until 05.09. | #2770ARTatBerlin | Galerie kajetan Berlin presents from 4th July 2020 the solo exhibition EOJTGBRÜ by the artist Matten Vogel. Art is the union of blobs and diagrams according to Leonardo da Vinci.[1] Matten Vogel’s works seem to follow this long tradition. However, Vogel’s painting places a different emphasis and diversifies the traditional reference mentioned. Every system of order demonstrates consistency in its exceptions. (Christoph Tannert) In his KW series (2012 – 2018) – a series of pictures, each of which records and is created within a calendar week by Matten Vogel – the artist places a grid of fine pencil lines on a white primed fibreboard and fills the small squares with black circles. The forms themselves – a circle and a square – are the simplest of all geometrical figures, and are, so to speak, the ones and the zeros in his analogue cosmos. In his working rhythm, however, and during the course of the week, disturbances and interruptions, as well as minor and major distractions occur. They find expression in his works as imperfections: fields remain empty; dots slip out of their orbits; groups and small clusters form, disturbing the wandering eye. The irritation expedient […]

until 31.08. | #2767ARTatBerlin | Galerie Kremers shows from 19th June 2020 the exhibition with the Lerchenbaum sound sculpture and painting by the artist Gregor Hiltner. “The lark sings for the last time in spring” is the title of a book by the German writer Johannes Mario Simmel. He describes the impending climate and environmental crisis and the associated likelihood of the decline of human civilization in a highly visionary manner. It is a very topical book today, although it was written over thirty years ago. In the week, the shutdown was decided, Gregor Hiltner completed his large sound-sculpture “Lerchenbaum”, equipped with an almost invisible, high quality speaker system. Larks and other songbirds, most of which might no longer exist in the near future, can be heard in an overwhelming quality of sound. The sculpture was placed in the spacious “Gothic Hall” of the Berlin Galerie Kremers to be the centerpiece of an exhibition by the artist.

until 25.07. | #2758ARTatBerlin | Esther Schipper is showing the exhibition PS81E from June 16, 2020, replacing her presence at the cancelled Art Basel. The gallery also draws attention to Festival!, a project by Esther Schipper and Mehdi Chouakri that begins on June 12, 2020. PS81E shows works by Stefan Bertalan, Martin Boyce, Matti Braun, AA Bronson and Reima Hirvonen, Angela Bulloch, Nathan Carter, Etienne Chambaud, Jean-Pascal Flavien, Ceal Floyer, Simon Fujiwara, Ryan Gander, General Idea, Francesco Gennari, Liam Gillick, Andrew Grassie, Ann Veronica Janssens, Gabriel Kuri, Jac Leirner, Ari Benjamin Meyers, Roman Ondak, Philippe Parreno, Ugo Rondinone, Christopher Roth, Anri Sala, Karin Sander, Julia Scher, Daniel Steegmann Mangrané and Tao Hui. Gallery Esther Schipper shares her thoughts on the current situation and this exhibiton with us: “In a normal year we would be at Art Basel right now. We curated an extraordinary booth for this year’s fair, selecting major works and producing many new ones. Crated and shipped from around the world, the booth installed in three full days, our team would be ready to greet you. As doors would open and visitors rush in, time would become elastic: a million short encounters compressed into these hours. Instead we […]

until 29.08. | #2755ARTatBerlin | Galerie Kornfeld presents from 27th June 2020 the exhibition Disintegration with new artworks by the British artist Robert Fry. Bringing together an amalgamation of different parts of his practice: painting, etching and collage – the new works come together in a hybrid of applied oil paint, ink, collage and etchings on prints, as a new synergy is formed, the ambiguity of the definition of the work between multiple and unique, plays on the viewers mind. Continuing his investigation into the individual and the other, the mind and the body. Robert Fry strives to question the same in people, what makes them unique and what are the ways in which they reflect, represent and imitate each other, or perhaps, exist only as so called non-distinguishable multiples of one-another. In an ongoing struggle of construction and deconstruction, Fry explores a delicate psychological space in which the human form is ever present and the concepts of manhood and the self play a key role. By reworking the pieces over and over, Fry expresses a painterly and human process of endless revision. What we see may not be what it appears to be, much as a man may not […]

until 18.07. | #2753ARTatBerlin | galerie burster presents from 6th June 2020 the exhibition SHINY DIRT by the artist Christian August. It is the first solo exhibition by the artist in the gallery. His abstractly expressive colour compositions depict a play of intuitively and quickly set grey scales, pastel colour gradients and strict, monochrome surfaces. Almost like a white noise, lies the diffuse noise of colours beneath and next to the monochrome surfaces, which sometimes act as a calming counterpart to the complex background noise. While in August’s earlier works this color noise usually moves in a scale of grey tones, overlaid by clearly defined areas in the radiant blue tone that is significant for him, other frequencies are now added, especially in his latest works with soft pastel tones and even loud red tones, making the noise appear sometimes soft and quiet, sometimes strong and intense. In his latest works, August sometimes dispenses with monochrome colour surfaces – there he interrupts and superimposes the diffusely rustling worlds of colour by means of energetic, intuitive and above all spontaneous gestures alone. Just as his works are created in rapid physical movement, they also remain in motion for the viewer: his […]

until 01.08. | #2750ARTatBerlin | PSM Gallery presents from 9th June 2020 the exhibition FREE WILL by the artist Eduardo Basualdo. PSM is pleased to announce the exhibition Free Will, the third show devoted to the Argentinian artist Eduardo Basualdo in its Gallery space. The exhibition’s title takes its inspiration from the kinetic installation Voluntad (Span.: ‘will’), which was displayed in 2019 in Les Abattoirs, Musée – Frac Occitanie Toulouse (France) and can now be seen and experienced for the first time in Germany. PSM has further commissioned an installation from the year 2013 to be re-produced for the Gallery’s window space; and, in addition, a small selection of Basualdo’s existing works has been made to interrelate with the two major works on show. The title Free Will also pays due tribute to the fact that both Gallery and artist are staging an exhibition although, owing to the restrictions imposed by the coronavirus crisis, the habitual requirements for a solo exhibition – the presentation of new, exhibition-specific works and the presence of the artist in person – cannot be met. In these especial circumstances, it is a matter of pressing concern to take human will or free will as the […]

until 14.06. | #2746ARTatBerlin | König Galerie currently shows at the chapel the exhibition Domestic with paintings by the artist Conny Maier. KÖNIG GALERIE presents Domestic, an exhibition of current works by the painter Conny Maier. Maier’s often ironic-seeming pictures invite us to question contemporary organisation and the degree to which narratives from conventional motifs are created, used and remodelled. They focus on the extreme representation of the apparently everyday as a way of revisiting coded themes from a new perspective. Conny Maier, Domestic, KÖNIG GALERIE Berlin, 2020, exhibition view by Roman März  Domestic sees Maier continue her exploration of the relationship between humans and nature, the title of the exhibition itself alluding to the endeavour to domesticate and tame what is natural. Her collections of images and scenes primarily examine the representation of plants and creatures remodelled by humans to form a system of usage and regulation, the appropriation and subdivision of nature. Her plants appear uniform and striking for good reason: what Maier portrays is the human idea of flowers as brightly coloured, saccharine, rose-like blooms in perfect pinks, yellows and blues, purely for our enjoyment. Conny Maier, Domestic, KÖNIG GALERIE Berlin, 2020, exhibition view by Roman März  […]

