Katja Strunz Work from Berlinische Gallery. “…Four pieces, 3 sculptural works and one work on paper, whilst the curation of the show seems balanced, the necessity of having four pieces seems perhaps doubtful. The space is rightfully dominated by two large-scale sculptural works titled ‘ Tellurische Kontraktion’ and ‘Tellurischer Riemen’. Tellurischer Kontraktion greets you on […]

Halina Kliem Work from her oeuvre. “We find here a characteristic logic, the peculiar logic of the “inside out” (‡ l’envers), of the “turnabout,”, of a continual shifting from top to bottom, from front to rear, of numerous parodies and travesties, humili- actions, profanations, comic crownings and uncrownings. Mikhail Bakhtin I have spent all my […]

Diane Simpson Work from her oeuvre. “The six pieces in the show all appear to be based on wearable items that have had three-dimensionality steam-pressed out, but that still retain a sense of volume and, additionally, assume new functional identities. A brand new work, “Collar (Pagoda),” appears to be the enlarged version of a clerical […]

Surface Poetry at Boetzelaer|Nispen. “Today, the digital screen has become the predominant surface for engaging with visual content. The texture of the digital screen, characterized by its flat surface, artificial smoothness, juxtaposition of different windows, and chromatic backlit glow, constitutes the aesthetic framework in which we perceive and act upon a large part of the […]

Yuki Kimura Work from her oeuvre. “Gluck50 is pleased to present the first solo exhibition in Italy of works by the Japanese artist Yuki Kimura. Yuki Kimura’s artistic practice is based on the medium of photography. She uses both her own and found images which she reassembles in different contexts, giving them new meaning. The […]

Walter de Maria Work from his oeuvre. “…He was best known for large-scale outdoor works that often involved simple if rather extravagant ideas or gestures: a SoHo loft filled with two feet of earth, for example, or a solid brass rod two inches in diameter and one kilometer long driven into the ground in Kassel, […]

Vettor Pisani Work from “Eroica/Antieroica” at MADRE, Naples. “Vettor Pisani figure appears to us today radically contemporary, that of a true precursor who successfully combined conceptual investigation with irony, the play of language with role playing, masking with the search for truth, major history with the chronicle of the trivial, the sacred with the profane, […]

Work from “Zelda Zonk” at Preface Gallery, Paris. “Zelda Zonk has escaped her primary identity. She has always refused to stick to a single self, contented to be chameleon-like. She wanted to be mobile, to hide and succumb to the joys of masks, disguise and role-play. 2 An exhibition of fictional artists.” – Timothée Chaillou/Preface Gallery Related […]

Mato Tannatt Work from his oeuvre. “Tannatt tends to circle complex political or sociological themes and then deliver works that are open and unstable, never unlocking the problems at their centre. For ‘Rendezvous Vous’, Tannatt reprinted the building’s notice of abandonment but, erasing the central chunk of its text, drew keyholes over it. He also […]

Olivia Erlanger Work from Material Studies. “Vivid, warm light fills the room and spreads over the desk as I sit and work at my computer. Daylight disappears slowly, burning, falling, bathing the Hudson River in washes of gold and rose. And while I am sure the sunset is spectacular, I keep my back turned, ignoring […]
