Abstract Narratives. A Selection from the Collection of the Central Bank of Hungary (MNB)
Fridman Gallery NYC | 19.10.2024-16.11.2024
Fridman Gallery is honored to present an exhibition of selected works from the collection of the Central Bank of Hungary (Magyar Nemzeti Bank, MNB), many of which are shown in the United States for the first time.
Among the artistic trends of the twentieth century, abstraction is notable for its ability to continually reinvent itself. It has been enriched by various inspirations, from ecology to design, from science to psychology; its transformations follow changes in our living conditions and in our worldview. Moreover, the meaning we end up ascribing to a work of abstract art is also influenced by our knowledge of the local context specific to the artist.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, abstraction ushered in the new era of modernism, reinventing painting and sculpture to break with traditions of representation. In expressing the technological and social changes of the time, it attempted to create a universal language of cross-cultural understanding, yet always carrying within it local connotations. Abstract Narratives focuses on this phenomenon by presenting abstract artists from a specific part of the world, whose unique approaches raise questions concerning historiography and regionality of art.
The early development of Hungarian abstraction was influenced by artists with international reach, such as László Moholy-Nagy, Lajos Kassák and György Kepes, who emigrated before or soon after the Second World War. After the communist takeover of Hungary in 1948, abstraction was branded imperialist, bourgeois and anti-working-class. In this context, from the 1960s on, abstraction in Hungary (and other Soviet-bloc countries) was not merely a counterpoint to figuration of social realism, but also a symbol of political resistance and freedom of expression. While adopting international stylistic characteristics like gesture and color-field painting, Hungarian abstraction was also searching for its social, architectural and design role in the local visual culture. Rooted in Kassák’s interest in constructivism and the pure compositions of Moholy-Nagy, the abstract movement was connected with pure forms, clear colors, hard edges and surfaces with unseen brushstrokes.
The 1980s and the fall of the iron curtain opened the door to new experiments. Even so, the “revival” of the genre did not arrive until the first years of the new millennium, when artists developed new ideas, methods and approaches centered on developments in the media, the internet, digital image editing, graphic computer programs and globalism. In Eastern Europe, the generations who witnessed the Second World War, the communist regime, its unexpected end, and the new, wild capitalism of the 1990s, react differently to new global trends and styles than the younger generations. Artists active today express themselves on a new platform, where technical and formal innovations can be easily compared and distributed through public media. But deep inside their forms and ways of expression still lie personal narratives –– keys to understanding their choice of concepts and methods. Abstract Narratives intends to break down rigid borders of judgment, accepting the fact that abstraction is a global language expressing creativity in borderless frames through personal approaches which have historical, theoretical, and, sometimes, ideological backgrounds.

Nedko Solakov @ National Gallery Bulgaria | 31.05.2024-12.01.2025
Nedko Solakov
A Cornered (Future) Solo Show #4
National Gallery Bulgaria | 31.05.2024-12.01.2025
Nedko Solakov, who lives in Sofia, is one of the most renowned artists of his generation. He has an impressive professional biography with over 100 solo exhibitions in illustrious museums across Europe, America, and Asia. He has also had long-standing collaborations with prestigious international galleries and has participated in numerous international biennales such as Istanbul, Sydney, Venice, New Orleans, Tirana, Sharjah, Riga, Kathmandu, Moscow, Seville, Sao Paulo, Yekaterinburg, and Thessaloniki, among others. Additionally, he has been part of group exhibitions curated by visionary curators.
Notably, he is the only artist living in Bulgaria who has represented the country at the Biennale di Venezia and has been also included three times in its main curatorial project. In 2007, he received an “Honorable Mention to an artist exhibited in the central international exhibition” at the 52nd Biennale. Nedko Solakov has also twice participated in the world’s most prestigious contemporary art exhibition, Dokumenta in Kassel.
At the core of Nedko Solakov’s immense success is his art’s ability to resonate with a diverse spectrum of viewers. His stories resonate with all, from sophisticated curators to those who find themselves in museums by chance. His visual language is a dynamic ‘conversation’ between drawing, painting, objects, space, and almost always text – narrative, description, commentary, and word games. His stories themselves are a kind of encyclopedia of the present time – art and artists, nature in all its diversity, current politics, social issues, and the heroes of the day, all woven together by the author with a wealth of emotion and humor, often with self-irony.
The project “A Cornered Solo Show” began back in 2021, when the artist approached directors and chief curators of well-known museums with the request to provide him with an “insignificant” corner in their buildings – a corner that has never been used for exhibitions, but which the public has access to.
So far, three “corners” have been realized in major European museums: #1 at MUDAM – the Grand-Duke Jean Museum of Modern Art in Luxembourg (2021), #2 at MAXXI – the National Museum of Art of the Twenty-First Century in Rome (2022), and at the Belvedere in Vienna, which is hosting the “Cornered Solo Show #3 (with Charles Escher as my artistic conscience),” until June 19 this year.
All three exhibitions, united by an unusual, strange, previously unused corner space, tell completely different stories created specifically for their context.
At the National Gallery, in such a previously unused “new,” albeit obvious and easily accessible space in the Palace, “A Cornered (Future) Solo Show #4” tells the imaginary story of a humble court painter and his friend, a tiny mouse, who are living under the staircase of the palace.

