Kunstverein Scotty Enterprises Berlin zu Gast in der Zentrifuge Nürnberg 04. 11. – 27. 11. 2011 Was ist Landschaft heute? In den aktuellen medialen Bildwelten ist sie mehr von Konventionen und -traditionen geprägt als von der direkten sinnlichen Wahrnehmung. Landschaft hat heute eine große intellektuelle Distanz zu überbrücken: zwischen der Moderne mit all ihren Entfremdungen, Bequemlichkeiten und Romantisierungen und dem, was Landschaft einmal war und immer noch ist: Lebens- und Bewegungsraum des Menschen. Die Ausstellung Landschaft / 2D bietet Raum zum Flanieren, für Blicke auf visualisierte Imaginationen und Wirklichkeitsausschnitte. Malereien, Objekte, Installationen, Fotos und Videos aus Berlin und Nürnberg treten in Dialog zueinander, bilden eine gemeinsame Ausstellungs-Landschaft.

Pattern & Signs in Berlin

June 10th, 2011
Pattern & Signs – A language in between
Art from Thailand, India, China, Cameroon, Bulgaria, Romania, Germany
Exhibition, presentations, performances and workshops
Kunstverein Tiergarten / Galerie Nord
Turmstraße 75 10551 Berlin

KATHARINA KOCH, UTE LEHNERT, LI LISHA, JEROME MING, VARSHA NAIR, JOANNE RICHARDSON
Pattern & Signs convey historical, cultural as well as social structures. To be aware of and reflect their correlation is a fundamental prerequisite for the liveliness and quality of human coexistence. The exhibition project “Pattern & Signs” deals with this task. It derives from a cross-generational network of artists coming from Thailand, China, India, Cameroon, Bulgaria, Romania and Germany. The artists live and work between the continents; they act “in transit”. In their works they question their state of being “in between” and reflect on an intercultural dialogue and its aesthetic means of expression against the background of their own cultural roots. After taken place at Jamuree Gallery Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok in January 2011, the project now is hosted by Kunstverein Tiergarten / Galerie Nord. In several workshops the artists work together with young people of Menzel Schule Moabit. The project is supported by Projektfonds Kulturelle Bildung Berlin. Project directors: Bärbel Kosanke-Teigler (Menzel-Oberschule), Dr. Claudia Beelitz (Kunstverein Tiergarten)
