„New Frankfurt Internationals“ ist ein besonderes Ausstellungsprojekt, das als wiederkehrendes Format im Jahr 2010 vom Frankfurt Kunstverein initiiert wurde. Die Idee dahinter ist einen Fokus auf das große in der Region vorhandene künstlerische Potential zu richten und Künstler zu präsentieren, die in Frankfurt und der Rhein-Main-Region leben und/oder studiert haben und zum Teil bereits zu den „new internationals“ im Kunstbetrieb gehören.

Kunst aus Frankfurt und der Region im Fokus

Die 2. Ausgabe von „New Frankfurt Internationals“ wurde durch den Frankfurter Kunstverein (FKV) und dem Nassauischen Kunstverein Wiesbaden (NKV) konzipiert und ermöglicht so eine Ausdehnung der Präsentation von der Stadt Frankfurt über die Landeshauptstadt in die Region. Unter dem Titel „Solid Signs“ sind an beiden Orten Malerei, Skulpturen, Fotografien, Zeichnungen, Videos, Installationen und Performances von 41 Künstlern und Künstlergruppen zu sehen. Eine Vielzahl der Werke wird dabei für die Ausstellung neu produziert.

Solid Signs: Material und künstlerische Techniken werden neu bewertet

Inhaltlich knüpft „New Frankfurt Internationals: Solid Signs“ an das schon seit längerer Zeit zu beobachtende Interesse vieler Künstler an der physischen Präsenz von Kunstwerken und der Wiederbelebung traditioneller künstlerischer Techniken und Materialien an. Gerade eine jüngere Künstlergeneration setzt sich wieder verstärkt mit der Materialität von bildnerischen Mitteln und deren jeweiligen Ausdrucksqualitäten auseinander. Dabei hat für sie die stoffliche Dimension die gleiche Wichtigkeit wie die Ausführung und der Inhalt eines Kunstwerkes.

„New Frankfurt Internationals: Solid Signs“ wird ermöglicht und gefördert durch das Kulturamt der Stadt Frankfurt am Main und den Kulturfonds Frankfurt RheinMain.

I LOVED THEIR WORK BECAUSE IT MADE ME WANT TO MOVE (OUT OF THE SCREENING ROOM AND INTO THE VOID). I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO ONLY SEE THEIR VIDEOS IN MUSEUMS OR GALLERIES WHERE THEY WERE AT LEAST COGNIZANT ENOUGH TO TURN OFF THE HARSH FLOURESCENT TUBE LIGHTS KILLING ANY HOPE OF A CASUAL OR INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP TO THE WORKS AROUND US. THEIR WORK FELT SO MUCH MORE APPROPRIATE FOR AN EXPERIENCE WITH, LIGHTS, SETS, COSTUMES, LESS IN THE THEATRICAL SENSE THAN IN THE CLUB SENSE. WHEN THE LIGHTS WERE OFF I WATCHED IN AWE, PARTIALLY TRANSPORTED AND PARTIALLY VERY VERY AWARE OF THE LIMITS OF THE SITUATION. REALLY HOPING THE PUNCH IS SPIKED WITH MOLLY… AFTER THE SCREENING ENDED THE LIGHTS RETURNED AND THE SPACE I WAS TRANSPORTED TO ABRUBPTLY ENDED. WE ALL WENT OUT AFTER TO ONE OF THE 10 KITCH OR DIVE BARS THAT ONE EXPECTS TO GO TO AFTER AN EVENT SUCH AS THIS.

FROM WHITE WALLS WITH WHITE LIGHTS TO BRICK WALLS WITH TUNGSTEN YELLOWS AND NEON PINKS UNIMAGINITELY REPLICATED FROM THE CATALOGUE OF AVAILABLE 'BAR' AESTHETICS.

I MET NEARLY EVERY ONE I KNOW AT NIGHT. A TIME/PLACE AMONG THOSE WHO SIMULTANEOUSLY LIVED WITH AND IDOLIZED EACH OTHER WITHOUT MOURNING DECADES PAST. A PLAYGROUND OF CAREER AESTHETES, QUEENS (OF ALL VARIETY), INTERNET PERSONALITIES, AND ARTISTS WHOSE WORKS I ONLY WITNESSED IN STERILE ROOMS IF AT ALL - YOUNG AT HEART IF NOT IN SPITE OF YEARS ACCRUED.