A Cornered Solo Show #5
Ludwig Museum Budapest | 17.10.2024-29.6.2025
The Ludwig Museum – Museum of Contemporary Art is thrilled to present Nedko Solakov’s humorous, site-specific installation, located in the museum’s lobby, next to the cloakroom. In this work, Solakov explores the idea of an artist who seeks to view the world from a radically different perspective—literally by turning himself upside down to shift his viewpoint.
A Cornered Solo Show #5 is being presented in celebration of the museum’s 35th anniversary and the 30th anniversary of Solakov’s solo exhibition, The Collector of Art. The exhibition also marks the Ludwig Foundation's recent acquisition of 12 drawings by Solakov, entitled Correctness (2021). As part of this event, the artist will generously donate A Cornered Solo Show #5 to the museum, along with three additional drawings titled Bad Moves (2023).
About the series
The project, titled A Cornered Solo Show, began in 2021 when Solakov proposed the directors and curators of leading museums to offer him an “insignificant” corner of their institution—outside of the typical exhibition spaces, yet still accessible to the public. To date, four installations have been staged in major European museums, each uniquely tailored to the specific qualities of the chosen corner: #1 MUDAM – The Contemporary Art Museum of Luxembourg (2021) #2 MAXXI – National Museum of 21st Century Art, Rome (2022) #3 Upper Belvedere, Vienna (2023–2024) #4 National Gallery, The Palace, Sofia (2024)

Spy on Me #5 – Enter: AI | HAU Festival
Hebbel am Ufer, Berlin
Die fünfte Festivalausgabe von “Spy on Me” gibt verschiedenen Verbindungen zwischen Künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) mit dem Menschen eine Bühne. Trotz oder gerade wegen des apokalyptisch geführten Diskurses über KI lohnt es sich, darüber nachzudenken und herauszufinden, was wir (noch) in der Hand haben, um unsere Beziehung zur Technologie aktiv zu gestalten.
Die international eingeladenen Künstler*Innen suchen nach körperlichen und verbalen Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten für mathematische Prozesse, die den KI-Systemen zu Grunde liegen. Dabei betreten KIs sowohl sichtbar als auch unsichtbar die Bühne. Sie setzen sich in Beziehung mit dem Publikum und es entstehen gemeinsame Sprachen und Räume. So präsentieren die Künstler*innen performative Übersetzungen für die Kommunikation mit Technologie, immer im Bewusstsein der Leerstellen und Gefahren, die damit einhergehen. Es entsteht ein Austausch zwischen Mensch und Maschine, der die Technologie für das Publikum zugänglich macht. Eine Strategie, die wir auch in unserem KI-gestützten Alltag erfahren.

Camila Sposati @ HOAST, Vienna | 18.10.2024 - 03.11.2024
Coal
HOAST, Vienna
Solo exhibition
Opening: October 18, 7pm
The process of reading music relies on a structure that materializes the experience of listening. Musical notation serves this role, where lines and spaces symbolize different notes. The instrument becomes both the interpreter and transmitter of this intricate mental creation.
Since 2015, Camila Sposati has created instruments that invert this process, where the sound itself becomes the instrument. These works have been exhibited in venues such as Kunsthalle Wien, the Museum für Angewandte Kunst (MAK), and Lombardi Kargl.
Her piece Coal Score, shown at HOAST, reflects the materialization of sound and its material source—coal. By altering the traditional rules of musical composition, Sposati preserves the essence of sound while exploring how imagination can shape it. Her work invites reflection on coal as a natural resource and the challenges of energy distribution.

Wende Museum, Culver City, USA | 13.10.2024-19.10.2025
In recent decades, technological advances have supercharged surveillance. Online, personal data are automatically collected and analyzed on a mass scale. Algorithms watch, listen, track, and identify people, complementing and sometimes replacing human eyes and ears. Powerful combinations of surveillance software and hardware, such as surveillance cameras outfitted with real-time facial recognition, are conquering public spaces. These technologies are often misleadingly presented as though they were pure innovation and have no history.

