Galerie Eigenheim Berlin10 Jahre Galerie Eigenheim – ein Jubiläum, welches uns veranlasst, eine Ausstellung zusammen zu stellen, die auf vielfältige Weise diese für uns so prägende Zeit reflektiert. In diesen Jahren wurden rund 400 Ausstellungen, Konzerte, Künstler- wie Kuratorenstipendien, Symposien oder Lesungen mit unzähligen Künstlern und Institutionen realisiert, und über 40 Publikationen im Eigenheim Journal of Culture veröffentlicht. Unmöglich hier eine Auflistung aller Ereignisse vorzunehmen, haben wir uns entschlossen, eine Jubiläumsedition in einer Auflage von 12 mit Unterstützung vieler Künstler als Hauptbestandteil der Ausstellung zusammen zu stellen. Individuelle Bezüge und Erinnerungen an die Galerie sollten die Grundlage für die jeweilige Arbeit sein.Künstler wie Daniel Caleb Thompson, Benedikt Braun, Julia Scorna und Enrico Freitag, die von Anfang an die Atmosphäre der Galerie prägten, und den Beginn mit wilden Utopien und wöchentlich wechselnden Ausstellungskonzepten miterlebten, sind genauso Bestandteil der Jubiläumsedition wie die Persönlichkeiten der Weimarer Kulturlandschaft Michael von Hintzenstern oder Peter Stechert, internationale Künstlerbekanntschaften wie David Ashley Kerr (AUS), Michaël Camellini (FR) oder Kathryn Gohmert (US), Lehrbeauftragte der Bauhaus-Universität Weimar Tom Ackermann und Nina Röder, unsere Hauskünstler Adam Noack, Stefan Schiek, Michal Schmidt, Martin Mohr und Christiane Wittig oder Beteiligte an den vielen Gruppen- sowie kuratierten Themenausstellungen, Künstler Residencies, Master- oder Doktorpräsentationen Julia Herfurth, Gerald sowie Martin Höfer, Marc Jung, Edith Kollath, Nele Möller, Anna Schimkat und Maja Linke.Wir laden ein, zu einer umfangreichen Ausstellung, die über die Präsentation der käuflich erwerbbaren Jubiläumsedition hinaus, die Arbeits- und Wirkungsweise der Galerie Eigenheim zeigt und ab Samstag den 21.Mai um 19 Uhr in der Galerie Eigenheim Berlin besichtigt werden kann. Wir freuen uns auf Ihren Besuch.

thank you so much to everyone that made it to the opening night of THE STROKE OF A PEN this past weekend at ifa gallery and joined to help celebrate the show.
this group exhibition is a collection of multi-disciplinary work and will be running from 21 february – 15 march at ifa gallery, brussels. each work is a separate response to events surrounding the recent charlie hebdo attacks and explores the theme of illustration: it’s power, it’s purposes and it’s limits.
images from the installation and vernissage are below.

“ifa gallery showcases a group of artists commissioned for the exhibition, THE STROKE OF A PEN, each artist interpreting the title as he or she sees best, whether figuratively or with more violent overtones.
christophe demaître melts photography techniques and ink with sensuality. zane mellupe explores the importance of line in the landscape with her marble sculpture. christopher paul gill’s collages underline the necessity of freedom of expression, as does susanne junker with her feminist-themed photographs.
kathryn gohmert’s drawings are the expression of the underestimated carnage that took place in baga, nigeria, on the same date of the charlie hebdo attacks. wu junyong and dai guangyu concentrate on the issue of ink in contemporary chinese culture. alexandre ouairy proposes in “blank project” a series of 100 silk-screen prints on art paper, all numbered and signed. the contract signed during their acquisition defines the artist’s moral right toward his artwork.”

it’s nice to feel that the energy and artwork are very much alive and present in the exhibition and studio spaces of the swatch art peace hotel, even as shanghai begins to get colder.
being able to see the artwork by some of my most favorite humans as their ‘traces’ are displayed together in one place is a great feeling. the work collected from the combined three years’ worth of past artists-in-residence that have lived and created at the saph in shanghai has completely invigorated the walls with new life.
thrilled to be living and working here again over this upcoming stretch of winter weeks ahead. below are images from the exhibition including a painting from my mixed media brain series, on display and in the catalog.
i am proud to announce my upcoming participation in module ii of AFFECT, agora’s program for collaborative artistic practices, in berlin to begin very soon.
fellow participating artists include: jol thomson, rune bosse, josé cori, aviv benn, alice bucknell, daniel almgrenrecén
the residency runs 11 july – 20 september for a total of 10 weeks], and is hosted in agora’s collective workspace inside berlin’s neukölln district.
i will be adding to the blog regularly during this time, keeping it up-to-date with news, images and updates on this project as well as details on its eventual exhibition and publication.
stay tuned for details – much more is on the way.
happy chinese new year! 中国新年快乐!
wishing you and your loved ones all the adventure, good energy and success the year of the horse has to offer: have a wonderful 2014.
祝你和你的家人们：在新的一年中，万事如意，马到成功.