until 11.07.| #2745ARTatBerlin | Galerie Thomas Schulte currently shows the exhibition Listen to a Heart Beat with works by Dieter Appelt, Angela de la Cruz, Paula Doepfner, Rebecca Horn, Alfredo Jaar, Maria Loboda, Michael Müller, Yoko Ono and Francesca Woodman. While the artists use different approaches and mediums, the works on display all share an atmosphere of reclusion, fragility, disorientation, timelessness and a search for sanity—sentiments we are all experiencing at the moment. Thus, the works complement Allan McCollum’s installation Everything is Going to be OK, with its theme of consolation, which is simultaneously on view in the gallery’s Corner Space. Rebecca Horn, The Lover’s Bed, 1990 2-Part Work, Iron Bed Frame, Butterfly Wings, Metal Constructions, Motors, Photo Bed: 116 x 191 x 121 cm | 45 2/3 x 75 1/4 x 47 2/3 in Photo, framed: 53.5 x 63.7 x 3 cm | 21 x 25 x 1 1/4 in Exhibition period: Saturday, 23rd May – Saturday, 11th July 2020   Exhibition Listen to a heart beat – Galerie Thomas Schulte | Zeitgenössische Kunst in Berlin | Contemporary Art | Exhibitions Berlin Galleries | ART at Berlin

until 03.07. | #2740ARTatBerlin | EFREMIDIS GALLERY presents the exhibition Reverie from 22 May 2020. At the same time Efremidis announces that Tenzing Barshee has joined the team as program director. With Reverie, his first exhibition for Efremidis, he revisits to the exhibition Revelry, which he curated in 2014 at Kunsthalle Bern. Participating artistis: Mathis Altmann, Ketuta Alexi-Meskhishvili, Juliette Blightman, Vittorio Brodmann, Ann Cotten, Monster Chetwynd, Robert Escalera, David Hominal, Luzie Meyer, Josip Novosel Puppies Puppies (Jade Kuriko Olivo), Pippin Wigglesworth & Jannis Paetzold In the year 1974 American artist Anne Truitt (b.1921) set herself the task of writing every morning when she woke up. There was no time limit to how long she would write, just for as long as she wanted or could around her responsibilities. She started writing as a year-long project because she felt there was little integration between herself and herself as an artist. In the journal, she is referring to the self that is responsible for the domestic chores of maintaining a household, being a mother, and herself as an artist. She goes on to say that as her sculptures began to gain recognition, she felt it was harder to see herself: “It slowly […]

until 01.08. | #2734ARTatBerlin | Galerie Max Hetzler opens its new, now third location in Berlin from 29 May 2020 with an exhibition of the artist André Butzer at Bleibtreustraße 15/16. A street level gallery, in a magnificent art nouveau building, Bleibtreustraße 15/16 was formerly the home of the pioneering German avant-garde art dealer Alfred Flechtheim (1878 born in Münster; 1937 died in London), who lived there from 1923 to 1933, before the Nazi regime forced him to emigrate to London. A memorial plaque on the outside of the building commemorates him as: “art dealer, publisher and friend of modern art”. Situated in the heart of Berlin-Charlottenburg, the new space will join the gallery’s current locations at Bleibtreustraße 45 and Goethestraße 2/3, continuing Galerie Max Hetzler’s longstanding commitment to exhibiting the work of contemporary artists across generations. Since 2018, André Butzer resides in California and continues his elementary explorations of colour, light, and pictorial scale. Yet, everything seems to be “seen anew”. His paintings virtually reinvent themselves. Some of them are now even titled again, often in the form of basic words such as “Pistachios”, “Barber Shop”, and “Lunch”. Everyday things, places and activities from which the mosaic of an […]

until 25.07. | #2731ARTatBerlin | Stella A. shows from 13th May 2020 an exhibition with works on paper by the artist Hans Bötel. The current exhibition presents works on paper by Hans Bötel, originating from a bundle of 10, measuring 31 x 41 cm dating from 1991. Even though all are carried out in the same landscape format they are not series in the sense of repeated variations of a theme as seen in the exhibitions of watercolours in our gallery in 2003 and 2006. In the current show we are presenting ink and chalk drawings reformulating compositional and working methods. In some sheets fragments of forms are reminiscent of floral objects or architectural drawings. In others there are freer line plays or arabesques which follow the flow of handwriting. The papers used are of different weight, making it possible to apply colour and lines with different techniques. In his „new“ old drawings the exploring and experimental part of Hans Bötel’s work can be perceived. Exhibition period: Wednesday, 13th May – Saturday, 25th July 2020 Please note:Visits during opening hours Wed – Sa 14:00 – 19:00 and by appointment Tel.: 0176 – 52 44 44 67   Image caption: Hans […]

until 15.08. | #2728ARTatBerlin | Gallery Z22 presents from 9 May 2020 the exhibition Spaceless with photographs of the artist Katerina Belkina. From 29 June to 15 August 2020 the exhibition can be visited by appointment. KATERINA BELKINA: LIGHT AND HEAVY There is an average Russian city where the flight of time has stopped. Samara, my hometown is a racy city, which nevertheless seems faceless. From time to time, something is created there and something is destroyed. It is messy and full of contrasts, being simultaneously heavy and light, rich and poor, beautiful and ugly. It is the quintessence of the most common city in the world. It has everything and nothing. I get amazed and excited by such places. Women form the most brilliant representation of this place. Life in such a city is not comfortable for a woman, and she seeks to escape, but to escape you need a guarantee that you end up in a better place to live. The fact you are a woman grants you no pleasure and no future. You are constantly confronted with races, showing off and stress of competitions.

until 13.06. | #2726ARTatBerlin | Kristin Hjellegjerde Berlin presents from 9th May 2020 the exhibition “IKWOKIRIKWO: The Dance of Spirits” by the artist Gerald Chukwuma. Gerald Chukwuma’s thrilling ability to capture moments of rapture reaches new heights in his meditations on the ancient Ikwokirikwo dance, at the Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery Berlin. “The Ikwokirikwo is a form of communication – culture, religion, ritual and invocation rolled into one. I spent many hours talking to dancers who are in their eighties and nineties now;for them, it’s dance as a bridge to the ecstatic.” In its size and vibrancy, Chukwuma’s work transports. The sheer, painstaking physicality – of building, cutting, nailing, burning, chiselling, and painting – generates energy. The spiralling figures draw the viewer into their dance, flashes of colour elevate. Accurately, Chukwuma describes his work as a visual orchestra; the mix of woods like a series of bass tones, the use of fire to bring out the black, nails hinting at percussion, playing on pieces from aluminium cans and phone cards – “beautiful, durable, and colourful”, they form the melody. The result is best described as a force of nature. These works were made over a period of months in three separate […]

until 08.08. | #2723ARTatBerlin | Galerie mutare shows from 2nd May 2020 the exhibition Vom Kranich zum Engel (From Crane to Angel) with works by the artist Caro Stark. Works from the fields of painting, sculpture and graphics will be shown. Caro Stark, Adam und Eva 2 Caro Stark’s painting surprises with its immense plasticity. The paintings seem like sculptures. She deals with colour and form, and the result always seems strange. Her colourful, fascinating “flying carpets” mostly show figures and animal depictions, which create their own very concrete reality. This three-dimensionality is created through layered work, painted layers of colour are pasted over with paper of different colours, thinly primed. Caro Stark also shows her expressive, idiosyncratic, quite colourful handwriting in her sculptures (ceramics/bronzes) as well as in her art on building projects. This exhibiiton can also be visited as 360 Degree 3D Tour on the website of the gallery, as well as former exhibitions. Possible smaller events in the presence of the artist will be announced separately on the website and by email. Portrait Caro Stark (Detail), Courtesy Galerie mutare Caro Stark was born in Stuttgart in 1961 and was a master student of Georg Baselitz at the […]

extended through summer | #2719ARTatBerlin | Galerie Barbara Wien currently shows the exhibition “L’Abécédaire de Georges Adéagbo: la civilisation parlant et faisant voir la culture”..! by the artist Georges Adéagbo, curated by Stephan Köhler. “L’Abécédaire de Georges Adéagbo: la civilisation parlant et faisant voir la culture”..! is the second solo exhibition by Georges Adéagbo at Galerie Barbara Wien. In this project, comprising of several assemblages and installations, Adéagbo develops a personal encyclopaedia of things and impressions he has collected throughout his research in Berlin and Benin, and sets them centre stage with his written comments. Adéagbo’s installations are both a cross-section of our time with its diverging geopolitical interests, as well as an evidence of the mediating function of cultures, which Adéagbo makes visible through his cultural transfer. In Benin, he has translated what he found in Berlin into images and reliefs; from there, he brings sculptures and masks which enter into conversation with Western artefacts. At the same time, as the title suggests, the new assemblage is a reflection on the artist’s own practice of collecting and questioning.

until 25.04. | #2718ARTatBerlin | Galerie Minimal shows from 4th April 2020 the photo exhibition Graphic Encounters with minimalistic photography from the series of the same name by the French artist François Aubret. François’ work is a collection of geometries and patterns he comes across in urban environments. Like a graphic designer, he composes architecture, urban elements and nature into vibrant photographic designs. Despite the sameness of our modern cityscapes, François reveals the hidden beauty and humour found in them. François Aubret is a French photographer based in Paris. After working as a museum and exhibition designer in Shanghai and Los Angeles, he decided to use his creativity towards his own artistic practice and become the artist of his own shows. His background as an environmental designer influences the way he looks at his surroundings. To him this is where his sensibility for architectural details and dynamic compositions comes from.