“you you” tends to jam the visual and mental process
and to reduce language to simple “bits” of information
and make immediately clear the asymptote of alienation
“you” also means i, i have no alternatives, i save myself in my own hysteria, with the unrepeatable gesture of writing myself by hand
- “You You,” Ketty La Rocca, 1972
In one of her poesia visiva from 1972, artist Ketty La Rocca set forth a kind of mission statement for the work she would develop in the decade to come, executing a simple, but effective violence on the linguistic structures that determined her environment. In You You, a ten-part work from the same year as the poem, the artist juxtaposed photocopies of hands and their “reductions,” abstracted contours of the mechanically produced images. She then labeled multiple regions of this imperfect cartography “You” in a willful act of both alienation and inclusion.
This work serves as the point of departure for this group exhibition, organized by Kate Sutton as part of the CuratedBy festival. In the impulse essay for this year’s edition, Nuit Banai embraces the partiality of archives as “both a condition for violence and an impulse for hope.” As a theme, “Untold Narratives” encourages a correction of the increasing polarity of our times by opening the field to new voices. However, to truly counter this partiality, we must recognize that these biases also determine what is considered legible. In other words, some narratives have remained “untold” not just because of who is telling them or under what circumstances, but because we have not been trained to recognize them as narratives.
The artists gathered in the exhibition You You follow La Rocca’s lead in proposing idiosyncratic means for assembling or interpreting archives of their everyday experiences, allowing form and technique to open up new methods for conveying information. For artists like Tenzing Dakpa, whose photographs document life in his family’s hotel, this is a question of playing against visual expectations. For others, like Gabriele Beveridge, Rosa Rendl or David Fesl, it is a matter of offering alternative interpretations of common objects. Mario Mu and Doris Guo experiment with the technologies of image-making, from drones to home-made projectors. Mercedes Mangrané recasts intimate and seemingly incidental moments through watercolor and oil on canvas, while Vlatka Horvat and Katrina Daschner offer a witty rescripting of the world around them through collage and assemblage. Together these works introduce tiny frictions into the gallery space, conjuring the “asymptote of alienation”—an estrangement that is simultaneously an affirmation—that La Rocca mentions in her poem.

Agnieszka Polska – Flowers on the Sun
21 Sep 2024 - 12 Jan 2025
The first solo exhibition of Berlin-based Polish artist Agnieszka Polska in Belgium, Flowers on the Sun, features a selection of recent works, including her latest film, The Book of Flowers (2023), created with the assistance of AI-powered tools. The artist initially used stop-motion animation footage of flowers from the 1950s, which was then transformed into AI-generated imagery.
Based on speculative scenarios blended with elements of science fiction, the exhibition highlights issues related to the relationship of humans, non-humans and technology, posing urgent questions about our perception of time and history. Braudel’s Clock ongoing series reflects on the idea of unified time as a social construct, and the world as a complex set of structures evolving at various speeds. In her work Polska also reflects on the individual’s position in the contemporary world.
During her art studies, Agnieszka Polska began creating animations using traditional techniques such as glass table animation. Later, she developed an interest in digital animation and the immersive qualities of the images she creates. Various storytelling formats are crucial to her films. She explores these narratives not only in video works but also in other mediums such as feature film and theater performance. These different forms naturally extend her artistic practice.
For a while, she was interested in the speculative history of avant-garde movements, but now she tends to draw upon stories and inspirations related to planetary socio-technological systems, global changes and contemporary crises. Her influences include visual culture and science fiction works by authors such as Stanisław Lem, Ursula K. Le Guin, and Brian Catling, among others.
Imagination plays a significant role in Agnieszka Polska’s work. Her creations, which blend the realism of images with phantasmagorical visions, often result in a humorous mix of irony and melancholy. The aesthetics of documentary merge with fiction in her films. Polska creates her works with meticulous attention to detail, consciously shaping the structure of her films. She writes scripts with the cinematic gaze and viewer engagement in mind, making the audience an integral part of the experience. Alongside the sophisticated and highly refined visuals, the sound design and the hypnotic voice of the narrator play crucial roles. In The New Sun (2017), a star with the face of a child engages in an emotional monologue with the viewer.
In her recent projects, she hints at a future of filmmaking that may shift towards world-building rather than traditional storytelling.

Nós — Arte & Ciência por Mulheres
Sesc Interlagos, São Paulo
August 22., 2024 - March 30., 2025
From August 22, 2024 to March 30, 2025, Sesc Interlagos will host the exhibition "We - Art & Science by Women", which highlights the trajectory of women as producers and maintainers of knowledge in the scientific, intellectual and artistic fields.
The exhibition covers historical scenarios ranging from ancestral wisdom to the growing presence of women in scientific institutions. The narrative reveals women's ongoing struggle for a more equal society, where everyone has full access to political, economic and social rights.
The exhibition features accessibility resources, such as scripts and videos with audio description and video-libras.
"Nós - Arte & Ciência por Mulheres" (We - Art & Science for Women) is organized by Sesc São Paulo, conceived by Estúdio M'Baraká, and has the support of collections from USP's Zoology Museum, the Indian Museum (FUNAI), the Earth Sciences Museum / CPRM, the Butantan Institute and documentation from institutions such as Fiocruz, the National Museum, the Roberto Burle Marx Site and the National Library, among others.

