Very happy to announce my next solo exhibition at erstererster gallery from 30 Oct till 03 Nov 2019.
This time I will show some pieces from my new three-part photography series # Instagramania, reflecting on the impact of social media on ourselves and the world around us.
The vernissage will be held at 6pm on 30 Oct 2019. Hope, to see you all there!
Had a great time on Friday strolling through Mitte, Schöneberg and Charlottenburg. Trying to get the most of this year’s Gallery Weekend before heading off to Munich on Saturday morning …
Great Irving Penn exhibition at C/O Berlin … The power of irritation and a simple backdrop … Loved it! #berlin #berlinstyle #museum #gallery #art #exhibition #inspiration #fun #betterliving #fredericwriter
The second half of the week I spent at Documenta 14. Although, this year’s Documenta was criticized a lot, I thought it was a superb exhibition. Very, very political in its nature with lots of art focused on migration and oppression issues. However, although this might not have been to many people’s taste, I believe that our times ask for artists being political and controversial, steering debate about issues that many politicians and media don’t want to touch.
Spent three wonderful days at Biennale di Venezia in Venice. Great start on day one with Peggy Guggenheim Foundation and an unbelievable exhibition by Damien Hurst at Palazzo Grassi. What a great and megalomanic idea.
The following two days were dedicated to the Biennale, with day two spent at the Arsenale and day three at the Giardini. Especially, Arsenale’s old warehouse buildings are a superb location and great backdrop for exhibiting the art on show – with the Lebanese contribution hidden at Arsenale Nord being a real highlight that only a few made an effort to see.
The pavilions at the Giardini are in very mixed shape, and the art on show – at least in my perception – did not match the level of those on show at the Arsenale. Here, the Austrian pavilion was a rare exception.
Visited a great vernissage at Evelyn Drewes’ gallery, showcasing some wonderful sculptures by Japanese artist Hirofumi Fujiwara. Remarkable works that sold very fast. Unfortunately my favorite work was already sold before the show began …
