23. Sept 17-22h feat. Heather Green
30. Sept 17-22h feat. Sun Worship/Nashmeh

Sculpting Inside is a six part hybrid performance work by Aleks Slota and Florian Feigl. Points of departure are their shared interests in nature & landscape, paintings by Caspar David Friedrich, and black metal. The live performances, installation works, sound pieces, and video works engage with forces of nature, noise, and darkness. Over a period of six weeks the durational presentations travel through three different venues, each time featuring various bands and musicians whose performances are interwoven with the work of Slota and Feigl. Each presentation is singular – one fragment out of six celebrating the unique encounter of creative forces.

Sat, 23 Sep 18-20h Workshop Haunted Waters with Nonhuman Nonsense at Galerie im Turm -- Add to my map
In this workshop, we will join forces and become ghost hunters! We will go through imagination, storytelling, drawing and writing exercises to visualise invisible ghostly contaminants. We will explore bodies of water that are “haunted” by chemical contamination. Contaminants are substances that due to different factors have ended up in our waters. Just like ghosts, they are invisible to the naked eye, relate to local historic events and are trapped in places where they aren’t meant to be. We are attempting to make the invisible contaminants visible.

Sun, 24 Sep 15-17h Kiki Gebauer: Aus der Balance at Ev. Kirchengemeinde

coffee and cake on the grass by the installation- on view until 29 Oct 2023
 A cross-connection is highly stable and of great importance in statics. In this case, it is arranged asymmetrically. But what happens when the balance gets out of hand? - What happens when equally strong forces are no longer held in the middle? - How much strength is necessary to maintain balance? - How long does the stabilizing effect of the cross-connection last? - What if one direction falls, does the other fall too? - What does such a cross symbolize? With a purely abstract symbol, Kiki Gebauer raises many questions that can be directly applied to our society. With her cross sculpture in front of a church, there are more of them than in front of any other building. The cross can be seen until October 29th as part of the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district's 'City Finds Art' campaign.

Sun, Sept 24th / 13 - 18 h AN-PETER E.R. SONNTAG: MAISSCAPE-PROJECT PHASE #1: S_ON
an immersive infrasonic concert installation for a circle of 24
The MAIsCape project is brought to light for the first time in a circle, in the open field at the gates of the city – independent, in nature, but connected by a shared experience. The seating sculpture allows an unobstructed view of the landscape and pure access to the full spectrum of electroacoustic compositions.

A specially designed control and amplifier network feeds not only 24 studio headphones but also the 24 cantilever chairs with their unique impact sound seating surface to provide a simultaneously collective and solipsistic sound experience of the highest quality: maximum fidelity in every seat, while providing total silence for the surroundings.

INVENTORY at Galerie Georg Nothelfer Opening of I – Add to my map
archiv SANDER I SCHAAL in community with Eduardo Chillida, Christo & Jeanne-Claude, Galli, Gerhard Hoehme, Walter Menne, Robert Motherwell, Max Neumann, Georges Noël, Arnulf Rainer, Richard Serra, Fred Thieler

The two Berlin-based artists Finja Sander (*1996) and Daniel Schaal (*1990) take the exhibition title INVENTORY literally and embark on an open-ended exploration of selected positions from the collection of Galerie Georg Nothelfer. The artists work both independently and under the collaborative name archiv SANDER I SCHAAL. For INVENTORY, Sander and Schaal selected eleven different artists from Galerie Georg Nothelfer, who are initially juxtaposed during a happening with the two artists' mere pool of material. Then Sander and Schaal radically expose themselves to the curated works: Several days a week, they will work through the selection, visible to the public at all times, developing confrontational strategies in a multimedia manner. The initial rational inventory thus becomes a daring undertaking with an open end.
In mid-October, the works created by the two artists will be juxtaposed with the existing pieces. A second opening marks the transition between the working phase and the final presentation.

Sat, 16 Sep 13-18h at L40 Opening Lena Marie Emrich: soft cruelties - Add to my map

Whether Venice, Sardinia or Uluru - places where beauty becomes a curse are rapidly increasing. Overtourism but also exaggerated expectations are becoming the norm in the race to travel the world. Lena Marie Emrichs' exhibition soft cruelties revolves around the resulting construction of reality, fiction and speculation. In particular, Emrichs illuminates those moments in which the pursuit of individual pleasure comes into conflict with moral principles. The title thus describes that uneasy feeling that we know will inevitably arise when we decide not to pay the 1.99 euros for CO2 compensation when booking a flight. 

For this latest production, the artist has developed sunshades, sand-coloured inlaid pictures, wishing wells and a bench from the Garden of Eden from everyday objects and materials that she has taken out of their context, manipulated, recreated and/or over-aesthetised. Characteristic is the use of technical materials in new contexts. Polished surfaces, maple, bamboo, coloured sprinkles - in the new works, a cool yet poetic formal language meets materials from contrary fields of application. The palette ranges from a high-quality architectural material HIMACS to a group of slightly trashy parasols made of plastic raffia to large-format window films. Despite all realism, the individual works remain mostly associative and suggestive in the group, so that in the end the question remains whether we are not all terrible tourist? But first: Welcome to Paradise by Lena Marie Emrich.

David Schnell, Flyer at Eigen & Art Berlin
[…] The perspectives in David Schnell’s pictures have changed: What the gaze once saw before it, the strict pull from all edges of the space into the middle of the radiant world, a view from the central eye of the observer, is now replaced by an overview down from above. From the tower, from the apex of the pyramid, from an inexorable camera circling in the sky? An observation absolved from the human point of view, as taken by machines. It is the view of the angel of history. […]

OLD BERLIN POSTERS Jonathan Monk at einBuch.haus Opening — Add to my map

With a tongue-in-cheek approach, Jonathan Monk humorously combines Appropriation Art with autobiographical elements. Referring to earlier exhibition and book projects, Monk is showing paper work conceived especially for einBuch.haus, which will be realized both as a wall installation and as an artist’s book. In this project, Jonathan Monk refers to the publication OLD VIENNA POSTERS by Martin Kippenberger, published by the Grazer Kunstverein in 1992. Kippenberger’s book is composed of a poster board divided into A4 pages, originally on view in Graz, depicting the space of a Viennese bar with advertising posters. In OLD BERLIN POSTERS, Monk uses his own collection of German movie posters from the period 1979-1981.