Reversed Objects
1.9.2024 - 5.1.2025 | Ludwig Múzeum, Budapest
The exhibition Reversed Objects raises a number of questions ranging from the status of objects as either mere things or artworks to the functioning of art institutions, while touching on various themes and disciplines. Some of these questions may sound rather banal. American art philosopher Arthur C. Danto analyses the following problem: if one enters a room full of objects, can one tell at a glance which are works of art and which are mere real things? Danto argues that even if we do not necessarily have a precise definition of what art is, we are able to tell artworks from everyday objects.

Mark Dion @ Bundeskunsthalle Bonn, September 8th
Delirious Toys
September 8, 2024 - January 5, 2025 | Bundeskunsthalle Bonn
For the 2023 art autumn, the US artist Mark Dion has created a work of art from objects in the toy collection of the Stadtmuseum Berlin, which will first be on display at the Museum Nikolaikirche in Berlin. With hundreds of exhibits, his installations not only transcend space and time, but also take a critical look at children's toys themselves.
For the exhibition, Mark Dion spent months researching the collection of around 70,000 objects, one of the largest in Germany. The result is a kind of labyrinth of board games; a pyramid of animals, a circuit with an imaginary race between vehicles of all kinds and other installations. Dolls, military toys and a “poison cabinet” with borderline or cross-border toys are also on display in the exhibition, which is accompanied by a 36-page brochure (included in the admission price).
Since the late 1980s, Mark Dion has been intensively concerned with the question of how knowledge is created and passed on in museums, always with an alert eye for systems of exploitation and oppression. After all, toys, which are mostly designed by adults for children, always convey ideas about people and their world. In dealing with toys, children practise certain role models, and toys are used to teach them specific themes or ideologies.

"Hast du gut geschlafen?" ist eine Frage, die man sich oft stellt. Eine grundlegende Frage, bei der die Antwort des Befragten sofort einen Einblick in die Wachheit, die Stimmung und die Beziehungsfähigkeit der betreffenden Person gibt. Schlaf ist, wie Essen und Trinken, ein Grundbedürfnis des Lebens. Wöchentlich werden Zeitschriften mit Tipps und Tricks für einen erholsamen Schlaf gefüllt, wobei die goldene Regel der Ruhe, Sauberkeit und Regelmäßigkeit als ideale Form der Schlafhygiene immer wieder auftaucht. Ein Drittel der Zeit verbringt der Mensch im Schlaf: eine Situation, in der wir eine Bewusstseinsverminderung erleben, die zu einem Mangel an Kontakt mit der Außenwelt führt. Unser Körper und unser Geist kommen zur Ruhe. Wir geben uns ihm hin, verletzlich und auf uns selbst zurückgeworfen. Warum wir schlafen, ist noch immer ein ungelöstes Rätsel. Zelluläre Reparaturprozesse, Energieerhaltung, Lernen und Aufzeichnung von Erinnerungen sind die drei Hauptpfeiler der derzeitigen Theorien.
WACHEN SCHLAFEN TRÄUMEN WIEDERHOLEN
Die Familienausstellung Schlafen! nimmt Sie mit auf eine kleine Entdeckungsreise in das weite Reich des Schlafs und des Traums, und zwar mit den Augen von rund 50 bildenden Künstlern und Designern. Hier regiert für einen Moment eine andere Zeit. Man durchläuft die vier Schlafstadien vom Schlummer über den Leichtschlaf bis zum Tiefschlaf und (schlaf)wandert über den Traum in die große Halle, wo das Bett im Mittelpunkt steht. Oder Sie machen die Umwege über Schlaf/Wach, denn längst nicht jeder hat einen idealen Schlafzyklus. Stress und Ängste führen oft zu Schlaflosigkeit und Schlafproblemen. Wenn Sie möchten, können Sie einen zweiten Rundgang zu einem zweiten Schlafzyklus machen, bis Sie die Ausstellung hoffentlich völlig erfrischt verlassen!

CLUBS der ZUKUNFT – Gemeinsame Räume in Übergangsgesellschaften – ist eine Ausstellung an zwei Orten mit einem Vortragsprogramm und Workshops an verschiedenen Standorten rund um den Alexanderplatz im Zentrum Berlins.
CLUBS der ZUKUNFT nimmt gemeinschaftliche Räume weltweit, insbesondere Kulturhäuser in Europa und der DDR, als Ausgangspunkt und eröffnet einen Reflexionsraum zu aktuellen Projekten des Gemeinschaftlichen, des Commoning und der Reform. Das Projekt findet in einer Zeit des Wandels statt, in der kollaborative Praktiken, alternative Ökonomien, neue Netzwerke sowie gemeinsame zivile Räume und Gesellschaften neu erprobt und ausgehandelt werden.
Anlass für das Projekt war eine Recherche über die rund 1800 Kulturhäuser in der ehemaligen DDR, von denen zwei Drittel nach der Wende geschlossen wurden. Bis heute klafft hier eine Lücke, die gerade von rechten Gruppen ausgenutzt wird.
Die Ausstellungen im Kunstverein am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz und im Haus der Statistik (OTTO-Halle) im Sommer/Herbst 2024 sind raum-zeitlich verschränkt und präsentieren eine erste Sammlung, die in Zukunft am weiteren Orten Osteuropas und der Welt fortlaufend ergänzt und gezeigt werden soll.
Mehrere Ebenen agieren parallel und spannen visuell-poetisch-diskursive Bögen zwischen unterschiedlichen Projekten. Dabei werden Bezüge zu historischen Kulturhäusern in Osteuropa hergestellt, so bei Andreas Fogarasis Projekt Kultur und Freizeit zu Kultur- und Bildungshäuser in Budapest und bei Enlightenment, Culture, Leisure: Houses of Culture in Czechoslovakia von Oskar Helcel & Martin Netočný.

