Sönke Tollkühn. Berlin – ein Platz für Tiere

„Berlin – ein Platz für Tiere“ des Fotografen Sönke Tollkühn zeigt Momentaufnahmen von Tieren in Kombination mit der Berliner Stadtarchitektur. Die Architektur von Bauwerken bewegt sich im Spannungsfeld zwischen Profanität und Faszinierendem. Die hier bildhafte, mehr interpretierende Architekturfotografie, verlangt vom Fotografen die gedankliche Auseinandersetzung mit dem jeweiligen Gebäude. Er dokumentiert und bezieht konzeptionelle Überlegungen ein. Mit den Tieraufnahmen, die Geduld, Beherrschung der Technik und viel Übung erfordern, erzählt Tollkühn Geschichten der Stadt und ihrer tierischen Bewohner immer mit einem Augenzwinkern. Form, Linie, Struktur und Muster, ein schräger Standort zur Wiedergabe von Fassade oder Seitenwänden sind mögliche Blickwinkel zur digitalen Montage der Tieraufnahmen in die Perspektive. Berlin – a place for animals by the photographer Sönke Tollkühn shows snapshots of animals combined with Berlin architecture which ranges between profanity and something fascinating. The evocative interpretation of each building challenges the photographer to look at various perspektives. He is documenting aided by conceptional approaches. In the photos, which demand patience as well as technical skills, the animals are integrated with a wink. Form, line, structure and patterns or an odd position are possible perspectives of reproducing fassades or plain walls to integrate the digital montage of the animals.

The Shipping Forecast

03 Apr 2017 – 03 Apr 2020

The Shipping forecast is broadcast daily on BBC radio. It is designed to alert seafarers to the dangers of the constantly shifting weather conditions that characterize the seas around the British Isles. These seas divide into 31 named regions which, over time, have acquired an almost liturgical familiarity. The UK itself lies at the junction of four great wind systems: Polar Maritime, Polar Continental, Tropical Maritime and Arctic. These systems are the invisible guiding hand governing the UK’s sea conditions. Their unseen collision is the reason seas can be wildly different between one region and another, even when those regions are adjacent, and even at different times on the same day. This relentless mutability can be seen as a metaphor for the UK itself where the cultural landmass is continually being shaped, reformed and re-aligned by the forces of rapid and striking change. In this work Greene explores our response to this change and how that response is conditioned by deeper ideas about nationhood and identity. Each sea region is given its own, essentially arbitrary, Union Jack variant, underlining the tangential relationship between geography and culture. The fixed graphic identity of national flags can be seen as an oddly successful attempt to bond these two essentially disparate ideas. In this work Greene explores the mysterious power the UK landmass has to evoke profound feelings about, nationality, patriotism, identity and belonging, and the catalytic role the Union Jack flag has in triggering these thoughts and ideas. An examination of this reflex response is a defining feature of this work. Paul Greene 2016