In parallel, surreal works by Paul Schwietzke will be shown. Natascha Mann The artist Natascha Mann, who was born in Bayreuth in 1946, is a master of painting and playfully challenging the viewer´s beliefs, which are effective in role models of male painters and female models e.g. Natascha Mann, Paintress and Model, 1986, Acrylic behind Glass Her paintings sparkle with power and imagination. Her numerous trips to exotic locations such as Polynesia and Micronesia, had a strong influence on her characters and pictorial stories. Numerous exhibitions and participations in international art fairs document her work. Natascha Mann studied painting in Stuttgart and Munich and received a fullbright scholarship at the university in Corvallis (USA). After that, she completed a full dance degree at the Folkwang School in Essen. She taught at the University of Applied Sciences for Design in Würzburg and headed the etching workshop at the Academy in Nuremberg.

extended until 04.04. | #2711ARTatBerlin | Sprüth Magers Berlin shows from 11th March 2020 the installation THE SOVEREIGN CITIZENS SESQUICENTENNIAL CIVIL WAR CELEBRATION by the artist Kara Walker. Following on from the acclaimed Kara Walker exhibition at their London gallery, and concurrent with the artist’s ongoing Tate Modern Turbine Hall commission in London, Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are proud to present a new exhibition of work by Kara Walker at their Berlin gallery. The exhibition in Berlin will present Walker’s film work National Archives Microfilm M999 Roll 34: Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands: Six Miles from Springfield on the Franklin Road, 2009, alongside a monumental 2013 installation piece that is a brilliant example of Walker’s silhouetted wall works – entitled THE SOVEREIGN CITIZENS SESQUICENTENNIAL CIVIL WAR CELEBRATION. This film, from 2009, was developed from Walker’s research into the U.S. National Archives on the War Department’s Bureau of Refugee’s, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, established in 1865 to aid former slaves in the transition to freedom following the American Civil War. The Bureau kept precise records of the brutal and senseless violence inflicted on former slaves during the Reconstruction period, and Walker’s film depicts one such incident, detailed in the archives through […]

until 18.04. | #2708ARTatBerlin | CAMERA WORK presents from 7th March 2020 the exhibition »Fake vs. Reality« by the British artist Alison Jackson. The solo exhibition includes more than 40 works from her world-famous celebrity series, in which she explores the power of images, fake news, yellow press and voyeurism. It is Alison Jackson’s first exhibition at the CAMERA WORK gallery. The exhibition takes place in cooperation with Crossover. © ALISON JACKSON, TRUMP FUCKS MISS MEXICO NAKED (THIS IS NOT DONALD TRUMP), 2016 Alison Jackson’s impressive and often provocative photographs around the themes of fake news, “alternative truths” and news debates hit the nerve of the time. For her work, she uses celebrity doubles to stage convincingly realistic scenes in which seemingly famous personalities from politics, society, music and acting play the leading roles. She shows images of thoughts that the viewer has already imagined but never seen. She indirectly criticizes social and political circumstances and behavior. In addition to re-enacted celebrities, the exhibition also includes portraits of “real” personalities. This “fake vs. reality” game stimulates the viewer to question the truth content of images in their daily reception. © ALISON JACKSON, HARRY MEGHAN CROWN JEWELS, 2017 Jackson’s artistic concept […]

until 09.04. | #2705ARTatBerlin | Esther Schipper presents from 7th March 2020 the exhibition Fog Dog by the artist Daniel Steegmann Mangrané. Esther Schipper is pleased to announce Daniel Steegmann Mangrané’s second solo exhibition with the gallery. Entitled Fog Dog, the exhibition includes architectural light interventions, a sound installation and a new film. A two-part light intervention greets the visitor upon entering the exhibition. Lit entirely by natural light, angled dividing walls transform the space into a series of connecting rooms. A large triangular opening in the ceiling and a head-high funnel-shaped construction narrowing toward an aperture fundamentally alter the experience of the space, controlling and shaping the entering light. A second rectangular construction in the back of the gallery opens into an adjoining room, funnelling the light to create a diffuse brightness, apparition-like. While the rectangular openings recall the windows found in ecclesiastic architecture and its tradition of controlling light (e.g. as marker of the divine), yet also obliquely refer to the work of 20th century light & space artists constructing environments to shape light. The floor of the exhibition space is covered with fine gravel, giving an unexpected feeling and sound to the visitor’s gait, as a series […]

until 17.05. | #2702ARTatBerlin | ifa-Galerie shows from 28th February 2020 the exhibition In the Presence/Absence of Mazen Kerbaj, curated by Hatem Kerbaj. Mazen Kerbaj’s art deploys two tropes that are not uncommon in underground comics: autobiography and politics. An amalgamation of the personal and the historical. Yet his work extends beyond the panels of comics. It settles in space and is performed through the political body of the artist. Mazen is not only a witness; he is an actor. © Mazen Kerbaj, courtesy of the artist This show combining old and new works, and put together in this formation for the first time, draws parallels in time, medium and space. The pieces are placed in dialogue—an idea hastily scribbled on a restaurant’s placemat can be seen continued or developed in a live drawing video. It is like entering a room with a legion of Mazen Kerbajs talking, drawing, arguing and drinking with each other. Each one of them is the record of a specific moment and a particular place; on a spectrum of sobriety; in a varying tongue; rendered in a different medium. Kerbaj is always on the move, and movement is both a condition of his work and […]

until 18.04. | #2699ARTatBerlin | Galerie Born Berlin presents from 6th March 2020 the exhibition To The Ground with artworks by the artist Felipe Cusicanqui.  “In 2010 I saw works by Felipe Cusicanqui in a gallery in Santiago de Chile for the first time. Abedules, Barro y Manuela, 2020, mud and acrylic on raw cotton fabric, 165 x 193 cm To The Ground is the third solo exhibition of the Chilean artist at Galerie Born who by now moved to Berlin with his family. Looking at his paintings from within the last ten years, the seemingly endless diversity of the materials used is remarkable. Colgados. Cielo Blanco, 2020, mud and acrylic on canvas, 150 x 190 cm Bosque, Recortes y Mapas, 2019, mixed media on paper, 71 x 100 cm But they all have one thing in common: In the paintings of Felipe Cusicanqui, we always encounter his immediate environments, be it landscape or family. In Chile it was the Andes and the rural work situation, the urban spaces there. You can now discover his Berlin surroundings, the Grunewald, streets, houses, and always his family. Troncos Negros.