I OFTEN FOUND MYSELF WANTING TO RE-VISIT A FIRST ENCOUNTER [NICE TO MEET YOU *KISS, KISS*] - TO FIND THEM IN THE SPACES THAT MOST EMBODY THEIR IMAGINATIVE TOPOS.

I LOVED THEIR WORK BECAUSE THEIR INSTALLATIONS INVITED ME TO PLAY IN THEM - TO DRESS FOR THEM AND GIFT THEM THE POTENCY OF MY INTOXICATION. TO PLAY IN THEIR WORLD AS PART OF IT. REALLY TO PARTY, BUT NOT JUST TO PARTY.

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE WORK WHEN WE COMMUNE AT 1AM? HAS IT ALL DISAPPEARED INTO THE HANDS OF BUYERS OR BEEN RETURNED TO STUDIOS TO BE LOCKED AWAY?

I LIKE THEIR WORK BECAUSE IT ARTICULATES A POSSIBILITY I HAVE YET TO SEE IN THE SOCIAL EXPERIMENT WE INDULGE SO MANY NIGHTS IN AND OUT. THE TEXT ELUCIDATES A REFERENTIAL MATRIX THAT TICKLES MY LUNGS AND UNLEASHES JUST ENOUGH ADRENALINE TO WANT TO CREATE A SPACE THAT I MIGHT EXPERIENCE ALL THE FIRST ENCOUNTERS AGAIN. AS IF THEY WROTE WITH A STAGED WORLD IN MIND. BEYOND GOLDEN OR GILDED ERAS…

THE SPACES I GREW UP DREAMING OF INHABITING WERE DIGITAL - SIMS CLUBS, LABRYNTH AND UNDERWATER WORLD SCREEN SAVERS, PLAY-PLACE STRUCTURES IN FLASH ANIMATED SITES WHOSE CONTENTS TOOK UP TO 20 MINUTES TO LOAD, GEO-CITIES WITH HIDDEN SPACES AND JOURNEYS TO NEW A/V EXPERIENCES IN IMAGE MAPPED COORDINATE LINKS. THE VISUAL, SONIC AND SCULPTURAL POTENTIALS OF A SPACE WERE ALL IN SPITE OF THE CORPORATE EARMARKING OF THE REAL SPACES AROUND ME AND NOW THE SAME IS TRUE OF BOTH.

WHEN I FIRST MOVED TO NEW YORK IT SEEMED LIKE EVERYONE HAD GIVEN UP ON THE ENDEAVOR ALTOGETHER, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE NIGHT. YET EVEN HERE, THE FLYER WAS THE AESTHETIC, PRE-LOADED WITH REFERENCES, COORDINATES FOR GOOGLE SEARCHES AND TUMBLR TAGS. YET THE SPACES WERE BARREN, EPHEMERAL: A LASY LASER AND FOG MACHINE.

WHAT WOULD THEIR WORK BE IN NOCTURNAL SPACES WITH DILUTED EYES FIXATED ON IT SURROUNDED BY CIGARETTE SMOKE ON A SWEATING WALL WITH SWEATING BODIES GRIPPED BY OUTFITS THAT GIVE GIFTS TO THE SPACE AROUND IT?

I'VE ALWAYS FELT IT AN EXPERIMENT IN POSTURING ALTERNATE WAYS OF IMAGINING MYSELF. FEELING PUSSY, PERCHED, BUT NEVER PARCHED, DRINK IN HAND I STRETCH INTO AND THROUGH STAR SCATTERED SPACES, WETHER IN BED-STUY, AT HOME SWEET HOME, OR THE SHIFTING STRING OF VAGUELY RECEPTIVE VNUES, PUSHING THE WEIGHT OF MY HIPS, LIMBS AND EXTREMITIES IN SYNCHRONIZED AND ELASTIC MOTIONS, I PRANCE AND LEAPED MY WAY THROUGH A SUPERNOVA REMNANT MADE OF LINGERING BURSTS OF LIGHTWAVES FROM CAMERA FLASHES PAST, REFRACTED THROUGH SHATTERED HANDLES OF WELL VODKA ILLUMINATING AN EXPANDING MASS OF DUANE READE MAKE-UP AND CIGARETTE ASH PUSHED FORWARD BY THE PULSE OF CELESTIAL SUBWOOFERS AND FOREGROUNDED BY A FLOATING MASS OF SHADE FROM SHITTY FAGGOTS, ANGRY BIDDES AND DISENFRANCHISED BROS.