Aleksandra Koneva. Fucking Russian Soul

Dies ist keine politische Ausstellung, obwohl sie die Hintergründe einer Mentalität befragt. Was ist das: „die russische Seele?“ - ist sie auch ein Exportprodukt wie Wodka, Kaviar oder der Don Kosaken Chor? Möglich, dass sie ein Erbe der großen russischen Schriftsteller und Dichter wie von Puschkin, Leskow, Gogol, Dostojewski, Nekrassow und Jessenin ist. Denn sie haben die Charaktere und Handlungen geschaffen und die bis dahin unbekannte russische Melancholie mit all ihre Paradoxien und Extremen beschrieben. Die Künstlerin Aleksandra Koneva liebt es in ihren Werken zu spielen. Sie spielt mit den Sinnen, mit Gefühlen, mit Gegenständen und mit unterschiedlichen Materialien. In der Serie „Blini à la carte“ bearbeitet Koneva den Blin (Pfannkuchen), eine aus Osteuropa stammende Teigspeise als Thema. In „Dostojevski und Disney II“ verrät schon der Titel der Serie, dass es um die dunkle Welt des russischen Schriftstellers und das bunte Reich des amerikanischen Films geht. Die berühmten Disney Figuren haben Anfang der 80er Jahre einen Weg durch den eisernen Vorhang gefunden. In Konevas Kunst sind sie seitdem eine Art begleitende Versuchsobjekte. In ihren analogen s/w Fotografien siedelt sie die Disney Figuren in ihrer Heimatstadt Petersburg an, um zu sehen wie sie auf harte soziale Bedingungen, Armut und Kälte reagieren. In diesem „Russifizierungsprozess“ haben sie sichtlich an Glanz und Glamour verloren, sie sind krank, alt und obdachlos geworden, aber sie haben überlebt. Die aus Holzplatten geschnittenen übermannsgroßen Figuren sind mit Materialien bekleidet, die daran erinnern, wie in sozialistischen Zeiten defekte Materialien nicht einfach weggeworfen wurden, sondern eine andere Verwendung fanden. Konevas Objekte und Fotografien verkörpern ein Stück Kulturgeschichte, in der wertvolle und kitschige, anspruchsvolle und bizarre Dinge nebeneinander stehen. This is not a political exhibition, although it examines what underlies a mentality. What is this thing, »the Russian soul«? – is it also an export product like vodka, caviar, or the Don Cossack choir? Maybe it’s a legacy of the great Russian writers and poets like Pushkin, Leskov, Gogol, Dostoyevsky, Nekrassov, and Jessenin. Because they created the characters and plots and described the formerly unknown Russian melancholy, with all its paradoxes and extremes. The artist Aleksandra Koneva loves to play in her works. She plays with the senses, with feelings, with objects and various materials. In the series »Blini à la carte«, Koneva works with the theme of the blin, a thin pancake prepared in Eastern Europe. In »Dostoyevsky and Disney II«, the series title already reveals the focus on the dark world of the Russian author and the colorful realm of American film. The famous Disney figures found a path through the Iron Curtain at the beginning of the 1980s. In Koneva’s art, they have been a kind of constant experimental objects. In her analog black-and-white photos, she settles the Disney figures in her home city, Petersburg, to see how they react to the harsh social conditions, poverty, and cold. In this »Russification process«, they have visibly lost their glow and glamour; they have grown ill, old, and homeless, but they have survived. The larger-than-life-sized figures cut from wooden panels are covered with materials that remind us how, in socialist times, defective materials were not simply thrown away, but put to other uses. Koneva’s objects and photographs embody a piece of cultural history that juxtaposes the valuable and the kitschy, the sublime and the bizarre.

Lupe Godoy. Botánica

Die spanische Künstlerin Lupe Godoy widmet sich in ihrem Werk besonders der Collage. Das Material ihrer Arbeiten stammt aus verschiedensten Quellen, wie beispielsweise aus Kunst-, Mode- oder Lifestyle-Magazinen. Die Ausschnitte vermischt sie mit japanischer Tusche und Farbe. Die Materialität des Papiers, sein Alterungsprozess und die Druckqualität spielen eine zentrale Rolle für ihre künstlerischen Entscheidungen, Serien und Erzählungen. Lupe Godoy´s Collagen aus (re-) produzierten Fotografien thematisieren Überfluss, Kunstgeschichte, Geschlechterrollen und Ökologie. Sie hinterfragen unsere Vorstellungen von Schönheit, unser Bild des Anderen und des Fremden. The Spanish artist Lupe Godoy, based in Berlin, focuses in her work mainly on Collage. The material of her work comes from a variety of sources, such as art, fashion outdoors and lifestyle magazines. The cut-outs are mixed with Japanese ink and acrylic paint. The materiality of the paper, its aging process and the print quality play a central role for her artistic decisions and narrations. Lupe Godoy's collages of recycled photographs focus on abundance, art history, gender roles and ecology. They question our notions of beauty and our image of the other.

Edina Hadzic Paintings

Affektion

22 Jul 2016

Edina Hadzic, eine Kunst mit der Idee, Bilder von ästhetischem Charakter für das Gemüt zu zeigen - mit der "Leidenschaft der Seele" eines künstlerischen Beobachters. Es geht um die stille Entsagung, den unsichtbaren, selbst geschürten Verdruss und bittersüßen Schmerz, der unserer individuellen Existenz widerfährt. So wandelt sich die Stimmung zur bleibenden Grundlage unserer Auffassung des Lebens. Edina Hadzic, art with the idea of showing pictures of aesthetic character of mind - with an artistic observer’s “passion of the soul”. It’s about silent renunciation, the invisible, self-induced bitter-sweet pain, which is contrary to our individual existence. Thus the mood changes to the permanent basis on our conception of life.

