Una Björg Magnúsdóttir

Una Björg Magnúsdóttir’s (b. 1990, lives and works in Reykjavik) interdisciplinary practice encompasses installations, sculptures, drawings, and time-based media. The artist often plays with the familiar and the banal. Everyday objects and associated patterns of behaviour and mechanisms of perception are torn out of their familiar cosmos by the artist and implanted in a completely […]

Chia-Yi Chen

The installations by Taiwanese artist Chia-Yi Chen (born 1992 in Taipei, Taiwan, lives and works there) appear like miniatures of urban landscapes. This impression becomes all the clearer when one realizes that the materials the artist uses are actually by-products of urban life: Styrofoam packaging, waste paper, painter’s fleece. Only a few objects are recognizable […]

Peter Rosemann

Image, mirror, fiction, illusion – representations of reality are often not what they seem. Whether in timeless black-and-white or lively colours, whether documentary or experimen-tal, whether representing or interpreting, whether constructed or staged: photographic portraits are never merely objective but potentially reveal a person’s inner life. In other words, they possess not only an external […]

Claudia Hart

USA 2004-2005, 60 min Claudia Hart’s series “Timegarden” reflects on the embedding of technology in modern life and man’s attempt to dominate nature instead of adapting to it. By exploring the aesthetic possibilities of digital time dilation, growth algorithms and fractal geometry, the work visualises the purely subjective nature of time. In “Timegarden 02”, the […]

Kolk’s work revolved around questions of identity, initially through small-format drawings and later through large-format collages combined with painting. The exhibition at Künstlerhaus Bethanien, featuring Douglas Kolk’s works from the […]

Neozoon

NEOZOON SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE 3:36 min D 2016 The experimental found-footage collage SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE is based on digital greeting cards from big-game hunters. These animated GIF files, which are exchanged between the hunters, reproduce the minimal movement of shaking hands in a ghostly loop in which the hunted prey coagulates into a staffage against […]

Eric Leiser

The Anthropocene is compelling us to re-evaluate our perception of time. It forces us to confront the inexorable march of climate change, which is systematically reshaping the very fabric of our cities and landscapes. In stark contrast to this relentless transformation, Eric Leiser’s “Pinnacles” emerges as a contemplative work, a minimal yet monumental film dedicated […]

Yann Annicchiarico

When you enter the exhibition to the stranger within by Yann Annicchiarico at Künstlerhaus Bethanien, you are initially confronted with an impression of emptiness. This is underlined by a diffuse light atmosphere that resembles a state of twilight. Only a little light penetrates through the gaps in the black Molton curtains. Only on closer inspection […]