until 28.03. | #2696ARTatBerlin  | Galerie Eigenheim shows from 22nd February 2020 the group exhibition SEE YOU THERE on invitation of the Leipzig artist Adam Noack, with artworks by Tom Ackermann, Anna Bittersohl, Sabine Graf, Olga Grigorjewa, Sebastian Hosu, Anna M. Kempe, Philipp Kummer, Henrike Pilz, Barbara Proschak, Sabine Rak, Yuko Takatsudo und Christiane Wachter. Parallel dazu im Salon der Galerie: Neue Malerei von Adam Noack als Einzelausstellung. Adam Noack has been living and working in Leipzig for 3 years – many new acquaintances have been made, new artist contacts made and studio visits undertaken. EIGENHEIM Weimar/Berlin would like to give this circumstance a forum and shows with this exhibition a selection of different artists made by Adam Noack. Following on from the exhibition I remember you well – Adam Noack invites from the year 2017, the gallery Eigenheim is developing a small tradition. For the gallery, too, it is exciting to work together with new discoveries such as Olga Grigorjewa, Henrike Pilz, Sabine Rak, Sabine Graf, Yuko Takatsudo or Christiane Wachter and to discuss these in dialogue with artists well known to them, such as Tom Ackermann, Phillip Kummer or Anna Bittersohl. This is how the fine watercolors with […]

until 21.03. | #2693ARTatBerlin | Galerie Z22 presents from 22nd February 2020 the exhibition Up Till Now with painting and photography by the artist  Pietro Finelli. We could define all of Pietro Finelli’s works of art as a cognitive process, that is, as something created through iteration between the exponent (the artist), the exposed (the work of art) and the recipient (the one who knows). In this dynamic triad, the emphasis goes from the iteration between exponent and environment (through the artwork) to that between exponent and its process leading to the realization of such an artwork. This leads to a shift in the concepts of understanding. We move from what we consider to be our inclination to a certainty in which our beliefs constantly lead us to believe that things are pure as we see them, without any alternative. This new perspective urges us to see knowledge not as a representation of the “world outside”, but as a permanent production of a world through the process of life itself. Through the works of art presented in this exhibition (such as paintings, drawings, photographs, videos) with their cinematographic references, Finelli expands the process of understanding, from the supposed representability that […]

until 11.04. | #2690ARTatBerlin | Galerie Judin shows from 15th February 2020 the exhibition Death is Not a Piece of Cake by the artist Hortensia Mi Kafchin. 2015 was an important water­shed in the life and work of Hort­ensia Mi Kafchin (*1986 in Galați, Roma­nia). It was the year the artist, who grew up in a male body with the name Mihuț Boșcu Kafchin, declared her trans­sexu­al­ity and began the lengthy pro­cess of tran­si­tion­ing. First, she short­ened her name to the gen­der-neu­tral Mi Kafchin. Then in 2019 she chose her new female forename, borrowed from the Roma­nian poet Hort­ensia Papa­dat-Bengescu (1876—1955). The chal­leng­ing steps in this tran­si­tion came along­side a change in her artis­tic practice. Kafchin, who had been exper­i­ment­ing with differ­ent mate­r­i­als for some years and exe­cuted most of her paint­ings on unusual sup­ports, grad­u­ally turned to the tra­di­tional canvas, while her palette became markedly brighter. In 2016 and 2017 a flurry of small formats reflected the emo­tional rollercoaster that the artist was expe­r­i­enc­ing at the time. Since then, the paint­ings have grown in size and intensi­fied in color, and in them Kafchin has addressed the many-faceted ques­tions and hopes that have accompa­nied her self-real­iza­tion. She impres­sively builds bridges […]

until 28.03. | #2687ARTatBerlin| Daniel Marzona presents from 14 February 2020 the exhibition Death Chase by the artist Vajiko Chachkhiani. One week later, on February 21, Daniel Marzona opens the exhibition A Silent Conversation with Vajiko Chachkhiani and Raijiro Wada at Rolando Anselmi’s. Daniel Marzona is pleased to announce Death Chase, the third solo exhibition of works by Vajiko Chachkhiani. Vajiko Chachkhiani’s work operates somewhere between the outside world and the human psyche, bringing the shadowy aspects of our Conditio humanato awareness through subtle and intriguing visual poetry. Frequently based on performances or transformative actions, many of his sculptures share an affinity to minimalism while at the same time being charged with narrative meaning. Through his sculptures and installations, he addresses psychological conditions such as loneliness, violence and angst, interweaving them with topics from religion, politics, literature, and poetry. Recurring themes in his work are conflict, culture/nature and the oscillation between the outer reality and the inner life of the individual being. For his first exhibition at our new gallery space, Chachkhiani creates one large-scale installation based on a series of previous works titled Endless Ends. During the conflict with Russia in 2008, vast areas of the Georgian forest burned down and were ultimately […]

for now until 20.03. | #2684ARTatBerlin | Sexauer Gallery presents from 8. February 2020 the livestreamed long-term performance www.arturbating.com of the artist Alexander Iskin. In May 2020, the Mönchehaus Museum will honor the artistic work of Alexander Iskin for the first time on the occasion of his 30th birthday in the solo exhibition “Die Ursache liegt in der Zukunft”. Prior to this exhibition, the artist will do the performance www.arturbating.com in the SEXAUER gallery. It will last several weeks, during which Iskin will prepare his first museum exhibition. For about two months, 7 days a week, Iskin will expose himself to a live broadcast in the exhibition hall of the gallery, which will become his studio. Access to the gallery after the opening will only be granted to people who help Iskin to live (survive) in the exhibition space. Further information will be available at the Opening. Alexander Iskin, Foto: Johanna Laleh von Holst In this artistic experiment of an “exhibition preparation performance” the idea of a finished exhibition gives way to the production process. In this, a reference to the work of Joseph Beuys can be seen such as in the involvement of the audience and visitors Vernissage: Friday, 7th […]

until 10.03. | #2682ARTatBerlin | Galerie Dittmar presents since 24th January 2020 the exhibition Berlin London New York – retrospektiv I with photographies by the artist Katja Liebmann as the first part of an exhibition series. Katja Liebmann, born in Halle an der Saale in 1965, studied at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Nuremberg from 1989-91, at the Kunsthochschule Berlin in 1995 and at the Royal College of Art London (Master of Fine Arts) from 1997-98. She first attracted attention in the mid-nineties with the series Gotham City, which was purchased by the Saatchi Collection in 1998. In the same year she was nominated for the “Citibank Photography Prize” (now the “Deutsche Börse Photography Prize”). During her studies at the Royal College of Art she taught at the State University New York from 1997-98. Subsequently, she taught at the London College of Printing and Camberwell College of Art. 2000 scholarship from the Hasselblad Foundation Göteborg with exhibition.

until 07.03. | #2679ARTatBerlin | Kristin Hjellegjerde Berlin shows from 8th February 2020 the exhibition “Mystery of Things” with paintings by the artist Vibeke Slyngstad. Vulnerable and cussed. Indifferent and in need of protection. A scrap of overlooked scrubland near a refugee camp in east Jerusalem. A trail once used by the Comanche, where Donald Trump now wants his wall. A place of retreat in India. A coastal nature reserve in Norway. Vibeke Slyngstad, one of Norway’s leading contemporary artists, has produced an extraordinary series of paintings for her first solo exhibition in Berlin. In different ways, for different reasons, each of the five locations featured in the collection has found itself pushed to the margins of human attention. On their behalf, Slyngstad pushes back, producing landscapes of such psychological complexity it makes more sense to think of them as ‘portraits of place’. “I grew up by the sea. From the age of 5 I would walk down to the shoreline and play on my own. I made pools with crabs, arranged stones, and created small maritime environments. I had a sandbox that contained a whole world and a universe made of plasticine under my desk.” Vibeke Slyngstad Recalling that […]

until 07.03. | #2675ARTatBerlin | Persons Projects /Helsinki School presents from 25th January 2020 the solo exhibition “Going the Distance” by the artist Arno Rafael Minkkinen. The opening reception will also host the presentation of his last publication Minkkinen, 2019. Arno Rafael Minkkinen is one of the most historical artist’s within the Helsinki School, as an artist, teacher, writer, and mentor as well as being a recipient of the Lucie Award. For over forty years he has been photographing his naked body. His self-portraits are a mixture of performance art, staged especially for the camera, combined with an intimate relationship with nature. His method of working has always been about testing his own personal limits and how far he can push the human body with all the physical risks he encounters in capturing himself within the photograph. What you see in his photographs is what they are, a solitary figure at one with the natural landscape that surrounds him. Sculpturally poetic, his body is captured in the process of becoming. Sometimes a leg becomes a branch in a tree or a hand finding its touch on the horizon. His art reveals a process that blends his philosophy of life with a calmness that grows from the confidence of being one with […]