Roger König Art

exhibition of Roger König contemporary art 2016

Roger König – abstraction in acrylic You have a fondness for contemporary art? You are on the search for an exclusive piece of art which underlines your individuality? Then experience through the pictures by Roger König, how art triggers emotions. It casts a spell on the viewer, is part of your own home and thus of your entire life. The works of the artist living in Dessau are equally unique and tension-filled. Thereby, he always draws abstractly and by doing so, he leaves enough room for the most diverse personal associations or emotions. Haptical surfaces are characteristic for the work of König, just as elaborately composed colors are. Off-white shades and warm earthy tones combined with luscious gold are standing next to cool nuances of grey and blue. Also powerful emphasizes in a luscious red can be found in his pictures. They integrate into their environment harmonically without being solely decorative. Often, there are lines, scratches or breaks in the surface, as if the canvas had been covered with a fair patina. More subtle strokes in the color bring graphic characters to mind, color gradients natural phenomena, divided canvasses the contrast which is immanent in everything: the principle of yin and yang. König combines modern painting with acrylic with old techniques and in this way, he connects contemporary art with tradition. The natural clay color bestows the pictures with a completely special dim texture which stands in an exciting contrast with the delicate luster of the acrylic color. The features of the clay color allow a more intensive treatment of the surface. The artist does not work entirely non-representational, but includes figurative elements into his pictures as well indeed: his portraits and representations of figures bridge between abstraction and figuration. Also elements from the nature, like trunks, can be identified. However, through the abstracting manner of painting, they stay vague and must be read like universal codes. In this case as well, it is up to the viewer what he or she would like to see. In each moment, new things can be discovered in the picture, it changes its meaning: depending on the light, the time of the day or on your own personal mood. Enrich your flat, your office, your daily environment with an abstract picture by Roger König. Take your time to have a look around in the gallery, discover your favorite piece and acquire your picture exclusively from the artist. The canvasses are created in a way so that you can hang them up directly. The high quality also becomes visible through the fact that the edges are always painted. Alongside your picture, you will receive a certificate which proves its authenticity, of course. Every canvas is unique, every single one is individual – just like you are.

Anthony Dodds. Hoi Polloi

Anthony Dodds Poträtfotografie eröffnet einen natürlichen Blick auf die Persönlichkeit und den Charakter von Personen. Er schafft Porträts, die intim und nah, zugleich unaufdringlich und distanziert sind und Identität offenbaren. Indem er zurücktritt, gibt er den Personen Raum für Stimmungen, in denen sie sich wohlfühlen und sich selbst repräsentieren. Die Porträtserie ‘Hoi Polloi’ (griech. „die Vielen“) zeigt Generationen, Ethnien, Nationalitäten und Religionen der durchmischten Gemeinschaft im bevölkerten Canggu/Bali. Die vielen einzigartigen Gesichter der Menschen – in der großen Masse. Anthony Dodds flicks the latches off our personal shutters, to peer behind the barriers we unconsciously put up. By stepping back and giving his subjects space to feel comfortable, to be genuine, he captures moments that reflect true personality. He creates portraits that are intimate, but at the same time feel distant, that reveal identity, without being intrusive. The ‘Hoi Polloi’ (greek, the many) portraiture series holds a mirror up to the many ages, ethnicities, nationalities and religions who make up the eclectic community in Canggu,Bali. The many unique faces – in a big mass.

INNER SOUND

"Looking out through my windows to the sea on the north-west coast of Scotland, it often feels like I’m the only witness to an immense spectacle of unfathomable drama and mystery. This experience has taken me over and become a powerful, if not dominating, influence on my creative impulses – adding another vital strand to my work. Since 2008, when we restored the old stone barn which is now used as my studio, I have been building up a new body of work. It began with a series of watercolours and has now moved into oils - my attempt to find an equivalent in paint for the experience of looking out to the seas of the Inner Sound and the Minch."

Tales of New York/Simon & Garfunkel

An exhibition inspired by Simon & Garfunkel collect their CD "Tales of New York" which was released in March 2000. This is a slightly odd collection of tunes, since it appeals to a small audience that wants to listen to more than "The Best" and who want to immerse themselves in many of the tunes you rarely hear. This disc contains almost everything that the duo recorded.