CD-release: [Baskaru] Celer, Achim Wollscheid & Bernhard Schreiner

ACHIM WOLLSCHEID & BERNHARD SCHREINER - CALIBRATED CONTINGENCY
NEW CD OUT NOW

When you saw those two names – Achim Wollscheid and Bernhard Schreiner – side by side on a piece of paper, you probably thought "Of course, this collaboration makes so much sense!" Unless you went "Who?"

True, Wollscheid and Schreiner are not what you would call household names of the experimental music scene. Although the former gained serious "street" credit on the Industrial scene in the '80s with his moniker S.B.O.T.H.I. and his collaborations with P16.D4. Wollscheid also cofounded the influential production company/label Selektion. And in the '90s and early 2000s he published a string of brilliant albums of computer music and avant-garde electronics on Selektion and Ritornell. For the past ten years, however, he has released very little music, focusing instead on sound art installations.

Schreiner is a photographer, filmmaker, installation artist, and musician. Like Wollscheid, he presents many more exhibitions than he releases records, and his work in both realms shows strong affinities with the Selektion man.

Calibrated Contingency consists in a continuous 47-minute live performance recorded in Graz in 2011. Both artists are using a computer and minimal external input devices (a boundary microphone, an induction coil, a radio). At the performance, each had a pair of stereo speakers, and all four speakers were arranged in a single line. This CD presents a stereo mix of that performance. And what a performance it is: a complex fabric of mangled frequencies, raw electricity, odd sounds, clips and glitches, woven loosely, with silent holes here and there. Dizzying and otherworldly...

...but isn't that what the sound of our world should sound like?

Negative hands

One might not know where to put one´s hands. There is a tradition of dealing with this in christianity called arching. The fingertips touch each other, it´s impossible to say which hand feels the other first.

We know she went to the caves of lascaux this summer. But her renderings are not of beautiful hunter gatherer hands, this is the deformed, sweaty and domesticated hand of the MENSCH.

„Sometimes she jokes about going to a party and just breathing, nobody finds it funny.“ Maybe the paintings were drawn on glass with fatty fingers and you had to breathe them visible.

Normally you can only see the spine of a human if something has gone wrong. If the spine of a book falls off the one is revealed to be made up of the many. The pages fall out like teeth from the cover mouth. To avoid this you could make everything white, write in invisible ink, let the teeth fall gently into snow.

There is a style of modern churches, normal after bauhaus. Translucence, a spiritual framelesness, symbolic frames trump real ones, smokey tape. It's temporary, you’re going to have to build a new one, it´s easy once you have the formula.

*note: at the insistence of certain of the artists, we return to Milton's Satan. We accept that modernism and post-modernism have been included from the beginning in what we know as romanticism. O.k. then Romanticism survives (still in a state of abject horror, no less) as those others fall away. But this is a romanticism shorn of nature, of hope, of extra-capitalist possibility. This is beyond the possibility of an Irish state. We are back at Satan, it seems, brooding over a cliff, looking good silhouetted by flames. England burns. -- mvs