until 29.02. | #2672ARTatBerlin | Galerie Born Berlin presents from 17th January 2020 the exhibition Breathless with drawings by the artist Gilgian Gelzer.  Gilgian Gelzer, born 1951 in Bern, has lived and worked in Paris for over 30 years. There he held a professorship for drawing and painting at the “Ecole nationale supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris” until his retirement last year. o.T., 2017, Buntstift auf Papier, 30 x 21 cm The exhibition title “Breathless” stands for the seemingly endless lines on Gelzer’s works, which literally take your breath away. o.T., 2017, Buntstift auf Papier, 30 x 21 cm In the cabinet of the gallery, 5 drawings by the French artist Daniel Schlier will be on display. Schlier, born 1960 in Dannemarie, France, lives and works in Strasbourg and Paris. In Paris he follows after Gilgian Gelzer at the “Ecole nationale supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris”. Vernissage: Thursday, 16th January 2020, 6 – 9 pm Exhibition period: Friday, 17th January – Saturday, 29th February 2020   Image caption cover: Gilgian Gelzer, untitled, 2019, Buntstift auf Papier, 110 x 150 cm (2-teilig), Foto: Eric Tschernow Exhibition Gilgian Gelzer – Galerie Born Berlin | Zeitgenössische Kunst in Berlin | Contemporary Art | Exhibitions Berlin […]

until 22.02. | #2669ARTatBerlin | Esther Schipper shows from 17th January 2020 the exhibition Ku Lak by the artist Matti Braun. Esther Schipper is pleased to announce Ku Lak, Matti Braun’s sixth solo exhibition with the gallery. The exhibition will include 16 works from a new series of silk paintings and approximately 25 new glass works, the latter presented on three circular plinths designed by the artist. Exhibition view: Matti Braun, Ku Lak, Esther Schipper, Berlin, 2020 Courtesy the artist and Esther Schipper, Berlin Photo © Andrea Rossetti Matti Braun’s practice is characterized by a constant negotiation between concrete references and general allusions, between poetic ephemerality and an uncanny sense of visceral immediacy. His work investigates the unexpected, often little known, effects of cross-cultural dynamics, making visible patterns of artistic migrations and cultural misrecognitions. Since 2014 Matti Braun has developed silk works of seamless color gradations in brilliant pastels and subsequently in deeply saturated bright color combinations. The new silks-with their progressions of light and dark greys-constitute a culmination of this series. Braun returns to the limitations of a black and white color scheme explored in his early batiks but with the luxuriance of his recent series on smooth, finely woven silk. […]

until 15.02. | #2666ARTatBerlin | Galerie Eigenheim presents from 10th January 2020 the exhibition PRISMA with the artists of the gallery Konstantin Bayer, Anna Bittersohl, Benedikt Braun, Frederik Foert, Enrico Freitag, Rao Fu, Marc Jung, Caucasso Lee Jun, Martin Mohr, Adam Noack, Stefan Schiek, Michal Schmidt, Julia Scorna, Moritz Wehrmann, Lars Wild and Wang Yuhong. The gallery becomes a cabinet of the arts, the space is prismatically broken up, pictures hang freely in space – structuring and redefining the depth of it. Meanwhile, the artistic works overlap, interlock and move closer together, so that, depending on the observers point of view, there are different dialogues between the works of art. The picture becomes an object, the back of a painting becomes visible, the installation or sculpture has to compete with the linear relationships of different perspectives. A prism breaks and reflects and is furthermore a fitting synonym for the turn of the year and new beginnings as well as for artistic production in general. With this presentation we would like to compare on the one hand the individual formal approaches and content-related discussions of the artists with the gallery and on the other hand to show the intensive and close […]

until 21.02. | #2663ARTatBerlin | Galerie aKonzept and Raphael Lévy show from 10th January 2020 the exhibition VON EINER IMAGINÄREN SAMMLERIN with twelf arists. The exhibition shows artworks from: Alberto Burri, Julije Knifer, Stanislav Kolibal, Frantisek Kyncl, Piero Manzoni, Franz Mon, Natalia Ll, Arnulf Rainer, Kajetan Sosnowski, Jiri Valoch, Wolf Vostell and Ryszard Wakso. Ausstellungsflyer “Von einer imaginären Sammlerin” In order to be fully experienced, every work of art needs the thought and thus the philosophy, which is nothing other than the thought that cannot be slowed down. — Theodore W. Adorno In German or English, gender in the first person singular is not defined. Hence, I prefer to say “she” when I write about myself. She keeps her works in numbered boxes, inventoried in an electronic file. She doesn’t hang things on the wall. Imagining a work of art is more like the work itself. In her memory, it becomes more important. That is the intention of this exhibition — to see beyond the image. ALBERTO BURRI | Combustione | 1960 | Papier, Karton, Acryl, Vinavil, Verbrennung auf Leinwand | 40 x 49,5 cm From the exhibition catalogue: In einem Gespräch, das 1994, nicht lange vor seinem Tod, stattfand, […]

until 25.04. | #2660ARTatBerlin | 68 projects shows from 24th January 2020 the exhibition DIE LANDSCHAFT FÄNGT AN, WO DER DER MENSCH AUFHÖRT (> THE LANDSCAPE BEGINS WHERE MAN ENDS) with works by the artist Oliver Westerbarkey. Artists are the spokespeople of our times and can play a crucial role in provoking conversations and challenging the status quo. Throughout history we have seen time and time again an attempt by humankind to control nature, much as depicted in the Baroque gardens of the late-16th century who’s geometric treatment of gardens depicted the power of man over nature. So in 2020 we start our first exhibition at 68projects with Oliver Westerbarkey who instead communicates within his work that nature can exist without humankind, and it is in fact humans who cannot exist without a relation to their surroundings. What Westerbarkey has created, dioramas made of natural materials such as dirt and plants, is an analogue representation much like augmented reality – existing in the physical world wherein what is most alive in the work is actually the most artificial. The experience of real-world environments here is seen through the perceptual distortion of real objects instead of computer-generated perceptual information. Westerbarkey’s works […]

until 19.03. | #2657ARTatBerlin | Migrant Bird Space shows from 17th January 2020 the exhibition CHINA FEVER with artworks by the photographers Luo Yang, Lin Zhipeng (No. 223) and Ren Hang. Chinese photographers Luo Yang, Lin Zhipeng (aka. No. 223) and Ren Hang portray a Chinese subculture that defies imposed expectations and stereotypes. Their depictions of a conflicted,hedonistic youth are an autobiographical portrayal of their own generation in urban China: playful, provocative and daring, often imbued with a dark, repressed mysticism. Although each of them has a distinct style and individual artistic language, their works commonly revolve around questions of adolescence and adulthood, individuality and self-expression. Raw, intimate and direct, their portraits are intense accounts of the private lives of their friends and peers. Luo Yang, No. 223 and Ren Hang, whose suicide shook the art-world in early 2017, are known as the ‘80’s artists’, exploring the life and mindset of China’s urban youth. Their photographic styles alternate between spontaneous snapshot aesthetics and stylised images with often surreal compositions, involving bodies and limbs entangled in play, lots of nude skin, contrasted with brightly coloured props, hairs, red lips and nails. Their work reflects a deep fascination with life’s oscillation between […]

extended until 07.03. | #2654ARTatBerlin | Galerie Martin Mertens presents from 11th January 2020 the exhibition Linientreu by the artist Felix Baxmann. Galerie Martin Mertens is starting the New Year with the first solo exhibition of the Berlin-based draftsman Felix Baxmann. The artist completed his studies in 2017 as a master student at the Berlin Universität der Künste and in the same year won the Rostock Art Prize for hand drawing. The largest group of works consists of ink drawings on paper, which are constructed from countless tiny woven patterns. Some of them are condensed in several layers in such a way that structures are created that are reminiscent of textiles. His working process is almost meditative and requires extreme discipline and endurance. Felix Baxmann, FB04 (Flecken), 36 x 26 cm, Micropigment ink on paper, 2019 (Detail) “Wenn ich zeichne, dann liegt dem Prozess stets eine Aufgabenstellung zu Grunde. Ich stelle mir eine Aufgabe, bevor ich beginne. Ein Beispiel:Ich verwende nur einen Bleistift und fertige mit diesem einhundert Zeichnungen an.

