until 14.02. | #4853ARTatBerlin | Galerie Deschler shows from 21 November 2025, the exhibition NACKT – 30 Years of Galerie Deschler Berlin by the artists Elvira Bach, Luciano Castelli, Rainer Fetting, Gerhard Kehl and Salomé.
To mark its 30th anniversary, Galerie Deschler Berlin will be presenting the exhibition ‘NACKT’ (Naked) from 21 November 2025, featuring works by Rainer Fetting, Elvira Bach, Luciano Castelli and Salomé – important representatives of the ‘Junge Wilde’ (Young Wild Ones) and their artistic milieu.
The exhibition focuses on early erotic nudes from the 1970s and 1980s, which are regarded as symbols of sexual self-determination and artistic freedom. Special attention is given to the juxtaposition of Fetting’s ‘Figur an der Mauer’ (Figure at the Wall, 1987) with his sculpture ‘Die Drehung’ (The Turn), which takes up and continues the pose of the figure from the painting.
Accompanying this, the ‘Blue Series’ by Gerhard Kehl, who died in 2024, in the basement commemorates the opening of the gallery on 16 December 1995 – as a tribute to three decades of committed, courageous and innovative gallery work.
Opening reception: Friday, 21. November 2025, 7-9 pm
Exhibition dates: Friday, 21. November 2025 – Saturday, 14. February 2026
