KOSMOS OST with Annette Schröter

In mid-May 2020, the Dresden Albertinum opens a comprehensive retrospective on Ernst Barlach's 150th birthday, which is largely based on the inventory of the Ernst Barlach Haus. The anniversary project is an occasion for an East / West exchange: In return, the Albertinum borrows 60 works from its collection of art from the GDR. The presentation includes paintings and sculptures from the post-war period, "Socialist contemporary art" from the 1960s and 70s, and works by a younger generation of artists . There is a wide range of topics, styles and positions to be discovered - from the portrait of a worker to a pop art experiment, from factual to expressive, figurative to abstract, conformist to critical.How diverse and often ambiguous the visual worlds of East German art are in the West Little known even thirty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall. With works by 52 artists, the exhibition aims to contribute to broadening the view of the Eastern Kosmos. Works by Walter Arnold, Rudolf Bergander, Gerhard Bondzin, Hermann Bruse, Wieland Förster, Hubertus Giebe, Sighard Gille, Hermann Glöckner, Eberhard Göschel, Waldemar Grzimek, Harald Hakenbeck, Helmut Heinze, Bernhard Heisig, Bert Heller, Eugen Hoffmann, Petra Kasten, Siegfried Klotz, Rolf Krause, Gerda Lepke, Frank Maasdorf, Wolfgang Mattheuer, Paul Michaelis, Michael Morgner, Rudolf Nehmer, Willi Neubert , Otto Niemeyer-Holstein, Hans Heinrich Palitzsch, Ronald Paris, Uwe Pfeifer, Egon Pukall, Arno Rink, Theodor Rosenhauer, Wilhelm Rudolph, Cornelia Schleime, Wilhelm Schmied, Wieland Schmiedel, Baldur Schönfelder, Annette Schröter, Eva Schulze-Knabe, Jürgen Seidel , Gustav Seitz, Willi Sitte, Hans Steger, Werner Stötzer, Werner Tübke, Max Uhlig, Herbert Volwahsen, Dieter Weidenbach, Jürgen Wenzel, Christoph Wetzel, Willy Wolff and Walter Womacka.

ÜBERSEE BOOK FROM ANNETTE SCHRÖTER

Annette Schröter cuts her pictures, works with the cutter, paper, sprays, colored acrylic glass and wallpaper scraps. Since 2015, Annette Schröter has made several trips to South and North America, including Buenos Aires, Montevideo, New York, Vancouver and Montreal. Her impressions, especially of everyday culture, architecture and vegetation, are reflected in an extensive group of paper cuts. The "silhouette", a technique that is particularly known from the 18th and 19th centuries and was often used by laypeople, deliberately serves as a contemporary artistic expression. Schröter not only explores the diverse and previously underestimated possibilities of this technology. In her work, she also questions content-related and artistic clichés that we associate with the term ÜBERSEE. This comes from a time when people - obeying existential hardship - left their homeland, but on the other hand it always stood for the unreachable distance and the exotic unknown as the goal of all desires - for 28 euros with us or at MMKoehn Verlag

Moritz Götze and Rüdiger Giebler in the Tharangambadi Museum / India

On February 8, Moritz Götze and Rüdiger Giebler will open a new exhibition in the Tharangambadi Museum in India as part of their “Grand Tour” project. The location is not chosen by chance, since in 1706 there has been a mission station in Tharangambadi, whose missionaries came from Halle an der Saale, the hometown of Götze and Giebler. Every year in July, the residents of Tharangambadi commemorate the arrival of the first Lutheran missionaries Bartholomäus Ziegenbalg (1682–1719) and Heinrich Plüschau (1677–1752) on July 9, 1706 with a parade through the city. After their arrival, Ziegenbalg and Plütschau sought contact with the local people with great interest. This was the beginning of a unique dialogue that continues to this day. The MM missionaries laid the foundation stone for the beginning of printing in India in Tharangambadi. In 2017 the Ziegenbalg House Museum was opened, in which Moritz Götze and Rüdiger Giebler are now exhibiting.