until 31.01. | #2648ARTatBerlin | me Collectors Room Berlin is currently showing an exhibition by Gerhard Richter with portraits from the Olbricht Collection. Gerhard Richter has secured an international reputation as one of the most important and successful German artists of current times. The exhibition’s focus is also on human images – one of the central themes of Richter’s editioned works since the 1960s. Both photographs from his family photo album and press photos of famous personalities (Mao, Elisabeth) serve as models for Richter’s exploration of artistic techniques. At the same time, he draws on some of his painted portraits and portraits (Ema (Akt auf einer Treppe), Onkel Rudi), which he subsequently reproduces as prints or photographs. A prominent example of this approach are Richter’s 48 Portraits, which are shown as an edition in the me Collectors Room. The painterly models were shown in 1972 in the German Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. Although most famous for his paintings, over the last few years his editions have also increasingly become the focus of attention. The Olbricht Collection is the only institution worldwide that owns Richter’s editions in their entirety and can thus depict his oeuvre over a period of five […]

until 30.11. | #2645ARTatBerlin | Michaela Helfrich Galerie presents from 30th November 2019 the exhibition Angezettelt … with painings and monotypes by the artist Tina Engel. Tina Engel, Tiergarten The beginning of a canvas is the drawing of the longitudinal threads on the loom, which are called slips of paper. A new piece of fabric begins when it is warped. A play begins when the actor appears and imagines something into the room that is only visible through him and disappears again when he leaves the stage. An image begins when it leaves the painter and finds itself. Many a large text (textile !) begins on a small, empty piece of paper. A few longitudinal threads, an empty stage, the white canvas, the empty piece of paper, nothing more. One does not draw from the fullness, but from nothing. Tina Engel, Ohne Käppchen „When I paint I can see myself walking around the corner I am painting, then the corner takes over the scene.“ Tina Engel Tina Engel, born. 1950, Actress and director, Schauspielhaus Zurich and Düsseldorf, Schaubühne Berlin, Renaissance Theater Berlin Vernissage: Friday, 29th November 2019, 6:00 to 9:00 pm Exhibition period: Saturday, 30th November 2019 to Thursday, 30th […]

until 08.02. | #2642ARTatBerlin | Galerie kajetan Berlin shows from 7. December 2019 the solo exhibition Some Things Last a Long Time by the artist Haleh Redjaian. Ever since Rosalind Krauss’ paradigmatic and eponymous essay of 1979, the Grid was considered as a checkpoint of Modernity to eradicate any residual of narrative, literary, realistic and illusionistic aspects in the field of visual arts.[1] Although Haleh Redjaian often draws precise straight lines on paper, and pulls strained threads on hand-woven rugs, her work focuses on the disruption and thus inadequacy of the grid, of an ordered system. Redjaian’s grid-breaking markers are never expressive and rarely irregular, deviating only minimally from its rigid pattern and thus irritating it even more. They usually consist of carefully drawn lines, simple geometrical shapes, and come in the same formalistically strict sign language as the grid itself, the rigidity of which they generically make disappear. Haleh Redjaian: Untitled_2018, 20,5 x 29 cm, Bleistift und Buntstift auf Papier | Graphite and color pencil on paper Photo: Eberle & Eisfeld, Berlin In this sense, an existential deviation can be experienced in particular in Redjaian’s expansive thread installations, one of which can be seen in kajetan Berlin. With a […]

until 08.02. | #2639ARTatBerlin | Gallery Persons Projects shows from 23rd November 2019 the exhibition “Configured Landscapes”, the first solo exhibition of the artist Ragna Róbertsdóttir. Parallel to this, the artist Sandra Kantanen will be shown with the exhibition Smokeworks. Persons Projects proudly presents Ragna Róbertsdóttir’s first solo exhibition Configured Landscapes. This collection of works, from the 1980’s to the present, reveals the diversity as well as the tactile sensitivity that Róbertsdóttir has continuously exhibited throughout her illustrious career. Her minimalistic roots reach back to the early 1980’s, beginning with her earliest experimentations with textiles and organic materials that were inherently common within her Icelandic environment. Róbertsdóttir’s approaches her work methodically, leaving each element used, enough space to define its own presence of being. To fully appreciate the gravity of Róbertsdóttir’s art, one needs to merely image taking a walk into one of Iceland’s many austere landscapes. It feels less like a trek into somewhere and more like a journey to elsewhere. Her pieces project an overall sensibility that harbors both the power of its materiality combined with the lightness of its becoming, whether it be salt, stone or glass. In the interview for the newspaper Independent she said once “I always have […]

until 21.11. | #2636ARTatBerlin | Galerie Michael Haas shows from 22nd November 2019 an exhibiiton with the artists Hans Uhlmann and Günter Umberg. In an extensive exhibition, Galerie Michael Haas confronts sculptures and drawings by Hans Uhlmann (1900-1975) with paintings by Günter Umberg (*1942). A strict, intensively densifying abstraction, which at the same time testifies to an incredibly sensitive handling of the possibilities of drawing and painting, characterizes the two very distinct artistic positions: the late sculptures and drawings of the time around 1960 by Hans Uhlmann and the monochrome works by Günter Umberg, which seem to float in front of the wall surface and which were created in recent years. Uhlmann, who studied engineering in Berlin, turned to sculpture as a young man. Geometric bodies, partly completely abstract, partly in strongly simplified configurations of iron or wire, were the focus of his artistic life. He left behind an extensive oeuvre of drawings in addition to his many sculptures. Beginning in the late 1950s, Uhlmann developed distinct black-and-white drawings of line, space, and dynamics based on moving bodies and their outlines. These drawings increasingly condense and leave the amorphous behind in favour of clarity and concentrated austerity. Uhlmann’s works on […]

until 20.01. | #2632ARTatBerlin | Kunsthaus Dahlem currently shows an exhibition with artworks by the sculpteur Jussuf Abbo. The sensitively modelled female heads by the sculptor Jussuf Abbo inspired the Berlin art scene of the Golden Twenties. Abbo participated in the progressive movements of his time and was a close friend of Else Lasker-Schüler and Kurt Schwitters. With the Nazi takeover, Abbo was repeatedly branded – he was stateless after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, exposed by his Jewish ancestry to Nazi racial fanaticism and his girlfriend Ruth Schulz was illegitimately pregnant by him. In a dramatic way, the pair fled to England in 1935, where Abbo could not continue his career. On the occasion of the release of the first monograph on the life and work of the artist, Kunsthaus Dahlem dedicates a solo exhibition to Jussuf Abbo with about 40 works on paper and sculptures. The exhibition is supported by the Mehler family and Freundeskreis Kunsthaus Dahlem – Bernhard Heiliger e.V. In cooperation with Centrum Judaicum, Berlin, and Aktives Museum Faschismus und Widerstand e.V., Berlin and Gerhard-Marcks-Haus, Bremen.