In the exhibition and the eponymous artist’s book, My Last Will, 32 contemporary, international artists and artist groups respond to the question “What remains?”. They individually explore their legacy and try, each in their own way, to capture the core of what makes up their goals and interests with a central statement or a paradigmatic work. In doing so, they question their presumed significance for a future they will no longer experience and whose measures of value are still completely unknown to them.
“What remains?” is a question that gains a special topicality against the backdrop of the pandemic and a war in Europe, and the associated change in perspective and values.
The artists’ examination is designed as a free, open-ended experiment. The starting point for the engagement with the question is the artist book My Last Will, in which specially developed text, collage, and image contributions from the participants are collected. Five commissioned works were also created in the context of the exhibition.

Andreas Fogarasi @ Olomouc Museum of Art. SEFO TRIENNIAL 2024. MOMENTS (EXHIBITION)
Exhibition Moments

curators: Martina Mertová, Martin Fišr, Jakub Frank in cooperation with the curators of the Olomouc Museum of Art: Barbora Kundračíková, Ladislav Daněk, Šárka Belšíková, Štěpánka Bieleszová, Klára Jeništová, Miroslav Kindl, Gina Renotière
The SEFO 2024 Triennial is a continuation of the first edition, which took place in 2021 and was subtitled UNIVERSUM. Its aim was to search for and examine possible connections and fixed points in the structure of the world we live in. The general validity of the temporal and spatial dimension of UNIVERSUM is concretised in the SEFO 2024 Triennial, whereby time and space are grasped through art-historical categories. We observe art, architecture, and their environments in real time, but with an emphasis on the modes of historicity and interpretive frameworks that are, or have been, attributed to them.
The timeline in retrospect and in prospects for the future offers many MOMENTS when the fixed points that are chosen, analysed, and named lose their validity and stability, when they undergo a change of perception, acceptance, or even crisis. The objects we focus on in the SEFO 2024 Triennial are represented by a set of terms borrowed from the art historian, theorist, and curator Octavian Eşanu. His triad Monument-Document-Mockument is adapted and measured in the Triennial concept by the current concept of the moment.
MOMENTS do not represent only impermanent points on the timeline for us, they also allow us to explore and compare experiences, long processes, and critical turns. The Triennial wants to work with those moments when we touch our own history and memory and when we construct their image through art and architecture.
MONUMENTS, in the Triennial concept, represent the supposed certainties of the past and the present. Let us imagine memorials, monuments, and entire protected complexes as products of social agreements or historical constructs, let us examine objects that are worthy and unworthy of protection, tangible and intangible, materialised memory and its care or lack thereof.
The tools we use to systematise the knowledge of memory (and at this point we touch directly on the essence of the organising institution) are covered by the term DOCUMENT.
The instrument of the experiment is MOCKUMENT, which introduces mystification or irony into the interpretive processes, questioning myths based on the reality of previously unambiguous facts.

Blind Date
The Maximilian and Agathe Weishaupt Collection in Dialogue with the Liaunig Collection
April 28 - October 31, 2024 | Museum Liaunig, Neuhaus
In the main exhibition ‘BLIND DATE - The Maximilian and Agathe Weishaupt Collection in dialogue with the Liaunig Collection’, curators Alexandra Schantl and Franziska Straubinger present geometric-constructivist art in its diverse, transnational and cross-generational forms.
In the exhibition, works from the Liaunig Collection meet works from the Munich collection of Maximilian and Agathe Weishaupt. The couple of the same name focussed their collection on art after 1945, and while they initially mainly collected concrete-constructivist positions, this view has broadened over the years, so that the collection now also includes a wide range of non-objective contemporary art from Germany and abroad.
The selection of works was based on the largest overlap between the two collections according to thematic aspects, which have always represented central issues of abstract art, namely colour, form, light, space and material and their multifaceted interactions.
Liddy Scheffknecht @ Paris Gallery weekend, May 24 - july 13
NOW | Solo Show
opening Sunday 26/05/2024, 2pm-7pm
in the presence of the artist
We live in a present and a society that seeks to shorten every activity. Speed dating is common, fast food is consumed, and a nap should be enough for recovery. Liddy Scheffknecht, within the exhibition NOW, deals with cyclical events that cannot be accelerated. The artistic materials and tools she uses are sunlight and the rotation of the Earth. Using a mask attached to a window, the sunlight is sculpted into a specific form. The resulting light spot is constantly moving within the space, briefly connecting to an object in the room at a given moment. The movement of the sunlight reflection and the moments of this journey are captured through photographs and videos. In other works, a light spot in the form of writing moves across paper and is captured in drawings, or manifests in the appearance of sculptures.