Against collaboration. For competition. Inheriting not even Darwin, this new race of gods is more beautiful than we were. It is more childlike as well or will present itself that way. It shows advanced regression. These have bathed in the acid of the total critique. These know any dialectics fall from and upon the observer; in fact for them the language of dialectics is simply out of date. Philosophy's casual struggles? Merely to set the unconscious in play works wonders in that regard. This is a new commitment to hesitation. Its cynicism is unabashedly naive. One claw in the uncollectible, it is not site specific and depends on the imagination of everyone concerned. It rediscovers the late seventeenth century and avoids the late eighteenth. For these even salad equals death. There is only one bionormal human; the three others display the genetic flaws of the patriarchy. For them, the final degradation came in the nineties. In the inverse or Satanic post-apocalypse, unlike Endymion their fits of convulsions generate creation. That is not to say nothing prickles. Everything "prickles," when they set out, as in Hudibras (1666), "a-coloneling." The revolution has still not even been articulated properly. They will be imbedded in its wall. They walk like half-ghosts through a non-present world in a situation similar to that described by China Miéville in The City and The City (2009), and Jack Vance before him in "Ulon Dhor" (1950). In general, it is only the wider city that is at disadvantage in this situation. We are forever cut off from them. We have no idea what they have achieved in this regard. The self is an alien. A new pre-primitive; certainly, there is no relation at all to modernism. This neo-ancient in fact reaches like the sixteenth century back at least as far as the domestication of the fox, to volcanoed mosaics and first-documented alien landing-sites. Yet even now the shadow of the Crabber passes over like a scythe. A seriousness that makes it no longer quite safe to maintain the adolescence it calls for. What was once the wide open 3d grid of the model railroad set is now the existential prison of history. But what comes next? even as the oceans downgrade, clear cool water bubbles through their nose. Is it your imagination? Not exactly. Only in this drowned world, some would say (even against adversity of the sort that stalked Mrs. Milton and Aphra Behn), do they encounter the undiscovered countries they were created to misrule.

PELES AT WENTRUP, BERLIN, opening this thursday


Peles Empire

„DUO“

Opening: 27 November 2014, 6 – 9 pm 

Exhibition: 28 November 2014 – 17 January 2015

The source of Peles Empire’s artistic practice is connected with the provenance of its name in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania: Peles Castle. The eclectic building from the 1870s is distinguished by its uncommon concentration of the most disparate styles – each room imitates a different era in architectural history. Barbara Wolff (*1980) and Katharina Stöver (*1982) have worked together as Peles Empire for nine years – their photographic appropriations of this “edifice of copies” and their subsequent ongoing spatial interpretations of the source material constitute a central point of departure for their works. An important strategy used by Peles Empire is copying the copy; inherent as well is the process of translating something spatial into two-dimensionality, which ultimately again manifests itself in three-dimensional objects. Also significant is that although the original documentary image may sacrifice some of its figurative quality through the artists’ manual reproduction of particular parts of the image, it simultaneously gains spatial quality as an abstract object. Peles Empire shows the complex and – in the truest sense of the word – multilayered results of this method in their first solo exhibition at WENTRUP.

The exhibition title "DUO" first of all underscores the genuine connection between original and copy. The two concepts are interdependent and only attain their full meaning through the existence of the other. No copy without an original – needless to speak of originals if there were no copies. Peles Empire is interested precisely in the gap within this relationship, in the process itself, and particularly in the images and forms that the copying process gives rise to in the first place.

Their kinship with artists such as Gordon Matta-Clark, who used the deconstruction of architecture, the disassembling into fragments and uncovering of layers, as productive momentum, is apparent. At the same time, merely through the process of translation, Peles Empire is capable of creating something that Hito Steyerl has called “fractured and flexible temporalities” which, in contrast to Matta-Clark, are not conceived in terms of an ultimate form, but privilege the unfinished. All the more striking are the richly detailed structures that their objects display – possibly precisely because they are not created with finality in mind.

Peles Empire reproduces pictures of spaces in order to create new pictorial spaces from them. Their achievement in the translation lies not only in the transformations from two-dimensionality into spatiality and back, but also in how they are able to transport a real space into the digital realm and then retrieve it for the physical environment of the exhibition. In this context, they not only display the actual splinters and fissures of their sculptural process, but also make it possible to capture the aesthetic fracturings and foldings that are free to develop only within the gap between original and copy.

