until 01.03. | #4587ARTatBerlin | Galerie Thomas Schulte (Charlottenstraße) is currently showing the exhibition “Mondkalb mit Reibekuchen” by the artist Betram Jesdinsky.
Myths and motors, carpet landscapes, packed lunches and fantastical creatures – nothing in this world (or beyond it) escapes Bertram Jesdinsky’s artistic cosmos. The artist’s pictorial worlds bend time and space, everyday objects seem to take on strange lives of their own, and overpopulated canvases pulsate with life.
Born in 1960, Jesdinsky studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf and later went on to co-found the “Anarchistische GummiZelle” in 1980, which became known for its experimental films and performances. In April 1992, at the age of 32, Jesdinsky took his own life, leaving behind an diverse body of paintings, sculptures, music and films.
Thomas Schütte’s dedicated 2022 exhibition in the Skulturenhalle in Neuss, offered a comprehensive view of his oeuvre. This year, the exhibition Mondkalb mit Reibekuchen (Moon Calf with Hash Browns), at Galerie Thomas Schulte takes a new look at Bertram Jesdinsky’s artistic life and work. The show illustrates the great autonomy of his work, which is reflected both in the breadth and versatility of the media he employs as well as the uniqueness of his artistic vision embodied in his work.
Exhibition dates: Saturday, 25. January 2025 until Saturday, 01. March 2025