New Presentation of the Collection of Contemporary Art
August 10, 2023 - August 31, 2025 | Museum Ludwig Köln
The Museum Ludwig collection includes the most important artists of the twentieth century and contemporary art. The works of modernism and art from 1945 to 1970 are arranged chronologically from the uppermost to the middle floor. The contemporary art in the stairwell and on the basement level forms the backbone and foundation of the museum, looking into the past and the future. At the same time, the collection presents the diverse media and conceptual manifestations of contemporary art, which do not follow a firmly established canon and cannot be categorized into styles.
Every two years the Museum Ludwig presents a new selection of contemporary art from its collection. This edition, running from August 10, 2023 till August 31, 2025, will focus on different concepts of time and ways in which artists handle the topic in their work. Many artists draw attention to the fact that art is experienced in the present, while also questioning memory, remembrance, and historiography. The presentation is framed by “value of time” as a concept—a socially determined value on which abstract, quantifiable time is based.
The starting point is Walter Benjamin’s haunting image from 1940 of the “angel of history,” with which he described the relationship between past, present, and future. This established the concept of a critical historiography that originates from economic parameters. Various facets of this concept are reflected by the exhibited works, in which temporality takes effect, the past is reflected in its relationship to the present, and future events are anticipated.

Extraits de la collection d´Antoine Galbert
March 8 - July 7, 2024 | Musée d´art contemporain Lyon
After Une histoire de famille, Collection(s) Robelin in 2022, the first ever exhibition at the macLYON dedicated to a private collection, the museum has invited collector Antoine de Galbert to exhibit a large selection of works from his personal collection over an entire floor of the museum.
Originally from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, Antoine de Galbert has been working for numerous years to promote and support contemporary art, mainly through the foundation he established in 2003. He was also the founder and president of La Maison rouge, an exhibition space whose artistic programme marked the Parisian arts scene between 2004 and 2018. For over thirty years, Antoine de Galbert has been collecting contemporary art with a strong focus on Art Brut, as well as other forms of ethnological and/or folk art. His eclectic collection bears witness to his insatiable curiosity and the interest he has taken in both internationally recognized artists and young artists whose works are still little known. His self-taught yet confident sensibility has afforded him free rein in the selection of pieces, allowing him to bring together an independent collection freed from the traditional norms of art history. His commitment to the art world and the relationship he maintains with the artists in his collection make him a passionate and exciting collector.
The artworks in Antoine de Galbert’s collection are regularly presented in exhibitions in France and overseas alike. He has also made several significant donations to a number of prestigious collections including those of the Musée des Confluences in Lyon in 2017 (the donation of 530 headpieces), the Musée de Grenoble in 2023, as well as the Centre Pompidou, Château d’Oiron, and Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon.
Designed in close collaboration with Antoine de Galbert, this exhibition at the macLYON features over 250 works, showcasing the wealth and singularity of his collection.

Mark Dion @ The Bird Show, Eres Foundation, April 11 – July 27
The Bird Show
Birds between freedom, war and quantum mechanics
11 April – 27 July 2024 | ERES Foundation
Birds fly wherever they want, unbound, independent, regardless of national borders. And yet they sometimes get caught between the fronts, as the recent case of a pigeon released in India, which is said to have been spying for China, shows. The symbol of peace as a secret agent on behalf of rival powers?
This spring, the ERES Foundation is focussing on the biology, anatomy and symbolism of birds. The enormous diversity of the more than 10,000 bird species worldwide is concentrated in a dense synopsis of contemporary art positions, which focuses on the attractive symbolic power of the animals as identity-forming creatures as well as their brilliant sensory perception and their inner magnetic compass. This has made them useful assistants to the military in a wide variety of wars, from the Crusaders to the present day. The unique physique of birds and their ability to navigate fascinate engineers and AI experts alike, making hawks and chickens role models for new developments in bionics and robotics. The exhibition also follows the spectacular migration of birds, the secret of which, according to the latest studies, is probably also rooted in quantum mechanics. Birds connect habitats, resources and biological processes, but their outstanding adaptability is also at risk in times of global species change.
The ERES Foundation gallery becomes an “aviary of diversity”, where “dirty parrots” meet “famous pigeons”, while flamingos duck away under imaginary fire and canaries warn of poison gas. The show invites to go birding – without binoculars!