until 10.01. | #2629ARTatBerlin | Luisa Catucci Gallery presents from 22nd November 2019 the exhibition Hypnagogic Atlas with artworks by the artists Dario Ghibaudo and David Hochbaum. „The most characteristic slumber, the one most appropriate to the exercise of the art.. Is the slumber which I call “the slumber with a key”… you must resolve the problem of “sleeping without sleeping”, which is the essence of the dialectics of the dream, since is a repose which walks in equilibrium on the taut and invisible wire which separates sleeping from walking“ Salvador Dali The American artist David Hochbaum and the Italian sculptor Dario Ghibaudo are both wild creators of fantastic universes born out their florid imagination and their own personal mythology and peculiar vision of world and society.  The fictive reality they create, each in his own way due drastic differences of media, style, color and composition, offer to the viewer a perspective on realms populated by fantastic creatures and marvellous animals, waltzing around imaginary towns, natural places or just conquering the room space with their presence – inviting the spectator to reflect on his/her own reality and inner journey. Masked as playful scientific catalogue the works by Dario Ghibaudo out […]

until 12.12. | #2627ARTatBerlin | Galerie mutare shows from 19th November 2019 an exhibition with paintings and graphics by the guest artist Rolf-Dieter Grass in the second room of the gallery. Rolf-Dieter Grass, born in 1951, was a member of the artists’ group “Der Karton” in Saarbrücken, whose works have claimed an art space for satire and have contributed critical marginalia to the Saarland cultural scene. He was involved in numerous joint exhibitions and artist symposia in Saarland and was awarded the 1st prize of the artist competition for the renewal of the Ludwigskirche in Saarbrücken. After a solo exhibition in Darmstadt in 1988, he was invited to a joint exhibition of the Artlantis Artists’ Circle in Bad Homburg. In 2016 and 2019 he participated with his works in the Friedenauer Ateliertour Südwestpassage, but also had solo exhibitions in Berlin. Rolf-Dieter Grass lives and works in Berlin. Since 17 November, paintings by the artist Deborah Esses have been shown in room 1 of the mutare gallery at the same time as Rolf-Dieter Grass. Vernissage: Tuesday, 19th November 2019, 7:00 pm Exhibition period: Tuesday, 19th November – Thursday, 12th December 2019 Opening hours November + December 2019: Wed – Fri 14.00 […]

until 07.12. | #2624ARTatBerlin | Galerie Z22 presents from 9th November 2019 the exhibition APOKALYPSE with artworks by the painter Eric Massholder on the occasion of the 5th anniversary of the gallery.  The apocalypse reaches Berlin-Wilmersdorf. Ring free for monetary snakes, skulls and the Antichrist. For the fifth anniversary of the Berlin gallery Z22, the German-French artist Eric Massholder presents his visions of the swan song on a society that has dedicated itself to its own vanities and that largely shifts away responsibility for the planet or an enriching peaceful coexistence. In large, intensive formats, he manifests the market criers of the present who have dedicated themselves solely to growth. Without realizing that too much property restricts personal freedom, status symbols condense life exclusively to the monetary. Lifetime is destroyed in the stupidest way. Charmed with wit! Increase your empathy! Think more! Question things! Get creative! Go ahead!! It will be an evening with unexpected ideas, a provocative implementation, special speeches and performances.

extended until 06.01. | #2621ARTatBerlin | Galerie Martin Mertens presents from 9th November 2019 the exhibition Essential Beings by the artist Flavia Pitis. The gallery Martin Mertens has already presented the work of the Romanian painter Flavia Pitis in two double solo exhibitions 2016 and 2018 together with her husband Radu Belcin. Now follows her first solo exhibition in the gallery. This new group of works, which was created for the exhibition, has already begun in 2018. While at the time Pitis was even more strongly based on the human portrait, which was superimposed by porcelain-like forms, the porcelain figures now seem to develop a life of their own and want to transform themselves into human beings. Isolated and dramatically illuminated like on a theatre stage, a Baroque scenery emerges in which the forms seem to swell out of the picture in an opulent and overloaded manner. Flavia Pitis, Melted Shine, Öl auf Leinwand, 90 x 70 cm, 2019 Flavia says so: “Essential Beings” is an attempt to convey a fleeting impression of a living material that harbors a spiritual self in a constantly changing identity. The material of the seemingly porcelain-like substance is in constant flux in accordance with […]

until 21.12. | #2618ARTatBerlin | Esther Schipper presents from 16th November 2019 the exhibition ALGO-R(H)I(Y)THMS by the artist Tomás Saraceno. Algo-r(h)i(y)thms transforms the exhibition space into a landscape of nets. In Spanish “algo” means “something”. “Rhythm” comes from the Greek rhythmos, can be equated with “movement characterized by the regulated sequence of strong and weak elements, of opposing or different conditions”. Although rhythm is both biological and inherent, theorized as evolutionary instinctive, and linked in human history to the speed of the human heartbeat, gait, and affect, our contemporary moment operates at a tempo that is artificially imposed and not intuitively perceived. Algo-r(h)i(y)thms is thus an urgent invitation to tune into our sym(bio)poetic future, the radical reciprocity of all things, alive or not, through a language of vibrations. Essentially blind, the weaving spider creates an image of the world through the vibrations it sends and receives through the web, which also serves as an organic and specialized instrument for transmitting these seismic signals. The spider/web is therefore seen as a material extension of the spider’s senses and, following some arguments, of its consciousness. By accessing this environment, the work stimulates the participants to see, touch, hear and exist for a moment […]

until 16.11. | #2615ARTatBerlin | Galerie Michael Haas presents the exhibition Gefährdende Spiele by the artist Dennis Scholl. Galerie Michael Haas is showing new paintings by Dennis Scholl (*1980). In Gefährdende Spiele (Endangering Games), Dennis Scholl sets out in search of the lost innocence of childhood. He reveals that an unspoiled youth is an illusion and that tragedy and cruelty hide behind every transfiguring memory. The artist follows this trail and makes memories visible while inviting the viewer to participate in the scenes like a “Peeping Tom”. Since the individual interpretation reveals far more about the viewer than about the artist, the images serve as a mirror for self-reflection and as a reminder for open contemplation of things. Dennis Scholl Through his art, Dennis Scholl attracted attention early on. Already during his studies at the Hochschule für bildende Künste in Hamburg, which he completed in 2007, his works were shown in major institutional exhibitions – for example in the Hamburger Kunsthalle. Since then, numerous solo and group shows have followed in national and international contexts, most recently in New York City and at the Konrad-Adenauer-Foundation in Berlin. His work is represented in public and private collections worldwide. While Scholl worked […]

extended until 21.12. | #2612ARTatBerlin | Galerie Guido W. Baudach presents from 26th October 2019 the solo exhibition Heedrahtrophia by the artist Andy Hope 1930. Monsters, Painters, Mutants The series of new paintings by Andy Hope 1930, exhibiting at Galerie Guido W. Baudach under the title HEEDRAHTROPHIA, stems from the artist’s first visit to Japan in the spring of 2018. In addition to the new impressions gained there, Hope found himself confronted by Japanese pop culture, face to face with the monsters and monster tales he had long been following. A dedicated collector of comics, films and figures from the areas of horror, supervillains and superheroes, dinosaurs and extraterrestrials, Hope attained his status and widespread international reception primarily by the manner in which he ploughed through the field of Americana, outmaneuvering the pitfalls of affirmation and anti-America criticism with an abundance of wit and a wealth of art-/historical allusion. Though a relatively late discovery, Japan must have been experienced as a kind of déjà vu. After his return, Hope took up a monster that had long held his fascination: a kaiju named Hedorah from the monster film Godzilla vs. Hedorah (Japan 1971, distributed in Germany under the title Frankensteins Kampf gegen die Teufelsmonster, […]

until 18.01. | #2609ARTatBerlin | Galerie Kornfeld shows from 22nd November 2019 the solo exhibition Les Nouveaux Constructeurs by the artist Stéphane Couturier. The exhibition “Les Nouveaux Constructeurs” will present, for the first time in Germany, photographer Stéphane Couturier’s work that resulted from his involvement with French painter Fernand Léger’s œuvre. Upon the invitation of Julie Gutierrez, curator of the Fernand Léger Museum in Biot, Stéphane Couturier worked intensely with the oeuvre of Fernand Léger, one of the masters of modern painting in early 20th-century France. Léger was particularly attentive to the radical transitions of his time. The central focus of his work was the changes people and cities went through due to machines and mass production. Drawing from the form experiments of the cubists, his body of work found its particular artistic expression, which merged the cubist avantgarde with communist engagement. Sète, Pont Sadi Carnot n°2, 2018, C-Print, 140 x 100 cm, Ed.: 5 “I became aware of the many elements that brought him closer to me–his fascination with the city, with industrial elements, with architecture, with the geometry of forms…”, comments Stéphane Couturier on his involvement with Léger’s body of work. As images of urban landscapes and industrial […]

