaytman (1937-2002) and his prolific oeuvre spanning four decades, one is struck by the sheer physical presence of the works and the richness of shapes, colours and materials. His distinctive and personal approach towards abstraction resists any facile attempt to grasp or canonize. Curator Apsara DiQuinzio places Quaytman’s approach at the junction of “Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism, Process art, and Constructivism — a place where considerations of line, distilled geometric forms, materiality, atmosphere, and texture all coalesce.” Galerie Nordenhake presents a selection of paintings, conceived between 1980 and 1995, when Quaytman decided to work under a creative restrain, limiting himself to the basic form of a square canvas containing an equilateral cross. The cruciform unites and at the same time divides the picture, establishing four smaller squares within the painting’s overall square frame. Within these confines Quaytman found a structure in which he studied, in seemingly endless variations, the interplay between symmetry and asymmetry. He builds a rhythm through repetitions, shape, texture—and colour. […]

until 31.08. | #2496ARTatBerlin | Galerie Kornfeld presents from 27th June 2019 the summer exhibition “Pack den Badeanzug ein” with artworks of young and established positions in contemporary art. Few songs have managed to capture the lightheartedness and exuberance of summer in the way that the German hit song “Pack die Badehose ein” (“Pack Your Swimsuit”) did in the early 1950s. The teen star Conny sings about the small burdens of everyday life, which can be removed simply by jumping into the cold water of the Wannsee lake. We are pleased to present the exhibition “Pack den Badeanzug ein” , a refreshing look at both emerging and established positions in contemporary painting. Featuring a broad selection of artistic methods, we push the boundaries of what painting can be in the 21st century. What is the state of arts oldest medium in today’s hyper-digitized world? What can the analogue image do that the digital cannot, and how do the two media influence each other? Elvira Bach, Unter Palmen, 1982, Acryl auf Papier, 50 x 35 cm Participating artists:  Alicia Adamerovich, Tom Anholt, Elvira Bach, Carlo D’Anselmi, Monica Kim Garza, Stefanie Gutheil, Erik Hanson, Kimia Ferdowsi Kline, Ella Kruglyanskaya, Tamara Kvesitadze, Clemencia […]

extended until 20.07. | #2490ARTatBerlin | Galerie Martin Mertens shows from 1st June 2019 the exhibition Rhythm of the Staple Gun by the artist Julius Bobke. This second exhibition by Julius Bobke in the gallery is strongly focused on a new group of works that Bobke has created since 2018. For these pictures he uses excerpts from historical carpets from different epochs and cultures, which he inserts into the picture in a complex printing process, paints over them, bleaches them, cuts them together and reassembles them. He repeatedly stretches the pictures from the stretcher frame in order to print them or sew them together again. The stapler is often used for this. The term rhythm or pattern thus refers to stapling, the rhythm of the sewing machine but also the patterns of the carpet fragments. Basically, a painted picture is more closely related to a carpet than one might think at first glance, because both are ultimately dyed textiles. Julius says: “From the 13th to the 17th century, the Oriental carpet increasingly appeared as a decorative element in European painting. Today, more carpets are depicted in Renaissance paintings than have actually survived. Thus the research of Islamic art also focuses […]

extended until 12.07. | #2489ARTatBerlin | Galerie aKonzept presents from 6th June 2019 the Wobbling Middle Age Elf exhibition, a solo exhibition by the artist Julia Zastava. On Thursday, June 6th at 6 pm, Galerie aKonzept cordially invites you to the opening of Julia Zastava solo show, the Wobbling Middle Age Elf Exhibition. IN AN EMPTY NIGHT CLUB, 42 x 30 cm, pencils, acryl on cardboard, 2019 no title, 42 x 30 cm, pencils, watercolor, acryl, phosphorescent paint on cardboard, 2019 Drawings, sculptures, videos, installations and performances line up in the artistic practice of Julia Zastava, diverging from one another and returning to motifs that consistently permeate the work. In her repertoire, animals, brutes and men are as familiar as animated objects, fairies, and as magical as spectral features. If it haunts its images, it is less an expression of a fairytale fantasy than the echo of a reality in which the irrational and frightening have become the program of political and economic developments. Distortions, traumas and abstruseness provide the vocabulary for a present in which the spook rules. The face of the erratic everyday life in which the ghostly, the fairy tale and the monstrous pass into each other […]

until 28.06. | #2485ARTatBerlin | rk – Galerie for contemporary art in the Rathaus Lichtenberg is currently showing the exhibition ” Bilder. Geschichten – Schichten. Bilder” with paintings, drawings, objects by the artists Andrea Lein and André Bauersfeld, both from Berlin. On display are paintings and drawings by Berlin artists Andrea Lein and André Bauersfeld. Composition, surface division, colour design, rhythm, pictorial grammar, foreground and background, lines, contrasts – these classical basic values of art, which are almost frowned upon in contemporary art today and rarely explicitly mentioned, are the main focus of this exhibition. In the 1980s, both artists studied ceramics at the Kunsthochschule Halle-Burg Giebichenstein, Andrea Lein studied free art and painting, André Bauersfeld studied ceramics. So it is not surprising that Bauersfeld would like to show not only drawings but also some wall objects. And on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Bauhaus this year, he specially reconstructed a ceramic light temple by Bauhaus artist Otto Lindig, of which only a 1920 photograph has survived.

until 15.06. | #2484ARTatBerlin | Galerie Sievi currently presents the exhibition by the artists Gudrun Sailer and Beate Bitterwolf. Plantares, Floridez, Horizonte – nature as inspiration, this is the great constant of Beate Bitterwolf’s artistic work for the painter born and raised in the Allgäu. The close-up view of the organic world of the plants on the one hand, the wide view into the depths of the landscape, the mountains, the earth on the other hand. Her painting moves between large expanse and small-scale painterly structures. In detail as in the overall view, her paintings are characterized by a great variety of techniques, structures and movements. There are almost always crossings and overlaps. The canon of forms seems to have sprung from the painterly process and to have been guided by a dynamic movement. Beate Bitterwolf, Floridez 19-1-4, 60 x 100 cm, 2019 The concept of the pictures flows together with the particularities of the techniques: flowing, glazing, brushing as Beate Bitterwolf calls it, masking, smoothing, collaging, hatching, pouring – all these achievements of the informal – are used by her in a variety of ways. Leaving this context and contrary to the laws of the informal, the artist drives […]

until 03.08. | #2482ARTatBerlin| Daniel Marzona presents from 21st June 2019 the solo exhibition Berlin Floater 2019 (after Marfa Floater silver/gold, Marfa, 2019) by the artist Mischa Kuball. Mischa Kuball (born 1959) lives and works in Düsseldorf. He has been working as a conceptual artist in the public and institutional sphere since 1977. He uses light as a medium to explore architectural spaces as well as social discourses, public and private space merge into an indistinguishable whole in politically motivated participation projects. The question of a contemporary definition of public space art  has undergone a substantial change since the 1970s up until our time. Since 2009, Mischa Kuball has developed a series of sitespecific installations entitled ’public preposition’ – a group of works, interventions, projects, and performances made over a period of several decades. What they have in common is that they appeal to a public sphere and implicitly question in what locations and under what circumstances what we mean by “public” is constituted and how it should be understood. In that project series Mischa Kuball reposits the topic oft he oublic space within an extended context. “Preposition” here means words, such as “at/auf”, “among/unter” or “beside/neben” and thereby the relationship between […]
