\nin the exhibition It Started with a Pear<\/p>\n
The evening opens with two book presentations: Ruti de Vries<\/strong> and Tracey Snelling<\/strong> present their newly published books, each offering a comprehensive look into their artistic practice. Ruti de Vries’s artistic practice resembles an ever-growing spiral, in which new motifs and materials continually merge into an enigmatic, recurring visual world, as currently seen in her exhibition Pocket Lines. Tracey Snelling, in turn, conveys an impression of specific places, their inhabitants, and their atmosphere through sculpture, photography, video, and installation\u2014often focusing on environments threatened by gentrification, political unrest, or erasure. The conversations will be moderated by Philipp Lange and held in English. <\/p>\n Following the book presentations, the exhibition It Started with a Pear <\/em>by No\u00e9 Duboutay<\/strong> will be activated through a performance. The characters of the girl, the horse, and the knight step out of the narrative into real space. Drawing on the medieval verse romance Le Roman de Silence, the resulting body of work questions socially prescribed roles and gender images and brings fluid forms of identity into view. <\/p>\n Afterward, we invite you to join us for a glass of wine from the cellar of the Luxembourg Embassy and further conversation.<\/p>\n We look forward to your visit!<\/p>\n The exhibitions Pocket Lines<\/em> by Ruti de Vries and It Started with a Pear<\/em> by No\u00e9 Duboutay will be on view at K\u00fcnstlerhaus Bethanien through August 9, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","categories":[],"class_list":["post-50214","kb_event","type-kb_event","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"article_image":50210,"article_image_bu_de":"\u00a9 Galya Feierman 2026","article_image_bu_en":"\u00a9 Galya Feierman 2026","datum_suche":"2026-07-30 00:00:00","event_subheadline_de":"","zusatz":"","event_start":"20260730","event_end":null,"event_timetable_de":"7\u201310 pm","ort":"","eintritt":"free, no registration required, Language: English","event_exhibition":[49894,49862]},"yoast_head":"\n
