KINDL is opening two new shows during Berlin Art Week:
In her paintings, drawings, sculptures, and installations, the British artist Emma Talbot (* 1969 in Stourbridge, lives in London and Italy) explores existential questions. For the 20-metre-high Kesselhaus at the KINDL, she is developing a site-specific installation consisting of paintings on silk, sculptural ensembles, and hanging objects, in which archaic voices are brought back to life: Furies, sirens, oracles, witches, and spirits warn of the environmental and political disasters of our present. They tell a story of toxicity and healing and point to alternatives that make a positive future conceivable.
The exhibition POLY. A Fluid Show proposes a new, polycentric culture that moves away from monoculture (monogamy, minimalism, specialization). POLY. A Fluid Show brings together works by eleven international artists who work across disciplines, with painting as a point of departure. They address hustling, mixing, and queering, which overcomes and dissolves boundaries between countries, genders, age groups, digital and analogue cultures, and materials.
Galerie Wedding is presenting the exhibitions Polychrome, Polymorph, and Polyharmony. POLY. A Fluid Show thematically corresponds with Emma Talbot. In the End, the Beginning in the Kesselhaus at the KINDL.