until 21.12. | #2607ARTatBerlin | Migrant Bird Space presents from 26th October 2019 an exhibition with artworks by the artists Huang Zejian and Bu Yunyun. Two Chinese artists exploring the sensuality and inherent eroticism of everyday materials and images. Both work in a variety of media, yet base their initial approach to art on the medium of photography. Employing amorphous shapes made out of mixed materials and nylon fabric, Huang Zejian’s sculptures fathom human sexuality and the particular appeal of human limbs. He uses photographs of body parts to print on nylon textiles or satin, which he then fills with EPS Polystyrene, suing his pieces together to create disturbing installations of a surreal beauty. While these sculptures remain entirely abstract, the sexual innuendo is undeniable, making it difcult, in fact, to display parts of Huang’s work in China. To Huang, the human body is central to his work in every aspect as “it cannot hide human desires and inner conflict, it’s the only medium for sex and eroticism.” (2018) IMG_20190627_0009, 2019 © Huang Zeijan, Migrant Bird Space Bu Yunjun has a professional background in painting, yet decided to pursue his interest and talent in photography. He collects everyday scenes and […]

until 30.11. | #2601ARTatBerlin | Galerie EIGEN + ART Berlin shows from 24th October 2019 the exhibition A planets revolution by the artist Ryan Mosley. Ryan Mosley’s paintings have always been precarious, knife-edged, intuitive things, characterised by their exuberance, headlong free-wheelingness, sucking in motifs from the drifting, ever shape-shifting worlds of circus and carnival, the brawling anarchy of Dada. Rooted in figurative impulses, they revel in the bizarre, the improbable, the unpredictable and the grotesque. They are self-delighting, self-enclosed worlds of abandonment, staged performances, theatrical presentations which we willingly spectate. And behind them we have always felt the shadowy presence of all those artists who have helped to shape them, from Daumier to Kitaj, Hogarth to Degas, Manet to Picasso, Léger to Darger. Until now. His fourth solo show at Galerie EIGEN + ART marks a shift of tone and feeling. Its title, A planets revolution, nods in the direction of our political uncertainties as never before. A mood of perplexity seems to transform the romp of his heightened colours into exaggeratedly desperate throws of optimism. Ryan Mosley, Under a strange canopy, 2019, Oil on canvas, 183 x 150 cm, Photo: Jules Lister In the painting Songs for the sea […]

until 22.11. | #2598ARTatBerlin | Köppe Contemporary shows from 25th October 2019 the exhibition Fiction with works by the artists Walter Yu and Ilias Vasilos.

until 22.02. | #2595ARTatBerlin | Salongalerie Die Möwe shows from 25th October 2019 in the exhibition The Feminine Statement. Female Artists in the XXth Century. In its new exhibition “The Feminine Statement. Female Artists in the XXth Century” from 25 October 2019 to 22 February 2020, the Berlin Salon Galerie ” Die Möwe ” pays tribute to a historic event: the opening of German art academies to women 100 years ago. Because with the equal rights of women and men according to the Weimar Constitution, women could also study here from 1919 without restrictive conditions. This professional education offered them the opportunity to turn their art into a profession that would secure their livelihood and to gain public recognition – even though there were still numerous social prejudices and hurdles to a successful career. Lotte Laserstein · Damenportrait · um 1940 · Öl und Gouache · 40 x 32,5 cm For many women visual artists in Germany, the years of the Weimar Republic were a time of departure and emancipation. Thus the painters Lotte Laserstein (1898-1993), Jeanne Mammen (1890-1976) and Erna Schmidt-Caroll (1896-1964) belonged to the first generation of women who attended or taught an art academy. Johanna Schütz-Wolff (1896-1965) […]

until 14.11. | #2571ARTatBerlin | CAMERA WORK shows since 28th September 2019 the exhibition 365° by the artist Eugenio Recuenco. The exhibition includes more than 150 works from the “365°” series, which the artist completed in 2018 after several years of work. The works are presented as spectacular lightboxes, making the exhibition a visually unique experience. It is Recuenco’s second exhibition presented by CAMERA WORK after 2013. Eugenio Recuenco is represented worldwide exclusively by CAMERA WORK and is internationally regarded as one of the most creative photo artists in the field of staged photography. Eight years of work, 120 models, 300 employees and a photo artist: With “365°” Eugenio Recuenco has created an impressive series that is aesthetic, conceptual and content-wise avant-garde. “365°” invites you on a photographic journey through contemporary history. From the art of the late Middle Ages to social networks and contemporary political events, Recuenco stages world events in each of his photographs in a small microcosm. He constructs his sometimes subtle and often elaborately designed settings as scene graphics. These are bounded by a four-meter-high and two-and-a-half-meter-wide box built for the series, in which Recuenco works up “9/11” artistically, sets up Star Wars Stormtrooper, quotes Edward […]

until 18.10. | #2592ARTatBerlin | Migrant Bird Space shows from 29 September 2019 in the rooms of the H27 Gallery the exhibition GIRLS by Chinese photographer Luo Yang. Luo Yang’s GIRLS belong to a part of contemporary China that is rarely taken note of in the West. Her portraits depict an emerging Chinese youth-culture that defies imposed expectations and stereotypes – GIRLS are badass and selfaware with a supreme sense of cool, yet also insecure, vulnerable and torn. Luo Yang photographs girls around her, attempting to grasp an understanding of their lives as well as her own. Although diferent, they share same ambivalent emotions, confusions and concerns. It is in this connection that Luo finds the strength and fragility of her subject. © Luo Yang: Mao’Er, 2017 | Migrant Bird Space – Flyer Her images are bold and up front, intimate and sensitive at the same time. They explore the themes of youth and femininity, while challenging traditional beliefs about women in Chinese society. As such, Luo’ s GIRLS reflect a view on life in contemporary China that both celebrates and defies its reality.

until 01.11. | #2558ARTatBerlin | Crone Berlin currently shows the exhibition Medusa: Floating Body by the artists Tomas Kleiner and Marco Biermann. The work of Marco Biermann and Tomas Kleiner, who have been working together as a performative collective for the past five years, investigates the interaction of public and individual space in which we may act. Their performances and actions have been exhibited in institutions including Museum Abteiberg in Mönchengladbach, Kunsthalle Düsseldorf, Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Museum Morsbroich in Leverkusen, and Belvedere 21 in Vienna. The exhibition Medusa: Floating Body captures and documents their newest performance, which began on the Rhine near Düsseldorf at the end of June and will continue in the rooms of Galerie Crone in Berlin. The romantic notion of breaking out of routine and taking off for new shores inspired the artists to use Medusa: Floating Body to once again playfully engage with the public space.  The project saw them drift down the Rhine on a specially made air mattress over the course of a day, past the town of Uerding and the city of Duisburg to an unknown destination. Extensive communication with the authority for water and shipping (DLRG), the coast guard, the local regulatory agency, […]

until 02.11. | #2559ARTatBerlin | Galerie Max Hetzler presents from 27th September 2019 the solo exhibition a sort of speech by the artist Edmund de Waal in the gallery rooms Bleibtreustraße and Goethestraße. Galerie Max Hetzler is pleased to announce British artist Edmund de Waal’s second solo exhibition on view across both gallery locations in Berlin. Recognised for his delicate porcelain vessels meticulously arranged in carefully composed groups displayed in vitrines or shelves, Edmund de Waal creates his own dialogue between tradition and modernity, blank spaces and opulence, minimalism and architecture. His unique ceramic objects, coloured in subtle nuances and irregularly shaped, form the base of his installations and combine ideas of repetition, rhythm and composition with references to literature and music. In his exhibition, de Waal presents a group of new free-standing glass vitrines, each forming a thoughtful composition of porcelain, steel, gold and marble elements, installed in the large gallery space of Goethestraße. In this new body of work, de Waal continues to explore the boundaries between text and sculpture. At its centre, the exhibition contains a major new text work in which de Waal has covered a vast freestanding wall with porcelain slip and gold leaf into which […]