BOOK LAUNCH: Mladen Bizumic, Afterlives I Saturday, February 17
Georg Kargl Fine Arts is happy to launch the artist book Afterlives by Mladen Bizumic.
Book Launch
Saturday, February 17, 15.00-17.00
Introduction by Stephen Zepke at 15.30
Mladen Bizumic approaches his artist book Afterlives as a means of production, presentation, and reproduction of art. Alongside a selection of his projects (ALBUM, MoMA's BABY, EQUALITY and COPIA), realized between 2017 and 2024, the book features an in-depth essay by philosopher Stephen Zepke, and Bizumic's interview with art historian Joan Levin Kirsch (who worked at MoMA and the Smithsonian) about her lesser-known, innovative role that led to AI, satellite imagery, and digital photography.
Afterlives can be seen as an autonomous book. When presented within the context of Bizumic's current exhibition COPIA: Collection of Post-Industrial Arts, the book provides further insights into the artist's new, critical reflection on the questions of re-formation and re-valuation in the digital age.
Talk: Diedrich Diederichsen and Mladen Bizumic, January 17, 2024
We cordially invite you to a conversation between Diedrich Diederichsen and Mladen Bizumic in the context of Bizumic's exhibition COPIA: Collection of Post-Industrial Arts.
Wednesday, January 17 at 17.00
The critic Diedrich Diederichsen and the artist will talk about the relationship between exhibition-making, contemporary art, and critical writing. The conversation continues a discussion about the analog-digital shift, which they started during Bizumic´s PhD thesis Photo-capitalism: On Social Relations in the Production and Distributing of Contemporary Art, that was supervised by Diederichsen.

Camila Sposati, Breath Pieces (Part II)
curated by Bettina Korintenberg and Marcelo Rezente
November 03, 2023 - February 04, 2024
Opening: November 02, 19.00
Camila Sposati's exhibition in Berlin represents a renewed voyage into the profound intricacies of sound, the natural world and the symbiotic interweaving of culture, history, science and politics.
As her first comprehensive solo exhibition in Germany, Breath Pieces marks a significant milestone for Sposati. One of the intriguing sources that informs Sposati’s work is the anatomical theatre and the profound experience of dissection. Anatomical theatres, born during the European Renaissance in the late 16th century, were specialised lecture halls designed for the meticulous dissection and examination of cadavers. These venues played a pivotal role in advancing medical education and deepening the understanding of the human body. For Sposati, the act of dissection transcends mere historical annotation, becoming a philosophical construct predating the very physicality of these theatres.
Showcasing 15 pieces, a result of her research in different territories and cultures, the exhibition unfolds as a meticulous dissection in itself, with Sposati probing into the annals of history, materials and elemental forces. The show commences with an exploration into crystals, continues with an artistic metamorphosis inspired by the perpetual blaze of Darvaza (a natural gas crater in Turkmenistan that has been burning continuously since 1971), delves into the anatomy of the anatomical theatre and crescendos with the instrument series Phonosophia an intricate artistic exploration into the relations of instruments, the player and the sound.
Sposati's emphasis on discerning the intrinsic nature of sound in Phonosophia elevates it beyond a mere auditory and tactile experience, viewing it as an evolutionary mode of communication across generations. The wind instruments of ceramic and Amazonian natural rubber balata with metal mouthpieces central to the second part of the exhibition, undergo a transformative process in Berlin, assuming a character that defies conventional cultural categorisations. They cease to be mere instruments, evolving into enigmatic entities that actively challenge preconceived cultural notions, dictating the terms of engagement with the observer.
Fundamental to Sposati's artistic philosophy is a compelling call for a paradigm shift in the perception of objects, particularly those of ethnographic significance. She contends that objects should not be subject to the passive regulation of the observer, rather, that they themselves should dictate the terms of their observation. This meaningful shift in perspective imparts an active agency to the objects, guiding the observer through clandestine layers of meaning uniquely unveiled within the context of Berlin. "Breath Pieces" invites the viewer to reevaluate the intricate interplay between elements, history and the multifaceted human experience.
The first part of the exhibition Breath Pieces was on display in the ifa Gallery Stuttgart from May 13 - August 20, 2023.

Booth 2.10
Georg Kargl Fine Arts presents works by Jakob Lena Knebl and Mercedes Mangrané.
The work of Jakob Lena Knebl engages with historical references, reimagining them in new ways, to consider how we construct meaning in our present. Having established a unique art-historically argumentative language that revolves around questions of corporeality, her work crosses boundaries between art, design, high and low culture, which echoes the fluid movements of identity. Paraphrasing "La grande baigneuse" (1947) by Henri Laurens, Knebl transforms the voluptuous female nude with erotic charisma into a cute, cuddly transgender configuration. Works from the 49th Venice Biennale by the artist are part of our presentation.
Mercedes Mangrané examines the embeddedness of cultural production within our daily lives. Mined from habitual encounters and translated into subconscious landscapes, the paintings explore the sensory conditions of such experience through the vibrations that occur within matter and shifts in tonal gradient. Traversing both a lightness and density of material, she engages a dialectic between instances of everyday occurrence and systems of cultural power, that reflects on the movements amidst finitude and transformation, form and formlessness.