Their works have been recently shown in a solo exhibition at GAK Bremen, Germany and a group exhibition at The Moving Museum in Istanbul, Turkey. Previous solo exhibitions by Peles Empire in 2013 include Cell Project Space, London; Kunstmuseum Stuttgart, Germany; and GSS, Glasgow. They have also exhibited at Shanaynay, Paris, NKV Wiesbaden, Bundeskunsthalle Bonn, (all 2013), Temple Bar, Dublin; V22, London; and ‘Bold Tendencies’, London (all 2012). In 2011 they were selected for Frieze Projects at Frieze Art Fair, London. 2009 shows include ORTON.nl, Rotterdam. In 2007 they were invited by MAK Center for Art & Architecture at the Schindler House, Los Angeles to exhibit in ‘The Mystery of Life’, as part of their residency.

"Place" in Amsterdam


Place

Anna Ostoya and Barbara Leoniak

Opening Thursday, November 27, 2014, 6 – 9 pm

November 28, 2014 – January 17, 2015


During Amsterdam Art Weekend (November 27 - 30) Anna Ostoya will be present in the gallery on Saturday, November 29, at 1 pm for the signing of her book.

tegenboschvanvreden is pleased to announce the exhibition 'Place' featuring new works by Anna Ostoya and Barbara Leoniak. Ostoya exhibits two oil paintings and six mixed media compositions on canvas. Leoniak shows a series of sculptures in resin and paper. 'Place' is a continuation of the collaboration between these two artists that began with the exhibition 'Disclosures' at the Bortolami gallery in New York in 2013. The new works at tegenboschvanvreden evolve from Ostoya’s painting 'Place' and Leoniak’s sculpture 'Maidens', both shown in New York. The initial inspiration for these works was Ludwig Kirchner’s painting 'Potzdamer Platz' (1914), which depicts two streetwalkers in the middle of a busy intersection. The painting reflects a distinctly modern form of alienation in a world where war and money rule.

The paradoxes of contemporary alienation are the subject of the new exhibition: the collapsed sense of inside and outside; the confused sense of distance and proximity. Ostoya and Leoniak both engage in these troubled dualities. To them the title 'Place' signals a threat and a yearning to belong to a certain space or system. It stands for a lack of integrity and safety.

In her semi-abstract works 'Zoom 1' and 'Zoom 2', Ostoya paints close-up portraits of the streetwalkers. The double rendering of the image evokes the painterly tradition of repainting significant subjects while also referring to the photographic technique of zooming in and out. In the series of compositions entitled 'Place', Ostoya uses leftover materials from the previous exhibition together with acrylic paints and color pencils. The outlines of a hand appear in some of the compositions. This intensifies the tactile effect.

The anthropomorphic sculptures entitled 'Touchables' by Barbara Leoniak depict anonymous double heads. They are made of molds using strips of cardboard soaked in resin. The sculptures are reminiscent of store mannequins and of cyberspace avatars. Small shifts in the position of their necks and in the angle of their heads, together with variations in the texture of the surface, lend a personal aspect to each piece. A headless torso, another sculpture presented by Leoniak, underlines an uncanny sense of lost identity.

The works in 'Place' can be regarded as autonomous paintings and sculptures, but they can also be seen collectively, as an installation. The installation, with dim lighting and spotlights, conveys an atmosphere of the intangible.

Although Leoniak was Ostoya’s first artistic mentor, the exhibition presents this relationship as being polymorphous and nonhierarchical. Just as their appropriation of modern art gives greater emphasis to recurrence than to innovation, their dialogue stresses artistic communication rather than competition. Their work presents the history of art as a conversation, not a monologue.

Anna Ostoya is an artist living in New York. She graduated from the Whitney Independent Study Program in 2009. Her work has appeared in Manifesta 7, Rovereto, the 2nd Athens Biennial, and in other exhibitions internationally. Ostoya’s recent shows include 'New Photography 2013' at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and 'Transpositions' at La Kunsthalle Mulhouse. This is the second exhibition of the artist at tegenboschvanvreden gallery.

Barbara Leoniak is an artist living in Cracow. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts there in 1977. Her work was shown internationally in the 1980’s. She received a golden leaf medal in 1985 and a silver metal in 1990 at the Winter Sculpture Salon in Warsaw.