Georg Kargl Fine Arts is delighted to announce the solo exhibition In the Pictorial Code by David Maljković at Quetzal Art Center. At the core of Maljković’s practice is a regimented exploration of formalist concerns. Whilst narrative is the driving element at the origin of a project, the artist’s varied means of visual implementation consistently and profoundly modifies and compromises its supremacy, whether that is through photography, video, sculpture, installation, collage or painting. In the Pictorial Code presents recent works that play with the idea of painting as a guardian of time and the painter’s position as its witness. The exhibition establishes a marking system that embodies the image’s position within the author’s practice, and also tracks its displacement into other media.

Over the souls of those submerged beneath
That mess, is an outlandish, vicious beast,
His three throats barking, doglike: Cerberus.
From The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri
Inferno, Canto VI
(translated by Allen Mandelbaum, Berkeley, 1980)
Sára Röth was born in Hungary, grew up internationally, lives and works in Vienna.
Doris Krüger is an artist, part of the artist duo Krüger & Pardeller, curator and lecturer at the University of Applied Arts Vienna.

An exhibition series by the institute Transmedia Arts, University of Applied Arts Vienna at Georg Kargl Permanent
At the invitation of Georg Kargl Fine Arts, Jakob Lena Knebl and team of the Transmedia Arts department designed an exhibition series with students at Georg Kargl PERMANENT, running from April to December 2022.
The seven-part series is curated by the team of the class Transmediale Kunst, University of Applied Arts Vienna. The exhibitions present works by students that have a kinship to their own artistic practice, as well as expertise of the individual members of the team. The approach is to make the diverse thematic fields and the methodological diversity of Transmedia Arts visible to a broad public.

Round table | KELET: The East, the West and All That In-between @Georg Kargl Fine Arts

Saturday, September 10 at 18.00
at Georg Kargl Fine Arts.
The topic of this year's Curated by festival with its proposed Kelet-Nyugat / East-West dichotomy seems resurgent, slippery and polemic. How can one think about the local and the regional in the current sociopolitical moment without (re)producing spatial formations and divisions as well as perpetuating existing clichés about artistic practices from the East or the West?

CARTER @ ARCO E-XHIBITIONS
Georg Kargl Fine Arts is proud to present a selection of paintings by American artist and filmmaker CARTER.
In his complex collaged paintings, CARTER integrates various materials such as threads, towels and embroideries, parachute cord and patches. Materials that have a story of their own by referring to their previous life. While assembling them to new meaning, the artist forms a personal reference system. The paint as well as the ‘ready-mades’, create a hybrid collage in form of an abstract painting. With isolated figurative markings and abstract styles, these reflections on painting show the process as well as an evocation of fragmented identities. The multi-layered and subtly variated colored paintings depict faces, meticulously sewn eyes, wide opened mouths with brightly colored lips and teeth, stuck out tongues and floating heads. In general, it is a socio-political transformation of identity construction that CARTER is interested in. His works on canvas form lively patchwork carpets of personal symb in olism. Informed by a decades-long interest in the tropes of traditional portraiture, Carter punctuates his multi-textural pieces with facial expressions divorced from the physical body. In more recent paintings, such as „The Past/Next One Hundred Years“, the multi-colored spectrum is intensified and focused on a complex multi-layered painted composition.
Our presentation pays tribute to an artist that has achieved an unique, distinctive and individual style in reference to his artistic predecessors and his own American tradition.
CARTER´s work has been included in exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Whitney Museum of American Art, Tate Modern and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, among others.

CLEGG & GUTTMANN @ ARCOmadrid E-XHIBITION
We are pleased to present a historical body of work by Clegg & Guttmann. The presentation includes thirteen ’constructed photographs’ from 2002 and an earlier work, "The History of Photography" from 1984. Eight of the ’constructed libraries’ are sampled photographs of selected books on topics related to anarchism, cubism and syncopated music from libraries in Vienna and New York. The background image of the five photographic portraits are various portraits by Clegg & Guttmann, on which facial parts of anarchists (Goldman, Bakunin, Kropotkin), cubists (Picasso, Gris) and musicians (Joplin, Stravinsky) were transplanted.

print on aluminium foil, Ed. 20 + 10 AP
94,5 x 71 cm
David Maljković´s PART 8: EDITION Afterlist follows the artist’s exhibition on view at our gallery and his interventions at our website during May-June 2020.
Afterlist spins around a network of different signs, fragments, transformations, and references. It highlights the ambiguous, open relationship to the finished work, which challenges development and novelty, examining the possibility of otherness, variance and inconsistency as driving principles.
Afterlist attempts to allow multiple readings of the work, depicting practice as it evolves and transitions as well as relationship towards the complexities of time, self-referentiality, the use of earlier works as material and the exploration of the nature of the gaze.
